Listening to the opening minutes of Divide and Dissolve's third
full-length album 'Gas Lit' is like entering a concert hall where
the orchestra has gone home, but the spectral sounds of their
instruments being tuned still lingers around an empty chamber.
Strange noises feel like they could have existed for centuries,
waiting for a pair of ears to stumble upon them.
Melbourne-based two-piece Divide and Dissolve - comprising of
Takiaya Reed (saxophone, guitar, live effects) and Sylvie Nehill
(drums, live effects) - have composed a remarkable listen across
eight hair-raising, earth-splintering tracks of heavy doom, drone
metal and desolate jazz, produced with Unknown Mortal Orchestra's
Ruban Nielson. Whilst honouring their respective Cherokee and
Maori ancestries, 'Gas Lit' pines for a social utopia where white
supremacy and colonisation in all of its guises has been fully
dismantled.
The duo's road to utopia isn't untroubled, mind. From the
devastating opening saxophone shrieks flecked across the
cinematic drones of 'Oblique' like paint, to the same refrain
sparsely patterned across 'Denial', Divide and Dissolve at their
most pared back are brutally visceral. There's an unnerving magic
and beauty that plays throughout their harsh noise, like a dense
mist lifting off a still river. On 'Amorphous', pummelling drones
curl into a cathedral of sound, and by the album's ending, these
same sounds are stretched out to incongruity, clawing to be let
back in.
The only voice on the record enters abruptly in 'Did You Have
Something to Do with It': ôThe legacy of greed has grown from its
seed to infiltrate every place, every face.ö It's a startling
awake from the aural trance the duo conducts with their sludge
sermon. White supremacy grew, the voice says, ôfirst by attacking
the body, and then by distorting the mind,ö and Divide and
Dissolve are taking a similar sonic strategy to undo it.
Unrelenting heavy vibrations wash with the strength to pull you
under and taste the silt. Complacency is not an option.
The album's heavier moments steamroll, too: 'Prove It' funnels
into a slow and enveloping mass, whilst the shortest track on the
record, 'Far From Ideal', feels endless with infectious terror
and viscous riffs. That instrumental music can carry their social
plight so unmistakably is astonishing. Through glowing stasis and
solemn ceremony, Divide and Dissolve's sonics of despair and
destruction have been crafted into a remarkably life-affirming
experience, and it's never been more needed.
//
Note: Printed 2020 release on CD but the release date must have
been pushed back because it was not available to pre-order from
Invada until Jan 29th 2021.
