Band Profile

This Silent Divide

Wellington rock band This Silent Divide arrived on the local scene in 2018 and mix driving drums, wall-of-sound guitars and melodic overtones to create catchy, high-energy songs.

2023 has seen the band gigging regularly including playing the iconic Wellington CubaDupa festival, ahead of the release of single 'Beautiful Creature' in May.

The well-produced, melodic rock song with big guitars and soaring vocals has received positive reviews, is being played on radio across New Zealand, the US, UK and Germany, and is accompanied by a dark and mysterious music video. 'Beautiful Creature' is commentary on society's desire to all-too-quickly write-off and punish people who lash out when pushed beyond their limits. The track was recorded at Wellington's award-winning Surgery Studios, produced by Toby Lloyd and mastered in Germany by Robin Schmidt (Placebo, Arctic Monkeys, Pixes, Royal Blood).

"A neatly polished single packed with hooks and energy" - Muzic.net.nz
