### Divided Multitude: Guardian angel

#### 06/04/10 || Lord K Philipson

It’s easy as shit to start off a review of a band you never heard about by talking about their name. So, let’s see here… What kind of a fucken moniker is that? Divided Multitude?! Come the day when there’s a band called Added Longitude – that will be the end of it all. Anyways, one of the first things you prolly deal with when starting up a band is find a cool name for it, right? That should be of some sort of priority, I guess. It’s safe to say that these idiots have failed big-time moniker-wise. Penis Altitude would be a fucken better name. And if you have decided on a shit name for your band, why not choose something equally as shitty for the actual album title? Check. They did that too. Very impressive. “Guardian angel”, huh? Fuck are you, Dido or something?

I wish. Dido is ace.

Divided Multianus are from Norway and play some “progressive modern metal”, to quote their press sheet. We know that “modern metal” usually suck the cocks of elephants so how will we fare with the “progressive” tag added to it? Well, I have heard worse music in my life. DM likes Queensrÿche, Dream Theater and their pretentious colleagues. Sigh. Yeah, you know what yer in for now, I guess, and it’s not too fucken pretty.

Sure, they can obviously handle their instruments to some extent, and the vocalist isn’t terrible – but Dream Theater do this shit better and they are still completely uninteresting today/yesterday/tomorrow/always (except for the “Pull me under” track, ofcourse). Nah, this is not hitting any home-runs with me, sir.

Norway’s not known for bringing us much apart from black metal, suck-ass hockey players, Fleksnes and the occasional excellent death metal band (Zyklon, Blood Red Throne)… Oh, for shit’s sake – and the fantastic Bertine Zetlitz… Divided Multitude is doing very little to change that, but at least they are trying. When it comes down to it, I guess DM is a decent band with exactly zero originality and zero potential to become anything else than another yawn in the world of metal.

To quote a line from their song “Senses”: Why do I need you?
The answer is: I don’t.
