### Divine Eve: Vengeful and obstinate

#### 26/07/10 || Kampfar

The cover-art adorning this EP is very likely to have been painted by a Dutch dude who named himself Hieronymus Bosch. A brief search on the porn-ridden net, however, did not confirm this hunch of mine. If or if not, it doesn’t matter, for what you need to know is that Michael Connelly, a splendid author, named his protagonist after this Dutch painter I know very little about. Fuck my lack of knowledge, double penetrate it if you like, but after doing so, be sure to read everything mentioned mister has written.

Divine Heresy started out in 1992, before that known as Catharsis, and since then they haven’t been up to much. A couple of demos, one EP, and one compilation exactly. And if you count out that compilation out of the equation, I sure do, it has taken them 16 years, one six, to create and record the 4 songs found on this EP named “Vengeful and obstinate”. I’m not stupid enough to think they actually worked on these songs for that long, entirely braindead I am not, but now you anyways know that these guys enjoyed a hiatus probably mentioned in the Guinness Book Of World Records.

And now some words about their music.

What they are up to, all four of them, is best described as slow moving death with a hint of black. Or, according to others, doomy death with a hint of thrash. The reason I chose to label them the way I did, is simply because they remind me of IXXI at times. If you are clueless about IXXI, fucktard, hunt the Internet and loot all their releases already. I’m not going to urge you into doing the same when speaking Divine Adam And Eve, fuck Jehova, but we are not dealing with a shit orchestra here. In fact, I almost entirely enjoy myself when listening to their shit.

If you are horny for blasts, instrumental wizardry, and growls emerging from the pits of hell, you should however keep on looking. The vocals are located somewhere between thrash and black, no blasts are to be heard, and they never ever flabbergast anyone with their skills. So, we aren’t talking overly exciting music here, if you’ve listened to metal for more than a week you probably heard it all before, but even though originality isn’t part of their game, they don’t come across as an ensemble trying to emulate this or that band.

As always, fuck it all.
