THE UNDIVIDED release new album ‘Safety’ THIS WEEK!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“The Undivided have a knack for writing anthemic songs as big as the

mountains that overshadow their hometown of Abergavenny!” Kerrang! Magazine

 

The South Wales music scene seems to show no signs of slowing it’s

incredible output. And Abergavenny based quartet THE UNDIVIDED are a

sparkling addition to the world conquerors that precede them. Built from

the same foundations as other Welsh wunderkinds such as Manic Street

Preachers, Funeral For A Friend and Stereophonics, the four guys who make

up THE UNDIVIDED describe themselves as ‘alternative music for awkward

people’. The band deal in anthemic indierock – dealing in huge grooves and

a passionate delivery that all but demands you DANCE!

 

The soaring guitars of ‘Wasted Time‘, the gentle caress of piano on

‘Safety’, the swagger of video single ‘7 Hours’

(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpWsXGmktBs&feature=youtu.be)… it all adds

up to a band that displays impressive confidence for ones so young. And

throughout each intelligent lyric and hook-laden chorus, there beats a

heart of pure pop magic.

 

Since their inception in 2009 The Undivided have gigged extensively

throughout the UK, developing into a mesmerising live act, and graced

stages with such luminaries as Ash and Excerts aswell as Razorlight and

Kids In Glass Houses at last months Merthyr Rocks. They have also played

live sessions for BBC Wales and received great reviews for their 2011 EP

‘Machines’ (recorded by Tom Manning – Feeder, The Last Republic etc).

 

Now in 2012, the band find themselves with high aspirations and a brand

new album to carry their message far and wide. ‘Safety’ was recorded at

the legendary Monnow Valley Studios with Tom Manning (Feeder, The Last

Republic) once more at the helm.

 

Catch the guys’ mesmerising live show at one of the following:

 

29th September – London, The Garage (headline show)

30th September – Cardiff, Clwb Ifor Bach (with Jim Lockey & The People The

Poet)

6th October – Newport City Radio Festival, Warehouse 54, Newport

 

“Don’t Panic. The Undivided are here to Save us!!” Plugged In Magazine

 

“If Biffy Clyro are this decade’s most innovative hardcore-pop combo, then

The Undivided are their wide eyed, sledgehammer-hook wielding younger

siblings, all skyscraper choruses and savvy, bruising power-pop

arrangements” Altsounds
