Divide and Dissolve 'Insatiable'
Divide and Dissolve return with their most emotionally expansive and sonically powerful album to date, 'Insatiable'. Led by Takiaya Reed, this release pushes the boundaries of doom metal with a visionary blend of sludgy guitars, ambient textures, and haunting saxophone work. Inspired by dreams of decolonial love and ancestral healing, 'Insatiable' is a meditation on destruction and compassion, channeling grief, loneliness, and resistance into a visceral sonic ritual.
Across ten mostly instrumental tracks, the album traverses monolithic doom, spectral jazz, and neoclassical shadows. Reed’s saxophone weaves through towering riffs and thunderous drums, while vocal debut on “Grief” adds a new layer of vulnerability. Pieces like “Monolithic” and “Loneliness” offer both catharsis and confrontation, calling for a rejection of colonial permanence and an embrace of radical transformation. 'Insatiable' is a profound, politically charged exploration of repetition as prayer and survival as joy—an invitation to build a new world from the ruins.
