Darkness Divided
American metalcore band
Darkness Divided is an American Christian metalcore band from San Antonio, Texas, formed in 2010 by brothers Gerard, Christopher, and Joseph Mora. The band had released two studio albums through Victory Records as well as an independent EP.
History
Early years and formation (2010–2012)
As teenagers, the Mora brothers performed worship music together at their local church, mostly performing covers of contemporary worship songs. In 2010, the brothers changed genres and started Darkness Divided with original drummer Colby Moreno and second guitar/backup vocalist Joey Jiménez after becoming fans of metal music. The new band was named Darkness Divided after the Biblical verse Genesis 1:4, and is described by the band as a reference to finding hope in tough times.
Chronicles and Written in Blood (2012–2015)
In 2012, Darkness Divided released a 5 track EP entitled Chronicles, which was produced by Daniel Castleman.
Since releasing Chronicles, the band released two singles with accompanying music videos. Redeemer was produced with Daniel Castleman, while "Voyager" was produced elsewhere.
Prior to its release, Teen View Music stated that Written in Blood was Intelligently put together and expertly recorded, Written in Blood has the fuel and fire for a metalcore fan. It is obvious to me just by listening to the album that their live shows are electric with energy and absolute loads of fun. For fans of Christian metal, this is a must-have.
