Divorce preview debut album with new single, "Antartica"
Divorce have shared new single, "Antarctica", as the latest new music to be taken from their forthcoming debut album, Drive to Goldenhammer.
Commenting on the new single, co-vocalist and guitarist Felix Mackenzie-Barrow says: "I wrote 'Antarctica' at the end of a long and deeply important relationship as a way to self-soothe and make sense of the loss I was feeling whilst touring non-stop. Thinking of the silent indifference of that vast continent at the bottom of the world was and still is something of a meditation for me. Barry Lopez describes Antarctica as “utterly remote, even as you stand in it. The light itself is aloof.”
"The song also recounts an event that Tiger and I experienced, encountering a newborn calf in the middle of the road on a late night drive," he continues. "It felt urgent; the calf’s defenceless was impossible to ignore and we carried it back into the farm. There was a choice there. Did we rescue it from the road where it could have been hit by a human in a car or did we just send it back to be killed by a different human further down the line? Neither option feels good or makes any sense to me, but the feeling of its fur covered in afterbirth and the desperate cries of its mother is something I will never forget."
Drive to Goldenhammer is set for release on 7 March 2025 via Gravity / Capitol, and is available to pre-order now.
