Hello Everyone!!
We would like to thank you for all of your support over the years! We know we went silent for a while but, we are indeed back at it again! That being said there has been a few member changes since we last updated this. We are in the works with some new material that we are so excited to share with all of you as soon as we can! We have broadened our social media presence to sites like Tiktok and Instagram (just search Divinationofficialband and you'll find us!). Going forward we would like to interact with our fans as much as we can and as much as time will allow. If we can't get back to most of you we apologize in advance. We hope you continue listening to and sharing our music! Feel free to engage with us on our other sites as well! We are also back on Youtube so there will be more videos as time comes. Thank every single one of you for your continued support and we hope you join us in the journey to come!
Much love,

Good morning everyone. We hope the new year is starting of great for you.
So, as i said in the subject line for this message, we are pushing every avenue we can find to get our music out to the world and N1M has offered us the chance to reach an audience we may never have found before. I want to personally thank you for support us in what we do. It really means the world to me.
With that, i would like to recruit your help in pushing us out to the rest of the world... that starts with introducing other people to our music. How do you do that? simple... "like" us on Facebook at (expired link) is where it starts. Our Facebook page is our most frequently updated source on social media. We encourage people to interact with us there as well as stay knowledgable about what is going on with the band. We also request that through there, you send page suggestions to your friends who may enjoy our music.
As a bonus for those who like us on Facebook, in the very near future, there will be an opportunity posted there to download our current album for a significantly discounted price. not a bad thank you gift, right?
We are also performing rather well on ReverbNation, where we are currently the #45 metal band in the US!! we can continue to climb this chart with your help, which is directly affected by our Facebook traffic. To further help us gain higher rankings, if you click the "MyBand" tab on our Facebook page, you can stream both albums for free and watch our music videos without leaving Facebook! (no adds, no purchases, no anything... it's simply an app added to our page).
Again, thank you all so much for your support and I hope to see those number on our various social media pages increase.
Best Regards,
Brad

About Divination
Divination was formed in 1994 in Reading, PA., and originally conceived as a death metal band influenced by early Death Metal acts such as Deicide, Suffocation, and Malevolent Creation, but massive turnover and lineup changes eventually introduced unexpected influences from outside the strict Death Metal confines. The most recent guitar duo brought with them an arsenal of riffing ranging from more diverse styles including hardcore, thrash and progressive metal. Breaking out of their own self-imposed mold allowed them trim the fat from the “cookie cutter” death metal traditions. While keeping the speed and brutality of death metal, Divination was free to explore such things as melodic phrasing as well as sprinkles of hardcore breakdowns and black metal ferocity.
1999 saw the release of the self-produced Obsessed EP which met with limited local success and paved the way for opening spots with acts such as Pro Pain and Six Feet Under. Appearing on the Gimme the Medicine compilation CD and constantly pummeling audiences in the local club scene eventually attracted the attention of fledgling label DRP Records who signed the band in 2003. The new relationship provided the means to record and release the band’s first full length album, Three Nails of Fate, later in the same year. DRP Records later developed a relationship with Sky Records and inked a deal to include two tracks from Three Nails of Fate on From the Shadows...Metal for the Modern Era featuring Anthrax, Dillinger Escape Plan, and Mastodon. Since the release of Three Nails of Fate, Divination has shared the stage with a throng of national acts including the likes of Black Dahlia Murder, Cannibal Corpse, God Forbid, Into Eternity, and most recently the legendary Exodus, Testmant, IWRESTLEDABEARONCE, Six Feet Under, Suffocation, Cattle Decapitation and Believer.
Applying the lessons learned from the previous releases, and having a fresh vocal perspective provided a rebirth for the band allowing them to approach songwriting open to any and all ideas. The new material represented a risk for the band, unsure if their core fan base would embrace the new direction. Performing the new songs live before they were recorded proved that the risk was worth taking. Fans and peers alike expressed resounding enthusiasm for the band pushing themselves to the next level which fueled the band’s ambition to record The Age of Man. The freedom this album provides exposes the mere tip of the iceberg of what Divination has in store for their fans and future fans.
