Divine Chaos

» go to the music page for more
Divine Chaos is a rock quartet based in Regina, Saskatchewan. The group melds the raw urgency of punk with the melodic sensibility of pop music to create a sound that is all their own. Blurring the lines between genres, their material encompasses everything from hushed ballads to aggressive, angular riffing. Introspective lyrics, keening melodies and a propulsive rhythm section characterize the songs. This is a band known for delivering impassioned performances—a band that is best experienced in a live setting.
Driven by an undeniable chemistry, Divine Chaos captivates audiences with their poignant music. They are a band that believes in creating music that they enjoy, regardless of whatever is trendiest at the moment. And as a live act, you’ll never catch them simply going through the motions. To them, every performance is an opportunity to challenge and provoke listeners.

Why this name?
We got it from a poem called "confrence man" by Irving Layton. It was in one of our high school english text books.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
It would depend on the stipulations of the contract, but it wouldn't hurt.
Band History:
Divine Chaos formed in February 1999, while all of the members were attending LeBoldus High School. Soon after, they began performing at venues like The Exchange, The Antechamber, The Buffalo Lounge, The Union Hall and The State. They’ve played extensive shows with local acts, as well as groups such as Edmonton’s Painting Daisies, Vancouver’s The Saltines and Ottawa’s Weights and Measures. In August of 2001, Divine Chaos independently released a debut album, Threadless, which included songs that had become a staple of their live set. One of the tracks, “Letting Go”, was featured on the Regina Community Radio compilation, RadioActive Volume 2. For the next year, the band was put on hiatus so that members could concentrate on post-secondary education. In the summer of 2002, they reunited and immediately started writing new material. The group recently recorded a three-song demo with Dave Taylor, which was released in March.
