Emerged back from "The Black Sea" Divided By Zero

Finally I found them again. Divided By Zero a band who fused genres like reggae into metal, hard rock, and punk that we never thought would sound good then. There was another band who did exactly what they are doing some years back. That band was Ghoulspoon. So is Divided By Zero a copycat? Certainly not. Cause They are it. They changed switched their name to divided by zero after some years of silence. And now they re-emerged back to the scene. Their debut "The Black Sea" like the bands name has deeper meanings it was not just picked because it sounded cool. He, Zach Goode, the vocalist of the band, compared the ability of the black sea to preserve shipwrecks to the situation of musicians. Like those shipwrecks so many musicians with really good talents and stuffs to share or show the world, are just waiting to be discovered. Mood of the lyrics are a taste of frustration, love, hope, experiences Zach had. The songs are explosive combined with some melodic tunes and aggressive riffs. The album centerpiece is a down tempo song Helicopter sings about hope and really plain music just some piano and basic down tempo drum line. Compared to the pieces of the old band. There was a noticeable change in the mood of their music. They sound more nu metal this time. But they still preserved their trademark fusions, there are only slight change on the mood and tempo of the pieces. And the lyrics became more mature. Over all they still have it.

Ghoulspoon back with a different name

A band originally formed in the late 80's by four high school friends. After their first ever gig in the early 90's they turned out to be a hit. They continue gaining popularity throughout the 90's slowly inching their position to rock stardom. They toured along sides some of the popular bands like 311, Korn, No doubt, Deftones, Incubus, Sublime, System of a down, Powerman 5000 and the likes. With their unique blend of rap, metal, reggae, and its heavy riffs with a couple or two lines in reggae, they gained respect and fans built up. They too won awards incliding best hard rock band in 2001. They managed to produce 3 albums and a few demos over the whole of their career on their own without having a manager or a major label. Some changes on the members went on through the rest of the late 90's until they reformed in 2001 changing the name to Divided by zero. Making them loose their former position in popularity. I guess the name changing was the reason why I can't find any results when i keyed in the bands name on search engines back in the early 2000. It was not very long when i started getting some. Well, after some years of wondering what or where the band was, I finnally get some answers. I'm writing a separate article on the new band Divided by Zero maybe next month.
