vocalist from Blood Divine

Yeah, I was the vocalist in The Blood Divine. We started in summer 1995 - only a few months after being in the studio with Anathema during what turned out to be Silent Enigma.
The Blood Divine released two albums, Awaken in 96 and Mystica in 97 - both on Peaceville. We split up in 98.
Now I have a new band, Dead Men Dream. Check out http://wakeup.to/deadmendream

DMD is a band well worth of checking out, the site webmastered by me has some samples
 
Thank you Lord S
You're one of those with obvious good taste!
Are ya gonna visit Colchester this summer then?
You never visited when I lived in the forest but now I moved again it is even better. I live next to the castle now!
Anyone out there from Oz, NZ, California? Lets do an exchange visit!
On the subject of Oz, if anyone knows a great guy called Andrew - from Canberra - who went round the world in 93 then give him my greatest regards and tell him to contact me! He visited when I lived in Liverpool and we had a great time! He was a mate of the Oz band, Alchemist.
Peace & tranquility

Lord S...
You are now in the UK rock press
I won't be in there again unless
I meet one of those sad journos and kiss ass

Or if I make a bit of effort and send some of our CDs out!
I did get a mail off you a month or so ago, yeah... but you know I'm a lazy bastard, c'mon!
You've got long hair again. Did you get bored with short hair? I've got short hair myself now, as you'll have seen on the site I presume. I just got bored of it and got a skinhead.
What are your faves at the mo? I'm still a massive fan of anything Josh (ex-Kyuss) does, and I'm digging Tindersticks a lot. Do you know them?

Hey dude me and a mate saw you play with Blood Divine at the Royal Standard in Walthamstow. It totally slayed man!!!!!!

Me and Edd were the only guys there who had the CD it seemed cause we were singing along the whole time, we rocked out solidly that night. Great gig!!

Edd was so pissed he got up onstage afterwards and gave you a big hug!!!! HA! Good times man! :)

Cheers for that!

hehehe-was quite by accident-was reading the mag in the newsagent and saw the competition-being a Black Label SocietY fan i thought why not?!-yeah i like QOTSA,Unida-all that stuff.Not heard of Tindersticks-I have the Dido album which i think is pretty cool.Short hair-just hated the way i looked-not a conscious decision to grow it-just happened really!Keep in touch!
 
Oh, Tindersticks are really great. The "Curtains"-album ist my favourite. The are called "The World's saddest band", and I think it's true. :)
I always liked your lyrics, Darren. Especially track no. 8 from Serenades. Rock on.

Markus
 
thanks for the kind comments Markus
I will rock on, in fact I've just been in the studio this weekend.
Dead Men Dream recorded 3 songs.
There'll be news on the site soon(ish). Keep checking.
I saw Tindersticks at the Royal Albert Hall in London and they were absolutely mesmerising, pure emotion.
peace...
