About Divine Sorrow
Divine Sorrow is a progressive hard rock band from St. Louis, Missouri. Founding members Bryan Chappell (lead vocals and bass) and Matt Depew (lead guitar) finalized the group with the addition of Mike Sikorski (guitar) and Lee Skyles (drums). Divine Sorrow is a complex mixture of heavy atmospheric rock and analytically driven lyrics with strong melodic tendencies. The bands tenured musicianship provides a strong live performance. Chappell’s dark, melodic writing style is an open journey through the cloud of Catholicism forged in his childhood. The expression of these feelings of hypocrisy and ambivalence are apparent in the powerful lyrics. The yearning to create music that is melodic and heavy collides with the dark feelings of beauty and tragedy and has taken its first breaths. Divine Sorrow began its live performances in July of 2011 to well received audiences in St. Louis, Mo. They have recently begun recording their debut album at Sawhorse Studios in St. Louis, and are planning to complete the project for release in 2012.
