Wednesday: Chaos Divine - Soldiers

     Want to go proggy for your belated Wednesday song? Of course you want to go proggy for your belated Wednesday song! And where in the world are we going to follow Carmen Sandiego to for today's progtastic selection? Australia, of course.

     Fucking Australia. They get beautiful weather, cute little accents, close proximity to the last natural habitat of the endangered hobbit... they even have their very own word for beer, for fuck's sake! And over the last few years, Australia has become a hotbed of proggish activity too. Today's example of this is Chaos Divine, which, if forced to, I suppose I would classify as "post-metal" since they're "post" enough to warrant a "post" qualification and heavy enough to warrant said qualification being appended to something more than just "rock".

     But forget genre hair-splitting. All you really need to remember is that "Soldiers", from the band's latest album Colliding Skies, is rock solid. Not too tech or too heavy (as if something could really be either of those things...), but still oozing proggy groovyness. Or is it grooviness? You get the idea. Check out Chaos Divine.
