Darkness Divided is an American Christian metalcore band from San Antonio, Texas, formed in 2010 by brothers Gerard, Christopher, and Joseph Mora.
In 2010, the brothers changed genres and started Darkness Divided with original drummer Colby Moreno and second guitar/backup vocalist Joey Jiménez after[citation needed] becoming fans of metal music.
[3][4] In 2012, Darkness Divided released a 5 track EP entitled Chronicles, which was produced by Daniel Castleman.
It is obvious to me just by listening to the album that their live shows are electric with energy and absolute loads of fun.
Written In Blood is an 11-track assault of deeply penetrating, sometimes chaotic, sometimes melodic, but always brutalizing metal core riffage coupled with crushing rhythmic breakdowns and Gerard Mora's thunderously demanding vocals.
Driven by faith and fueled by conviction, Darkness Divided are on a mission to prove that through suffering comes salvation."
[10] On November 11, 2015, guitarist Chris Mora put out an announcement on the band's Facebook page.
The band would go on tour with Convictions in October 2017, replacing Earth Groans, who took the first half of the date.
Gerard Mora gave an interview in Outburn, where he was asked "What lyrical themes do you explore?
For Written in Blood, the lyrics all deal with the theme that in life there's struggle, and as people we all go through our trials, but the idea is that we're all suffering together.
