Nottingham’s Divorce today unveil their first new music of 2025 with the release of their captivating new single, ‘Pill’. The track precedes the band’s highly anticipated debut album, Drive to Goldenhammer, set to drop on March 7th through Gravity/Capitol.
‘Pill’ comes on the heels of the album’s radiant lead single, ‘All My Freaks,’ and the airy, guitar-laden soundscapes of ‘Antarctica,’ both successfully soared to the A-list on BBC 6 Music. Spanning an impressive 5 minutes, ‘Pill’ masterfully intertwines an array of elements, immersing listeners in a swirling tapestry of agitated guitar riffs, contemplative string arrangements, and a heart-wrenching solo piano interlude. The track flirts with swooning alt-country influences, culminating in crashing, dramatic climaxes that showcase Divorce at the zenith of their creative powers.
Of the single, vocalist Tiger Cohen-Towell states;
‘Pill’ was written on not my piano at not my flat in not my city; Glasgow to be specific. It’s about sexual awakenings and the absolute thrill of feeling seen properly. It’s also about a long-term long-distance relationship that turned my life upside down (and continues to), and my relationship with a new place alongside that. It’s one of the queerest songs on the record, all three sections highlight a different realm of my queer experience. It’s also potentially the most unconventionally arranged song on the record and making it was a very playful and light-hearted process. From the get-go I wanted it to have three very different sections in this song, the rest of the band trusted that instinct and we all threw ourselves into making it work, so it was nice to feel professionally seen whilst making a song about feeling personally seen!
Divorce set out on an extensive UK tour in March, tickets are available now.
