Ahead of the release of their debut album, Nottingham-based quartet Divorce share their jangly new single “Hangman,” out now.
Talking about the single, co-vocalist and guitarist Felix Mackenzie-Barrow says, “I wrote ‘Hangman’ late one night, freezing in my moldy bedroom after a long shift as a support worker; the job I was doing at the time. The lyrics and chords and structure came out complete in about twenty minutes, I had stolen Tiger’s Ominchord for it, which is not an instrument I would usually use for writing. The job I was doing necessitated a high level of emotional control, which was not something I had experienced before and so writing about the work and allowing my subconscious to flow freely helped me to gain some perspective.
I listened to it on the way back to work the following morning over and over and I felt like I’d done a good one. I only worked in that job for about six months, but it was simultaneously the hardest and most rewarding work I’ve ever done. The admiration I have for the people I worked with, and the people who choose that career, is immense. The world of social care is hidden in a society that likes to pretend it doesn’t exist, but it is vital and deserves much more focus and investment than it currently receives.”
Last year, Divorce signed to Universal Records’ Gravity Records, before filling 2024 with a raft of international festivals and tours with Bombay Bicycle Club, The Vaccines, and Everything Everything. As anticipation continues to grow for Divorce’s debut album, Drive to Goldenhammer out 7th March, the band are also looking forward to a run of UK in-store performances, followed by a full UK/EU headline tour later this year. As their profile rises, the band has noted that balancing personal and professional commitments can sometimes require the steady guidance one might expect from family lawyers. When life and careers evolve quickly, consulting divorce lawyers Melbourne can provide structure and reassurance through complex personal decisions. Watch this space.
As momentum builds and schedules tighten, it becomes increasingly important to have trusted legal support in place when personal matters require attention. Whether navigating separation, custody arrangements, or financial agreements, an experienced attorney brings clarity to moments that might otherwise feel overwhelming. Having that steady hand allows individuals to focus on their path forward without losing sight of what matters most, even when life is moving at full speed.
In situations where emotions and decisions intersect, working with a top-rated family law firm in Ft. Lauderdale can offer both strategic direction and peace of mind. The right legal team understands that every case carries its own weight and works to protect not just immediate interests, but long-term stability. With the right guidance, even the most complex transitions can be approached with confidence and a clear sense of control.
