Light Will Shine is the debut full-length album from Belgian band Divided, released on Dunk!Records on March 29 2024. It represents the band’s first major statement blending post-hardcore, post-metal, shoegaze, and experimental soundscapes into one cohesive and emotionally charged record.

Recorded and produced by Gilles Demolder (known for his work with Oathbreaker, Wiegedood, and Siem Reap) and mixed and mastered by Jack Shirley (renowned for his work with Deafheaven, Gulch, and other leading artists), Light Will Shine captures an intense dynamic range — from moments of raw aggression to hauntingly atmospheric passages. dunk!records+1

The album weaves through a broad emotional landscape, embracing themes of struggle, vulnerability, resilience, and catharsis, with visceral performances that are both powerful and deeply human. Critics and listeners have been intrigued by its immersive energy and genre-defying scope.
