Biography
One of Australia's finest female fronted metal acts, Divine Ascension have proven to be an awe-inspiring live act lead by the powerful, emotive performance of Jennifer Borg - a name to be etched alongside the likes of Anette Olzon (Nightwish), Sharon den Adel (Within Temptation) & Floor Jansen (After Forever).
Backing the theatrical and cabaret trained Borg are five men full of drive and spirit on stage. The sheer energy produced during a Divine Ascension set has caught many and left them stunned. Experiencing a Divine Ascension show is in-part like stepping into their songs and experiencing the tale there in, and in-part sharing in the bands exhilarating performance that leaves none in it's wake.
Recording a roughly cut demo in September 2007, the name Divine Ascension soon brought about a multitude of attention from fans and media alike. Initially, the 3 track CD was recorded to help the band obtain gigs, however, this quickly grew to bigger things once local and national radio stations across Australia picked up the CD and spun it numerous times. Interviews were requested and supports with local metal heavy weights ensued, and the name Divine Ascension was soon on the lips of those in the local Melbourne scene as a fresh new talent not to be missed.
Four years on from the demo recording and a 'baptism of fire' touring the local metal scene, Divine Ascension have now released their debut full-length album As The Truth Appears. Ermin Hamidovic of Systematic Productions was at the helm throughout recording and mixing the album, and Sweden's own Plec from Panic-Room Mastering (Scar Symmetry) was commissioned to put the finishing touches on this long awaited release.
With 10 tracks totaling 50 minutes of music this release has received global attention and has allowed the band to obtain a place as one of the world's best emerging female fronted metal acts. With tracks ranging from powerful and dynamic to epic and melodic, with a trace of progression for good measure, As The Truth Appears has not only allowed Divine Ascension to storm onto the international metal scene, but has continued to cast the global metal spotlight on the shores of Australia.
Divine Ascension is gearing up to show the world they mean business and their debut album is their spearhead. Join them on their expedition and experience Divine Ascension.
