Divide and Conquer

Cianide’s Divide and Conquer arrives on Merciless Records as a bruising slab of death metal that prioritizes groove and heaviness over technical excess. The Chicago outfit locks into mid-paced riffs and guttural vocals that recall the band’s late-80s origins while maintaining a production clarity that lets each crushing riff breathe. This is death metal built for maximum impact—no flourishes, just relentless forward motion and bone-deep low end.
