Non-Divine – Insane Groove Rock Metal since 1999

Follow, watch or stream Non-Divine listed at https://linktr.ee/nondivine

Non-Divine’s music is like melodic groove rock metal in its own original way. It was early 1999 when Dutch musician Ivor van Beek fulfilled his ambition to form a mainstream metal sounding band based on danceable grooves, melodic guitars and a diverse spectrum of vocals.

Releasing their EP “My Obsession” in 2000 opened many doors for Non-Divine. Dressed in white psychiatric suits, Non-Divine is known for a crazy energetic live show. The band played many shows, a seven-week tour, won several competition awards and did support for acts such as Dio, Anthrax and Sabaton. With new material, Non-Divine also appeared worldwide on several split albums and compilations.

Non-Divine’s debut album “Asylum 45” is a fictional concept album about a psychiatric hospital. In each song a patient tells his or her story. All patients are very different from each other and will enter your mind with all their mixed-up emotions. Let the music affect your brain and you will meet them all. When you feel the grooves and discover the strong harmonies and melodies, there’s no way back. You will be surrounded by madness of a special kind.

The album “Asylum 45” was recorded, mixed and mastered by Danish producer Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Flotsam and Jetsam, Amaranthe, Vola) and released worldwide in 2007 by Rusty Cage Records. Non-Divine did many headlining shows, support acts for bands such as Volbeat, Testament, Sonata Arctica and Queensrÿche and a European tour with Flotsam and Jetsam. Non-Divine also endorsed brands such as Peavey, Ernie Ball and Klotz-Ais.

After Non-Divine was absent for seven years, in 2023 Ivor van Beek let it be known that he is busy writing and pre-producing the second album and that Non-Divine endorses Schecter guitars.

Non-Divine world wide re-released the debut album “Asylum 45” on all available platforms January 24th 2025. The re-release will make the album more widely available. To celebrate, a full album stream lyrics video of “Asylum 45” is presented, made by Andrea Mantelli (Destruction, Cryptopsy, Burning Witches, Wind Rose, Vile Art). The songs “One Man, One Soul” and “Visions” with their accompanying videos will be re-presented.
