About Split -
There's a lot that has been said and a lot that can be said about the mad scientists that have created and feed Split. But in a nutshell, they are a bunch of good friends, a quintet of drinking buddies, and musicians that know how to floor a tune. Split was formed in 2001 and, after the usual rock 'n' roll roulette of line-up changes, broken strings, lost equipment and assorted mishaps, settled on the perfect formula for chaos. With Garreth on vocals, Mel and Aviv on guitars, Shekhar on bass and Varoon on drums, Split's music has conquered stages, hearts, and minds across the country. Split's music is equally about conflict and resolution. A slick construction of wit and drunken wisdom, with baritone bass and pounded drums that chase edgy guitar riffs and screaming solos right down to a breakdown of nuclear proportions. The themes range from the epic to the mundane; from slimy evangelists to train travel, from revolution to becoming ?adult?, and from existential angst to the eternal favorite ? a broken heart.
At the end of 2008, the band took what turned out to be an extended break, during which all 5 members pursued various other paths, musical and non-musical. The band is now back with a vengeance, and with a steady supply of new ideas, old grouses, and 7-year vatted rum.

Sounds like -
Ramshackle blues meets rum-soaked rock 'n' roll!

Looks like -
A spiritual revival meeting gone wrong.
