They treat everyone, regardless of insurance status or ability to pay. In 2007, they treated over 93,000 children, and doled out $54 million in charitable care to children whose families were not able to pay for treatment, or who simply do not have insurance.

Division Day have announced a month long tour in support of their sophomore full-length, Visitation, out August 18. The tour, with labelmates Bad Veins, will kick off September 2 in the band’s hometown of Los Angeles, at Spaceland and run through September 24 in Austin. See the full list of dates on the Division Day tours page.

Visitation was recorded in Los Angeles with producer Justin Meldal Johnsen (NIN/Beck/Gnarls Barkley) with whom the guys discussed musical waypoints that included Harvey Milk, David Sylvian, Cocteau Twins and Pink Floyd. “It wasn’t about genre, but it was more about sounds. And he was able to ascertain what about those elements were important to us,” says keyboards/vocals Rohner Segnitz. The album features the lead single, “Chalk Lines”, a propulsive track that exemplifies the band’s darker, more textural sound.

This morning, Stereogum made the debut single (‘Chalk Lines’) from Division Day’s forthcoming record, Visitation, available for download in their mp3 section, claiming: “the guys have reinvented themselves as a more maturely dark and focused band than you heard on Beartrap Island.” Click here for article and mp3.

We’re thrilled to announce the addition of Los Angeles quartet Division Day to our roster of artists. Division Day will see the release of their much-anticipated sophomore full-length, Visitation, on August 18. The album was recorded in Los Angeles with producer Justin Meldal-Johnsen (NIN/Beck/Gnarls Barkley) and mixed by Todd Burke (Ben Harper/The Rumble Strips/Idlewild). The follow up to 2007’s Beartrap Island, Visitation finds the band steering confidently into darker territory, marrying synthetic and organic textures in songs about death, transformation, and the devil.

Formed while still in school, the band self-released Beartrap Island in 2006. Division Day took to the road, touring the west coast relentlessly, making a splash at CMJ, where they caught the ears of The New York Times, leading to a commercial release the following year. Response to the record was tremendous, garnering excellent reviews, and nationwide tours. Some excellent words about Beartrap Island:

“Division Day turn their own sorrow into something worth celebrating.” – Pitchfork

“They call themselves freestyle / Hawaiian / shoegaze, which is kind of misleading. They should just call themselves “lovely” and be done with it” – NYLON

With renewed focus and excitement Division Day will return to the road upon the release of Visitation. Dates to be announced shortly.
