Heavy pop band Rain Division, blending metalcore, alt-pop and R&B, live at Come and Take It Live.
Rain Division play Come and Take It Live on Saturday, August 8, with the show starting at 7 PM. They're a heavy pop band that pulls from a few different directions at once, blending metalcore, alt-pop, and R&B into a single set. It's not a sound you'll find in one specific bin at a record store, and that's the point: the heavy side comes from the metalcore, the melodic side from the alt-pop, and the R&B brings in a different kind of groove. When they're all running together, it's a lot to take in at once.
If you're trying to place where they fit, it helps to think about those three styles separately. Metalcore brings the weight and the aggression, alt-pop keeps things catchy and structured, and R&B adds a smoother, more rhythmic edge. Putting them in the same room is what they do, and that's what you'll hear live. It's a heavy pop band in the truest sense of the phrase, with the pop side and the heavy side working against and with each other throughout the night.
