In 2007, Chris Rushing and Gaël Pirlot began a project with the intention of juxtaposing challenging compositions with melodic ideas; the result became The Universe Divide. The project became dormant as the two exhausted their hopes of finding a percussionist and began focusing on other musical endeavours (Canvas Solaris, The Burden Of Existence). However, in 2009, a chance encounter with drummer Jason Parker revived the project and the quest for intergalactic entropy.
2010 brought the trio out of rehearsal and onto multiple stages across Atlanta. The 5 song E.P., Dust Settles On The Odontophobes, was produced by Jamie King at The Basement Recording and released Summer of 2011.
The band is a recommended entry in the world of instrumental technical progressive metal and list Carcass, Cynic, Death, Enslaved, Extol, Dillinger Escape Plan and Solefald amongst their influences.
