Once upon a time, two mountain men were out grizzly huntin in the backwoods of the Rocky Mountains. The monstrously huge mountain man, who we will name "Ben" for the purpose of the story, pulled out his Bowie knife, complete with survival kit in the handle, and ran into the bear cave yellin. The other mountain man, who we will call "Randall Rainey," got down into his bear wrestling stance and waited. Pretty soon, a hoopin and a hollerin came from deep in the cave and then all of the sudden Ben comes runnin out of the cave with the biggest grizzly man has ever layed eyes on. As soon as the bear burst from the cave, Randall Rainey lunged at it and grabbed it in his famous "Bear Claw" grab that even the Indians tell stories about. Ben, who is tired of Randall Rainey having all the fun, jumped in the scuffle. Too bad yall couldn't have been there cause the craziest most fiercest tussle ensued with the three tumbling down the entire mountain and then wrestling across the plains until they ended up in Texas where finally, the bear said, "yall two are the most toughest fiercest of men I have ever fought...and because of that I give you these," and he handed them two guitars fastened out of the finest grizzly materials.
Pretty soon after that, they ran across what appeared to be the greatest battle that the Indians had ever fought. They watched in amazement as an extremely suave and rather good looking cowboy fought off an entire tribe of warrior Indians to protect a woman and her baby. The chief of the Indians called down a mighty eagle spirit to aid in the battle but after taking one look at the cowboy, it pee'd its pants and flew away crying. Realizing the might of this handsome cowboy, the Indian chief called back the few Indians that remained and exclaimed that this must be the mighty warrior that all their Indian folklore was written about. So they approached the gun slinger, and offered him the mighty Indian bass guitar complete eagle spirit powers. After receiving the mighty Indian warrior name of "Ryan" from the chief he met up with Ben and Randall Rainey and the three joined forces.
Tired from their recent battles, the trio decided to have some laughs and so they attended the traveling circus...best in the world it claimed. To their amazement they watched the world's best trapeze artist who was aptly called..."Brett." This man was so good, he was doing triple backflip supermans from one trapeze to the other all while holding an Indian princess in his arms. This bronze muscley circus entertainer with his flowing golden lockes made all the ladies pass out and all the men dream they were him. As he continued his routine of flips, twist, springs, twirls, good lookingness, climbing, and pretty much being good at everything, the guys decided they wanted this chap to join with them. After the show was over, Brett was awarded the finest drum sticks to ever have been seen...these were so fine that there are rumors that man couldn't have made them...some other being did. With drums sticks in hand, he joined our boys and their escapades.
Running around south of the Mason Dixon line, they ran into a confederate general leading his troops into battle. Vastly outnumber and out gunned, the general and his men attacked with a fierceness few men have ever witnessed. Immediately, half of the northern soldiers, who had heard rumors of this invincible southern gent and his rebel yell, turned and high tailed it out of there. Our boys, watching the battle from atop a hill, were fascinated as this general and the few man he had with him, charged the opposing army. When the rebels reached firing range, the general let out the loudest most terrible noise man's ears have ever heard. The force of that rebel yell knocked our boys backwards completely off their hill. Some people talk about that puny little "shot heard round the world." Well that was nothing compared to this rebel yell. By the time the boys got back to the top of the hill they looked down and not one northern soldier remained. They had been completely annihilated. The boys rushed to meet this general to persuade him to join their little troupe. It didn't take much and the most famous of all southern gentlemen, General "Caleb," joined force with them to finish the creation of what some people say is "the best band the world has ever seen."
Two grizzly fightin mountain men, a cowboy with eagle spirit powers, the most famous trapeze artist, and the greatest confederate general, created what is now know as "Divide the Sea." A band not only filled with our nation's greatest heroes and musicians, but also with funnest bunch of boys you ever did see. The purpose of DTS is not only to play monstrously huge southern metal, have an awe inspiring live presence, and to tour the country, but it is also to glorify their savior Jesus Christ and to show His love as best as possible to all who will listen.
