Cause Of Divorce was founded by Rollo (drums, ex-Orgasmic Groan, ex-Kadath, ex-Zengaya), Marc (voice, ex-Orgasmic Groan) and Ivo (guitar, ex-File Not Found) in early 2001 - just for fun. After a little while Christoph (guitar, ex-Abreast) and Norman (bass, ex-Orgasmic Groan) completed the line up.
Our typical non-genre like grindattacks are due to our personally different musical predilections. We describe our music as GRINDCORE FOR THE UNLOVED, well knowing that we don't play pure or typical Grindcore, but although we combine DeathMetal, Hardcore and other elements with grindattacks, we think that the heading Grindcore fits best for the music that we play. It is also not our intention to transport pompous messages and admonish our listeners, but we understand ourselves as a political' band and if our lyrics maybe stimulate some independent thoughts, than this is an desirable side-effect. But the main intention is the fun and love for extreme music !
In 2002 we published our first demo called Genozid, in 2004 Non Serviam, our second demo followed. In 2007 we released our third demo PHOBOPHOBIE. All demos were published on CD-r (and tape) and in totally Do-it-yourself manner, that was intentional. We also participate on some Underground-Compilations.
In Spring 2007 we get a new bass guitar player: Niklas (after Norman left the Band in 2006 due to some musical differences).

Due to some differences we've split up with our bass guitar player Niklas and are now checking an substitute.
In february/march 2010 we'll release our 12 split-LP (BARGAIN HUNTING') with Bangsat (Indonesia) by Truemmer Pogo / Doomed To Extinction Recsords / Boelzcore Music + and our 4th demo-CDr (GRINDSTEIN'). We're also planning several shows for 2010.
Since January 2010 we have a new bass guitar player: Christian !
