“Violence Breeds Violence”, the debut album from the project SPLIT, is OUT since October 10, 2025.
Consisting of 7 tracks, this album lays the foundations of a dark and brutal universe, introducing the band into the landscape of French extreme music.

Violent, committed, and immersive, “Violence Breeds Violence” is a sonic manifesto that plunges the listener into a dark, raw, hardcore universe with no concessions. Each track is a scream, a direct assault against social injustices, inner demons, and the harsh reality of a decaying world.

The poignant lyrics tackle powerful themes: domestic violence, police brutality, precarity, depression, addiction, death. Hardcore is a music of struggle – and this album embodies that fight.

Conceived as a first uppercut to present SPLIT to both audiences and professionals, the album serves as a cathartic outlet – a controlled explosion where rage, urgency, pain, and a hope for redemption intertwine.

Born 1969, grew up with the NWOBHM sounds, musically educated with cult french magazines that were ENFER and METAL ATTACK, definitely nailed to the style when "The Number Of The Beast" by IRON MAIDEN was released... From 1982, it was clear life would never be the same ! Young & getting wild to the HEAVY sounds of SAXON, VENOM, BLACK SABBATH, MOTORHEAD, Young Fab also discovered thanks to school mates the NOISE, FILTH & FURY of Hard-Core/Punk bands like G.B.H, DISCHARGE, BROKEN BONES but also CRO-MAGS, BAD BRAINS, FUGAZI... and later on, through the 90's, everything that was ALTERNATIVE, EXPERIMENTAL, GRUNGE, INDUSTRIAL (SONIC YOUTH, NINE INCH NAILS, SOUDGARDEN, ALICE IN CHAINS)...
Passion & curiosity grew up as years went by ... Fate was SEALED... no turning back !
