On Divine Winds

On Divine Winds is the second album from Hail of Bullets, an old school death metal band formed by current and former members of Asphyx and Gorefest. On Divine Winds continued the band's focus upon the Second World War, this time focusing upon the Pacific Campaign. The album title is a reference to the English translation of "Kamikaze" and was produced by Dan Swanö.

Background
Drummer Ed Warby said that the main difference between the first album and On Divine Winds was that the band "semi-subconsciously" incorporated more melody into the music. Warby attributed this emphasis on melody to the subject matter of the album:

"The Pacific has more epic connotations and as such translates into huge musical themes in our heads, whereas the Eastern front topic on the last full-length album inspired a more bleak, stripped down musical style."
