"They certainly are not going down without fighting, without staking their own claim on the mainstream pop landscape," PopDust raved about the new single, "You won't be able to cast off this anthem from your mind; it's that sticky."Vocalist Melissa Menago explains, "We were going through a lot of internal conflict and were trying to find the right way to describe how we were feeling when this track was written." In writing the track, the band resolved the conflict and saw the title was perfect for their forthcoming EP. The full project is a departure from June Divided's previous releases, incorporating more synths, keys and indie pop elements than ever before.

Having rocked the stages of Warped Tour, MTVu and SXSW, the band has recently been performing along the east coast, met with the response of eager fans ready for new music. "Body Wars might be a different sound from us but we feel right at home with our new EP," the band remarked about the new EP. "We took a long time to figure out exactly what we wanted for this release, and we feel like the sounds and the content on this record is exactly what we wanted to bring to everyone." With praise from MTV, Alternative Press, Music Times and more, June Divided are prepping to share Body Wars with the world.  Present throughout the new music are the vocals of Melissa Menago, described by Going Solo as, "a wonderful tone of voice that runs like a river through galactic walls of synths and nimble basslines."

June Divided is comprised of Melissa Menago (guitar, keys, vocals), Chris Kissel (guitar), Keith Gill (drums), and Lenny Sasso (bass, synth). The four-piece initially came together while studying at Philadelphia's Drexel University and have been collaborating and creating ever since. After dominating the Warped Tour world with their previous projects, The Other Side of You (2011) and Backbone (2012), June Divided stepped back to evolve their sound and record new music. Evident on "I Didn't Mind" and "Body Wars," the full Body Wars EP showcases the dynamic energy of June Divided. New Music Seminar's Peter Schwinge remarked that, "They're not just another three-chord rock band, there's some real intricate and subtle stuff going on...and Melissa's attitude on stage says she's there to kick some ass."

"Body Wars" follows June Divided's single "I Didn't Mind," released in October. Both tracks come from the band's forthcoming EP Body Wars, slated for release on December 2nd. This project follows the band's 2012 release Backbone.
