Divine Providence is the fourth album by American indie-rock band Deer Tick. Produced by Cosmic Thug production duo Adam Landry and Justin Collins, the album was the first to feature the current lineup of the band[1] and displayed a louder and faster sound than previous releases, with the band aiming to capture “the raw and spontaneous kerosene blaze”.[2] Divine Providence was released on October 24, 2011 on Partisan Records in the US and April 2, 2012 on Loose Music in the UK and Europe.
