Thine, the enigmatic UK dark rock/prog quintet who recently released their third studio album, ‘The Dead City Blueprint’, have announced two UK shows in July with the one and only Devin Townsend.
Having formed in 1995 in Yorkshire, UK with the core trio of Alan Gaunt, Paul Groundwell & Daniel Mullins (currently handling drum duties with My Dying Bride), Thine initially burst onto the scene in 1997 with the release of the atmospheric prog/doom ‘Journeys’ demo tape, with the debut album of boundary-warping metal noir, ‘A Town Like This’, appearing on Peaceville the following year. Thine’s most accomplished work to date, ‘In Therapy’ saw light of day a full 4 years later, & showcased a more sleek & immediate sound, bringing comparisons to other dark & emotional acts such as Katatonia & Anathema. The band line-up is completed by Dylan Rhodes on rhythm guitar & Richard Swift on bass.
UK Dates w/ Devin Townsend:
Jul 03 Rock City, Nottingham, United Kingdom
Jul 04 The Assembly, Leamington Spa, United Kingdom
