DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT Confirm THINE As Main Support For Sonisphere UK Warm-Up Shows
June 25, 2014, 10 years ago
The Devin Townsend Project has confirmed UK dark rock/prog quintet Thine as main support on their upcoming Sonisphere UK warm-up shows. They will be preceded on the bill by Empire.
Having formed in 1995 in Yorkshire, UK with the core trio of Alan Gaunt, Paul Groundwell and 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 four years later, and showcased a more sleek and immediate sound, bringing comparisons to other dark and emotional acts such as KATATONIA and Anathema. The band line-up is completed by Dylan Rhodes on rhythm guitar and Richard Swift on bass.
