(SWE) DEATH / THRASH With a trademark of tightness, technicality and explosive live-performances CHINE brings an intense experience from a frontline of two battling vocalists assaulting the listener with deep roars and high screams in a background of rhythmic verses and thick, bombastic choruses. Emerging from the southern parts of Sweden, CHINE and their futuristic death-thrash was formed in early '05 from the ashes of several local metal-acts. In 2006 the first recording was made in their hometown of Helsingborg, which soon was followed by a number of live-shows in the nearby area. After several months of writing new material, Peter Wildoer (Darkane, ex-Arch Enemy) and Klas Ideberg (Darkane, Terror 2000) offered to help as producers for the second demo, which was completed in early 2007. This three-track compilation managed to attract the attention of a number of labels and saw the band sharing the stage with heavyweights Soilwork, Hatesphere, Darkane and others. The debut release contains seven tracks of technical death-thrash with melodic and groove based elements combined with rhythmic illusions, polymetrics and dark electronics. For fans of. Soilwork, Darkane, Haunted, Arch Enemy
