Tine are a solo project from Pennsylvania that has been featured before in this zine and plays a symphonic mixture of black and death metal and this is a review of his self released album "Mergae Maris Profundi" which will be released in 2022.
A very heavy yet melodic sound starts off the album while you can also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on the recording. Symphonic elements are also a very huge part of the songs along with the vocals bringing in a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls.
When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can also be heard while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A lot of the album is also heavily rooted in the mid 90's era but mixed with a more modern style along with some choirs also being utilized on a few tracks.
Some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with the solos and leads also being done in a very melodic style as well as some of the faster riffing also adding in some tremolo picking, melodies are also added into some of the riffs, as the album progresses a brief use of clean playing can also be heard and a couple of later songs also adds in a brief use of clean vocals and the recording closes with an instrumental. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Occultism, Lavey Satanism, Philosophy, Anti Christianity. Darkness, Horror and the writings of H.P Lovecraft.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Tine and if you are a fan of symphonic black and death emtal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "From The Deep Ir beckons..." "A Cetacean Dirge" and "The Kracken's Lament". 8 out of 10.
