Always happy to hear a brand new band out of
Sweden and TME
certainly is no different. TME is a four man metal assault of sorts ranging
from black to death to thrash metal. 3 of the current members consist of
Vintersorg & Fission musicians! “Worlds Collide” is TME’s
debut release and is nothing short of heavy metal angst. It is a 10 track
collaboration of thrash-laden groove hooks with very little in the way of
solos, but alas! The riffs are what you'll digest more than anything. It's
a bit interesting because there really doesn't appear to be a lot going
on here (maybe due to the clean production??), but there actually is quite
a bit of technicality. At times you will hear something along the lines
of Grimfist, then Susperia, then Zyklon, and then even perhaps some older
Sepultura style riffing. Their vocals are primarily death metal vocals.
Lots of stuff here to ride as far as elements and style differentials. Not
a bad start for a band, particularly with some experience already, looking
to build a thrash metal foundation. Interesting stuff!! Should appeal to
fans of thrash & death metal.
