THE THIRD ALBUM FROM THE PROLIFIC SWEDISH EXTREME METAL ACT, FEATURING MAYHEM'S HELLHAMMER ON DRUMS - PRESENTED ON LIMITED CRYSTAL-CLEAR VINYL.
Swedish act Shining was formed by Niklas 'Kvarforth' Olsson in 1996. Already with a developed sense of direction to his compositions & expression of wholly negative outlook & emotion, Niklas created some utterly oppressive material for the debut release, the 'Submit to Self-Destruction' EP in 1998, when Niklas himself was still only 14 years old.
'Angst' was Shining's third album & was originally released in 2002. A development of composition was clearly evident here, working in more subtle twists & complexities to the sinister & wholly oppressive black metal. The work of Shining is intended to reflect the dark & destructive side of the world & human nature.
The album was recorded at The Abyss Studios (Immortal, Marduk & Dimmu Borgir), the famous Swedish recording studio run by Peter Tagtgren, The album was recorded by Tommy Tagtgren.
As is somewhat a trademark of the Shining sound, the album retains a hypnotic quality to the riffs mixed with unsettling vocal anguish, along with acoustic passages & expertly handled lead guitar passages. This was also the first Shining album to feature the legendary Hellhammer (Mayhem) on drums.
This edition of 'III - Angst' is presented on limited crystal-clear vinyl.
