SHINING'S FOURTH ALBUM OF DARK MISANTHROPY & ALLENCOMPASSING SELF-DESTRUCTION, INCLUDING HELLHAMMER (MAYHEM) ON DRUMS
Infamous Swedish black metal act Shining was formed by mastermind Niklas Kvarforth in Halmstad, 1996, releasing eleven studio albums over a span of almost twenty-fve years, commencing with 'Within Deep Dark Chambers' in 2000.
'IV - The Eerie Cold', Shining's fourth album, was originally released in 2005 & features drum work by Hellhammer of Norwegian legends, Mayhem. The album also features lyrical contributions from Nattefrost of Carpathian Forest. It was recorded at the Slaughterhouse studio in Sweden & was produced by Niklas Kvarforth & Rickard Bengtsson, who has worked with Arch Enemy, among many others.
Providing a great evolution from the foundations of hypnotic riff-styling, Shining has progressively incorporated more diverse, experimental & essentially non-metallic elements into their music including blues & jazz - affording the songs a greater dynamic & a more refreshing sound than typical 'pure' black metal bands. Even the vocals have a large breadth of character often missing from extreme metal acts.
