Description
Originally released in 2002, III : Angst was Shining's third album.
More compositionally sophisticated than their previous releases, Angst found the band creating a more subtle and complex variation on the sinister and oppressive suicidal Black Metal that marked their first two albums.
The album was recorded at The Abyss Studios (Immortal, Marduk & Dimmu Borgir), the famous Swedish recording studio run by Peter Tägtgren,.
III: Angst possesses a hypnotic quality mixing brutal riffs with unsettling vocals, and sensitive acoustic passages alongside brilliantly executed lead guitar solos.
This was the first Shining album to feature the legendary Hellhammer (Mayhem) on drums.
Description
The third album from the prolific Swedish extreme metal act, featuring Mayhem's Hellhammer on drums – now on Peaceville. Presented on 180gm black vinyl.
Swedish act Shining was formed by Niklas 'Kvarforth' Olsson in 1996. Already with a developed sense of direction to his compositions and 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 and was originally released in 2002. A development of composition was clearly evident here, working in more subtle twists and complexities to the sinister & wholly oppressive suicidal 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 Tägtgren, The album was recorded by Tommy Tägtgren.
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 and 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 180gm heavyweight black vinyl.
