Total Utfrysning is a killer song. Actually the album it's on is pretty killer. Awesome riffage, great guitar playing and musicianship.

Their newer shit is garbage compared to their old stuff. The feeling isn't there anymore. And man, what a disappointing live performance these days.

Disagree with most opinions posted here. Kvarforth and Shining are one of the only groups I follow and have any faith in, these days. I think his vocal style is totally killer and quite fascist sounding! Considering that Kvarforth is only what? 29? I think he's a rather ambitious artist and has a lot to show for himself, up to this point in his career. Their songwriting is very relevant to my interests and the aesthetics are spot on. I am greatly anticipating "Redefining Darkness", which he has stated is their most black metal sounding release to date, and, in his opinion, their darkest material yet.

I find Shining to be anything but overrated and I say keep up the good work, Kvarforth and Co.

I never ended up listening to much past IV, and I've enjoyed some really good shit off those first few albums. I haven't even really heard much of their material after this, and will probably check it out at some point, but from the few songs I have heard I don't have much high hopes.

Definitely would be interested in checking out their newest album coming out though which I had no clue about until now.

Black Jazz was not a record by Kvarforth's Shining. It's another Shining entirely.

Blackjazz was a different band, from norway. Sounds nothing alike, but I made the same mistake when I first checked it out though.

So damn good.

Epic riffs & chorus.

Apparently this song/video is about his addiction to heroin and features Håkan Hemlin from Swedish pop/folk act "Nordman" who also struggled with heroin addiction as well.

The guitar playing has gotten better and better the last few albums. I have a weird thing about this band where I kind of want to dislike them but I cant help but dig a lot of their songs. Didn't like the Opeth like singing on the last album at all though. And some of the samples seem really over the top melodramatic.

I would make the argument that Shining has one of the more original sounds in all of metal. There's not many bands that sound like them.

Yea I mean, I'm not saying I HATE it. It's just one of those bands that I can't necessarily find anything specific that I dislike, but at the same time they just never really did anything for me, with a few exceptions. I feel the same way about Forgotten Tomb. Maybe I'm missing the point, because I can definitely see the appeal, and I definitely don't think it's BAD, it just doesn't blow me away.

edit: and yes, I own this album, as well as III, and of the material I've heard I definitely think V is the best.

I know that feel.

When are we saying later-era starts?

90's since Octagon was mentioned?

Blood on Ice is my favorite Bathory album (yea yea I know it's not TECHNICALLY newer stuff but fuck it it wasn't recorded til later so it counts).

And Requiem slays.

But yea Bathory just rules obviously.

Haven't given Nordland I/II much of a try though, just got them on vinyl though so that's about to change.

Ive been a fan of Shining for a while and never thought they'd get as "big" as they are now. I'm not surprised, they got a lot more technical, melodic and proggy (at times) with each album. The old stuff is pure hatred for self. I love it.

I re-visited the "The Eerie Cold" this morning. Bold move starting the record with a spoken rant about how your fans aren't real enough to get your music, followed by a blues guitar solo. And then there's the track that goes from a "Ginger Snaps" sample right into another ripping guitar solo. It's not a bad record, but I can see why I didn't keep up with the ones they put out after that. Is the later stuff better?
