There are multiple artists under the name of Shining:
1) A Swedish black metal band.
2) A Norwegian Progressive Metal/Avant-garde Jazz group.
3) Early noise recordings from illinois.
4) A defunct British indie band.
5) Julian Beeston, an electronic musician.
6) A Polish experimental death metal band.
7) A french hip hop artist.
1. A Swedish black metal band originally formed back in 1996 by Niklas Kvarforth in the city Halmstad. Their lyrical themes are often based on depression, anger, suicide and angst, but also man’s immoral behavior. Their live performances often contain self-mutilation that they invite the audience to take part in.
The band’s name does not refer to the book The Shining or the film based on it, but rather according to Kvarforth, it means “the path to enlightenment”.
Discography:
2000 - I - Within Deep Dark Chambers
2001 - II - Livets Ändhållplats
2002 - III - Angst, Självdestruktivitetens Emissarie
2005 - IV - The Eerie Cold
2007 - V - Halmstad
2009 - VI - Klagopsalmer
2011 - VII - Född Förlorare
Current line-up is:
* Niklas Kvarforth (Vocals, Keyboards, Composition)
* Peter Huss (Guitars)
* Sebastiaan Bats (Guitars)
* Christian Larsson (Bass)
* Ludwig Witt (Drums)
2. A Norwegian band that started out as an experimental jazz group in 1998, and has since evolved into playing their own avant-garde brand of progressive metal. Winner of the Alarm Award in both 2006 (for In the Kingdom of Kitsch You Will Be a Monster) and 2007 (for Grindstone).
