There are multiple artists under the name of Shining:
1) A Swedish suicidal black metal band
2) A Norwegian experimental metal jazz group
3) A defunct British indie band
4) Julian Beeston, an electronic musician
5) A Polish experimental death metal band
6) early noise recordings from illinois
1. A Swedish experimental / suicidal black metal band originally formed back in 1996 by Kvarforth. Their lyrical themes are based on depression, suicide and angst, and their live performances contain large amounts of self-mutilation that they invite the audience to take part in.
Current line-up is:
Niklas “Kvarforth” Olsson (Vocals, Keyboards, Compositions), Fredric “Wredhe” Gråby (Guitars), Peter Huss (Guitars), Andreas Larssen (Bass) and Rickard Schill (Drums).
2. A Norwegian band. It started as an experimental jazz group in 1998, and has since evolved to include jazz/metal/progressive sounds. Winner of the Alarm Award in both 2006 (for “In The Kingdom Of Kitsch You Will Be A Monster”) and 2007 (for “Grindstone”).
Current members are:
* Jørgen Munkeby: sax, guitar, Akai EWI and vocals
* Torstein Lofthus: drums
* Andreas Ulvo: synths and keyboards
* Morten Strøm: bass
* Even Helte Hermansen: guitars
3. There was a British indie band who went by the same name formed by former members of the Verve minus Richard Ashcroft. This is noticeable in their music which sounds similar to early Verve. They released a couple of singles, most notable the song “Danger”, and an album, “True Skies” in 2002. Little more was heard from them since.
4. The name was used sometimes by Julian Beeston of Nitzer Ebb for a small amount of solo work, mostly remixes.

The Shining lineup has been steady for a while now. Besides that, I don't see Kvarforth killing himself any time soon, he just got married.
