Background information über 'VIII: Redefining Darkness (Re-Release)'

"Redefining Darkness" stands as a crucial chapter in Shining's relentless exploration of depressive black metal's darkest corners. Originally released in 2012, this haunting collection showcases the Swedish masters at their most uncompromising, weaving together atmospheric bleakness with razor-sharp songcraft that cuts straight to the soul. The album's six tracks create an immersive journey through psychological torment and existential dread, with Shining demonstrating their ability to balance raw aggression with moments of haunting beauty that make the darkness all the more profound.

The production captures every nuance of despair, from the crushing weight of "Du, mitt konstverk" to the atmospheric devastation of "For the God Below". Shining's mastery lies in their ability to create music that feels both cathartic and destructive, offering no easy answers or false hope. This limited cassette reissue brings the album's analog warmth to the forefront, emphasizing the organic nature of the band's approach to extreme metal.

For fans of: Bethlehem, Lifelover, Silencer, Forgotten Tomb and Xasthur
