Avant-garde Norwegian group SHINING - whose unique "blackjazz" hybrid of extreme progressive metal, experimental jazz-fusion and industrial precision has earned extensive international acclaim - will release One One One, their first studio album in three years, on June 4th in Europe (excluding Norway), and on June 7th in Germany and Austria.

A pre-order for One One One has been launched at this location. The One One One album is available for pre-order in North America here.

Mixed and co-produced by Sean Beaven (NIN, MARILYN MANSON, SLAYER) and mastered by Tom Baker at Precision Mastering (AVENGED SEVEFOLD, DEFTONES, MINISTRY), One One One sees Shining expanding on the musical palettes introduced on 2010's landmark Blackjazz.

'I Won't Forget'

'The One Inside'

'My Dying Drive'

'Off The Hook'

'Blackjazz Rebels'

'How Your Story Ends'

The band recently released a live clip for a heavy cover of KING CRIMSON’s classic track, '21st Century Schizoid Man'. The Blackjazz rendition of the Crimson classic can be watched in all it’s glorious 11 minutes below:

Shining also released a video for 'I Won't Forget', the first single from One One One. It's science fiction-inspired look gels naturally with the futuristic production of the audio track and creates a music video that perfectly portrays the unique aesthetics of the Blackjazz Rebels.
