SHINING TO RELEASE LIVE ALBUM AND DVD

OUT 11.11.11

For the first time ever, the raw energy of their legendary live performances has been captured on tape in a setting organized solely by the band itself. Produced by the multi-talented front-man Munkeby, and backed by the same mixing and mastering team as on their previous Blackjazz studio album, we could not get a truer version of what Blackjazz is meant to be. Straight from the horse's mouth, this is the new standard that bands will strive to match for the next 10 or 20 years to come.

"This is basically the "Greatest Hits" album we have always dreamed of, now beautifully combined with breath-taking film footage vibrating with power. It feels good to know that people can now truly experience how much fire and effort we pour into our live shows. It could not have been better!" - Jørgen Munkeby

With all the blackness and all the humor, "Live Blackjazz" is the perfect display of a new genre rising. With all it's technicality and all it's rough shooting from the hip. With the trademark meltdown guitar tones and the Bonham-reborn-as-an-android drumming. Finally we also have the proof; the saxophone is the new Devil's instrument.

Produced by Munkeby

Mixed by Sean Beavan (Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Slayer)

Mastered by Tom Baker (Marilyn Manson, David Lynch, Nine Inch Nails)

Graded by John Cryer (Muse)

Film directed by Anders Børresen

Du moment que le son et les images ne le sont pas, peu m'importe.
FLowa nous fera peut-être une petite chronique après son LR.

J'écouterai en audio mais j'avais été très déçu par l'album Black Jazz donc je n'en attends pas grand chose...

Je lui préfère Grindstone qui, même s'il est sacrément foutraque, me parait beaucoup moins brouillon que BlackJazz. En grande partie à cause du son.

Mais je suis curieux de voir ou entendre ce que ça peut donner sur scène, je me suis laissé à rêver que ça pouvait être sacrément puissant et non pas encore plus brouillon que sur disque.

Je lui préfère en effet Grindstone mais encore plus In the Kingdom of Kitsch You Will Be a Monster qui est, amha, leur meilleur album.
Ceci dit, je suis toujours curieux de chaque nouvelle sortie de Shining (le suédois et le norvégien

).
