SHINING REVEAL VIDEO FOR ‘HOUSE OF CONTROL’
Eight shows left on month long European tour.
Blackjazz trail-blazers Shining have revealed a brand new video for ‘House Of Control‘, a track from their current studio album, ‘International Blackjazz Society’, released late last year through Spinefarm Records.
« It’s so great to finally have a video for our song ‘House Of Control’, since it means so much to me, » explains Shining frontman Jørgen Munkeby. « Not only are the lyrics very personal, but musically the track was also a bold step into a more varied and melodic landscape. We had no idea how that new direction would work out, but it has ended up being my favourite track off the album. I had so much fun shooting the video, and I’m very happy to present this steaming hot new clip! »

« The architecture of their music is modernist, a series of inelastic and inorganic shapes colliding with the velocity of a distant level of ‘Tetris’. » – Pitchfork
« Shining have pulled off some of the heaviest, most intense and frantic avant-metal around, while convincing us it’s straight forward and digestible » – Metal Hammer
« It’s a solid addition to a mercurial discography rich in experimentation » – Pop Matters
« Outlandishly Inventive » – Terrorizer
« It wouldn’t be hard to picture a jam band on bath salts and ketamine to sound too dissimilar from Shining in 2015 » – The Monolith
