Indie Recordings are proud to announce the re-signing of the Norwegian jazz-metal band Shining and the release of the new album in Europe, excluding Norway. "One One One" will be released June 4th in Europe and June 7th in Germany and Austria. Mixed and co-produced by Sean Beaven (NIN, Marilyn Manson, Slayer) and mastered by Tom Baker at Precision Mastering (Avenged Sevenfold, Deftones, Ministry), "One One One" sees Shining expanding on the musical palettes introduced on 2010's landmark "Blackjazz." That album – hailed by the New York Times as "a radioactive alloy of jazz and black metal" – scored aNorwegian Grammy nomination, cracked the Norwegian Top 10 and saw the group tour around the globe, from high-profile U.S. events like SXSW and CMJ to the large stages of European summer festivals. One such performance was captured on "Live Blackjazz," an ambitious CD/DVD released on 11.11.11 that saw the group perform the album in full before a sold-out crowd in their home country.
