RELEASE DATE
2/20/2007
This is the fourth album (2nd on Rune Grammofon) from Norway's experimental collective,
Shining
. The press dropped many names when trying to place Shining's previous album on the musical map, from
The Mars Volta
and
Slayer
via
King Crimson
and
Mahavishnu Orchestra
to
Henry Cow
,
This Heat
,
Ornette Coleman
,
Ligeti
and
Messiaen
. One thing they all agreed on was the striking originality of this young group who had gone through a radical transition from starting out as a post-bop jazz quartet. With
In The Kingdom Of Kitsch You Will Be A Monster
they tried to squeeze in as much as they could, but masterful editing and production from
Kåre Chr. Vestrheim
made it all stick together in a very convincing way. Vestrheim is also the producer of
Grindstone
. Multi-instrumentalist, writer and mainman
Jørgen Munkeby
is, like many of his contemporaries, from a young generation of Norwegian musicians, not content with sticking to one genre but listening to and drawing inspiration from several places, something that is as evident with this album as it was with its predecessor. Just witness how they move between complex riffing, filmic soundscapes, jazz, and classical and modern composition, all on the turn of a dime. Orchestral, confusing, thrilling. Shining is: Jørgen Munkeby (guitar, sax and various instruments);
Torstein Lofthus
(drums);
Andreas Schei
(keyboards);
Morten Strøm
(bass).
