{"product_id":"iii-angst","title":"III - Angst","description":"\u003cp\u003eSwedish act Shining was formed by Niklas 'Kvarforth' Olsson in 1996. Already with a developed sense of direction to his compositions \u0026amp; expression of wholly negative outlook \u0026amp; emotion, Niklas created some utterly oppressive material for the debut release, the 'Submit to Self-Destruction' EP in 1998, when Niklas himself was still only 14 years old. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'Angst' was Shining's third album \u0026amp; was originally released in 2002. A development of composition was clearly evident here, working in more subtle twists \u0026amp; complexities to the sinister \u0026amp; wholly oppressive black metal. The work of Shining is intended to reflect the dark \u0026amp; destructive side of the world \u0026amp; human nature. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album was recorded at The Abyss Studios (Immortal, Marduk \u0026amp; Dimmu Borgir), the famous Swedish recording studio run by Peter Tagtgren, The album was recorded by Tommy Tagtgren. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs is somewhat a trademark of the Shining sound, the album retains a hypnotic quality to the riffs mixed with unsettling vocal anguish, along with acoustic passages \u0026amp; expertly handled lead guitar passages. This was also the first Shining album to feature the legendary Hellhammer (Mayhem) on drums. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition of 'III - Angst' is presented on limited crystal-clear vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peaceville","offers":[{"title":"Clear LP","offer_id":50409597731147,"sku":"2189491","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_f5a1cf55_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726621268","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/iii-angst","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
