Here we have the new EP of Vanhelga. After many positive reviews of the second album "Höst" the band recorded a new EP in their unique style. 7 songs with a playing time of nearly 32 minutes of sick and melancholic music.

First time with Johan Gabrielson/1853 of Lifelover in the line-up.

Shining Hollow (Rough Pre-production Demo)

In the wake of our Re-Issue of "VIII / Redefining Darkness", in December, SHINING will close the book on one of the more cursed chapters of their career. They have chosen to do so by having us release an additional album that we have only been hinting at before this official announcement! "THE HELSINKI TAPES".

Niklas Kvarforth has, on countless occasions, mentioned the month that he spent together with Christian Larsson and Yusaf Parvez (DHG) in an apartment that they rented in Finland's capital. The three resolved to use this space as a base in which to write, experiment and cause various forms of unspecified damage before heading to Varberg to record the new album. For years, the band has wished that these infamous demo tapes could be released officially somehow. We here at TSI, who recently issued the definitive edition of the very album for which these songs were created, feel that the time has now come to release the recording that the band themselves have stressed: "Is in so many ways far superior to the actual album itself".

We may or may not agree on that, but there's certainly a mesmerizing rawness and constant feeling of unease contained within this otherworldly material. Not to mention, the tapes serve as an audial retelling of how an obscure Black Metal band from Sweden transformed into something different and ultimately way more dangerous than even those involved ever could have anticipated.

SHINING - The Ghastly Silence

When recording "Varg Utan Flock" in 2017, this DANZIG cover was captured by pure accident when Niklas Kvarforth and Euge Valovirta had a jam-session while trying out some new microphones that Andy La Rocque had recently gotten his hands on. The track in WAV format was long thought to be lost, but was recently found in the SHINING archieves and will remain an exclusive treasure on our Digital Platforms for the time being. 

SHINING - I'm The One (Unreleased)

Hohe Türme.
Graue Wände.
Menschenströme.
Lichter blenden.

Straßen flimmern.
Ich geh allein.
Kalte Blicke.
Die Stille schreit.

Beton und Stahl.
Ich bin einsam.
Ein Teil der Nacht,
der endlos wandert.

Träume
zerfallen.
Menschen
hasten.

Gedanken
schweifen.
Niemand
zweifelt.

Neon 
Reklamen.
Schritte 
hallen.
Tote 
Fassaden.
