Dyskografia:last.fm pisze:Szwedzki Shining gra black metal z elementami doom metalu.
Poprzez swój klimat oraz teksty utworów, które oscylujących w temacie nienawiści, samookaleczeń, depresji i samobójstwa często utożsamiani są z nurtem depressive/suicidal black metal. Założyciel grupy Niklas "Kvarforth" Olsson twierdzi z zadowoleniem, że były przypadki popełniania samobójstw, częściowo przez wpływ muzyki.
Zespół rozpadł się po wydaniu czwartej płyty The Eerie Cold (2005). Ku ucieszeniu fanów, reaktywował się tego samego roku na potrzeby koncertów. Gdy wszystko się ustabilizowało, grupa wydała piątą płytę zatytułowaną V - Halmstad. W czerwcu 2009 r grupa wydała VI - Klagopsalmer po czym odwiedziła Polskę jako support Satyricon (obejmująca Bydgoszcz sierpniowa trasa została w całości odwołana).
