Hell to the yes.

Kvarforth shouldn't even sing in this EP. Any vocals should be done by that crying bitch from Halmstad, specifically from the song "Leangtar Bort Fraan Mitt Hjaerta", if memory serves me properly.

Lots Of Girls Gonna Get Hurt might be the title.

Oh shit, you were serious

I think you mean the sample from Prozac Nation (starring Christina Ricci), right?

If that's where the sample's from then yeah, Christina Ricci should provide all the sobbing for this upcoming EP. Also, a video should be made for this EP (starring Ms. Ricci) in the same vein as the "Förtvivlan, Min Arvedel" video (the uncensored version, if they doesn't go without saying). That's a winning combo if I've ever thought of one haha.

I like where you're going with this

The "For My Demons" cover is good, now give me the Kent and Imperiet ones!

Carnival of Rust is a great song, I'm so eager to hear that.

Title reminds me of this:

And what the hell, the chosen Kent track is a b-side (and for a good reason).

Why for a good reason?

Because it sounds like B-side. There are about 100 better Kent tracks to choose from.

Oh yeah, I guess I missunderstood your comment as I thought you meant that the took a Kent song that was unexpected.
I really like that song though... but yeah... I can think of so many songs that are way better choices and that would fit Shining's style way more.

To be honest, it would have been great to see something truly adventurous like a cover of "Visslaren".

Heh, yeah... Kent usually ends albums with "epic" songs like Visslaren, 747 and Mannen I Den Vita Hatten. It would have been interesting.

Title reminds me of Kvarforth beating his wife.

Meh, I don' like cover albums.

It' an EP though A full length with only covers on the other hand is indeed a bit boring though. Depends on the songs...
I wouldn't mind listening to Shining doing more covers of artists like Kent as long as they don't suck at it.

Carnival of Rust? Sold.

Isn't "Lots of girls gonna be hurt" a line from a track off Danzig II?

Katatonia cover is here : http://soundcloud.com/shining-official/for-my-demons-katatonia-cover

Ah yes I missed it. My bad.

For my demons is really good song,i like it but the cover is exactly like the original nothing changed. kvanforth tries to sing like jonas, i think cover albums are waste of time

Terribly dissapointed with this one. The Kent and Imperiet cover is nowhere near to how I thought Kvarforth would interpret these bands. I'd much rather listen to the original songs.

Yeah, this album is very pointless. Making covers just to show people "hey I listen to pop and can perform it too!" doesn't make for very interesting listening. The covers aren't bad, but they add no new dimensions to the tracks. If you're going to record cover songs (as opposed to warming the crowd up live), you should make them your own.

I seriously doubt lots of girls are gonna get hurt, considering they picked three of the pussiest girl bands and made a bunch of toothless fanboy covers of their songs. Unless they mean they're going to lure lots of girls backstage with this album and hurt them there.

It's not bad in any way, but his interpretations are too edgeless. As a commenter above said, I'd rather listen to the originals.

Hey! I like one of those pussy girl bands a lot, fuck off!
I can't find the songs anywhere besides the Katatonia cover... Hmmm.

I like Kent and Katatonia too (at least their better albums), but my point stands!

I DON'T KNOW!






But yeah... I've only heard the Katatonia cover, and it sucked balls.

What the fuck is the point of a cover if you're not going to change anything about the original song?

QFT


At least distorted your guitars a little more.

Nothing too interesting about this EP. They certainly could've added a noticable touch of their own music to the songs.

The only original song I listened to is For My Demons so it's hard for me to judge, but Katatonia cover doesn't sound impressive and clearly lacks personality. The other songs sound nice being played in the background.
