Description

[Machine Translation] The band SHINING BLACK was founded by Mark Boles, who has performed with YNGWIE MALMSTEEN'S RISING FORCE and many other bands from the 80's to the present, and guitarist Olaf Thorsen, who is the brain behind the Italian melodic metal band VISION DIVINE/LABYRINTH, which is also very popular in Japan. The band SHINING BLACK, which was founded by Mark Boles and Olaf Thorsen, a guitarist active as a member of VISION DIVINE/LABYRINTH, a popular Italian melodic metal band in Japan, is back in action after two years. The long-awaited second album is now complete. Inheriting the taste of their debut album, which was highly acclaimed for its concentration of veteran musicianship, this album is even more profound, emotional, and melodic than the previous one, and has a style that makes listeners want to hear more. Olaf Thorsen once said about SHINING BLACK: "This band is a power metal band. ( I don't know how to name the music we play because this band is not a power metal band, and I always found it difficult to name the music I write. In this case, I don't know if it fits, but I guess you could say we play melodic, slow, kind of ( heavy melodic rock ). I think there are some elements of AOR in there too ( forgive me if I don't think so. But you can feel it in the songs on the album. So if everyone thinks of LABYRINTH and VISION DIVINE as (cousins), SHINING BLACK is a completely different band musically ) *This product will be on sale on Friday (worldwide simultaneous release), so you will receive the product after the release date.

Description in Japanese

ポストカーズ・フロム・ジ・エンド・オヴ・ザ・ワールド / シャイニング・ブラック・フィーチュアリング・ボールズ・アンド・トーセン

YNGWIE MALMSTEEN'S RISING FORCEを始め、80年代から現在まで数多くのバンドでその驚異的な歌唱力を披露してきたマーク・ボールズと、日本でも人気の高いイタリアン・メロディック・メタル・バンド、VISION DIVINE/LABYRINTHのブレインとして活躍するギタリストのオラフ・トーセンが中心となって立ち上がったバンドSHINING BLACKが2年の時を経て再び動き出す。待望のセカンド・アルバムが完成。ベテランならでの匠の技が凝縮され大好評を博したデビュー・アルバムのテイストを引き継ぎ、本作では前作以上に重厚でエモーショナルかつメロディックな展開で、リスナーに聴かせる作風となっている。またオラフ・トーセンはSHINING BLACKについて以前このように語っている。「このバンドはパワー・メタル・バンドではないから、俺たちが演奏する音楽にどう名前を付けたらいいかわからないし、いつも自分が書いた音楽に名前を付けるのも難しいと思っていた。今回の場合は合っているか分からないけど、メロディックで、スピードが遅く、一種の「ヘビー・メロディック・ロック」を演奏していると言って良いんじゃないかな。 AORの要素もいくつか入っていると思う(そう思わなかったら許して欲しい。でも、それはアルバムの曲から感じることができるよ)。だから、もし皆がLABYRINTHやVISION DIVINEを「いとこ」のように捉えているならば、SHINING BLACKは音楽的にはまったく別のバンドだと言える」 ※本商品は金曜販売開始商品(世界同時発売)のため、商品のお届けは発売日当日以降になります。
