€12.95

Depressive Black Metal

Seventh album by the cult Swedish act Shining, with the guest collaboration of Michael Amott (Arch Enemy), Erik Danielsson (Watain) and Håkan Hemlin (Nordman). Musically, “Född Förlorare” represents Shining at one of its most confrontational and nihilistic points, merging depressive Black Metal with sharper aggression and a venomous sense of self-loathing. The songwriting is direct yet oppressive, balancing cold, cutting riffs with an atmosphere steeped in bitterness, resignation and existential despair. Vocals are spat with contempt and anguish, reinforcing the album’s core themes of failure, alienation and inner collapse. There is no romanticism here — only hostility, psychological violence and a relentless focus on the darker sides of human existence. A landmark release in Shining’s discography, this edition offers a definitive presentation of “Född Förlorare”: bleak, poisonous and uncompromising. Includes Katatonia's "For My Demons" cover as a bonus track.
