Additional notes
Shining (stylized as SHINING) is a Norwegian avant-garde music band from Oslo. Thirteen musicians have been a part of the band's line-up in its history, with singer, guitarist, saxophonist and songwriter Jørgen Munkeby as its leading force and only constant member. It is also referred to as SHINING (NOR) to avoid confusion with the eponymous Swedish black metal band of the same name.
