One One One is the sixth studio album by the Norwegian band Shining, released through Universal on April 8, 2013, and Indie Recordings on June 7, 2013.

Overview

The Norwegian band Shining started out as an acoustic jazz quartet, but the sound of this new album, like its predecessor, Blackjazz, is more experimental and extreme than the band's first releases. It incorporates elements from black metal, progressive rock, and 19th and 20th Century classical music with the foundations of jazz music.^{[1] [2] [3]}

Reception

The album was well received by critics, with Heavy Blog Is Heavy awarding the album 4.5 out of 5 stars, and the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet rating the album a 5 out of 6.
