The Shining in the spotlights!!

This week is The Shining week!

Robert made a review regarding this album which you can read below.

Review of RanestRanes second 2cd album Shining based on Stanley Kubricks movie from 1980 with my fave actor Jack Nicholson in the leading rol......again I highly recommend to see the movie....and if possible...synchronize it with the album....you`ll be amazed!!!!!

As the first album Nosferatu had a more "classic and symphonic" touch.....Here we get to hear a more "aggressive" side of RR, more guitar-riffs and pumping bass....

cd.1 contains 12 tracks whom are beautiful mixed with movie-scenes .....again RR managed to catch the mood of the scenes perfectly ....sinister, dark, suspense, anger, fear….

Although quite a lot of tracks have movie-sounds in it, there a still some who would fit perfect in a live-set without the movie to back it up......this time I`m not going to tell which ones....you find out yourselves...but it keeps 

the "attention" throughout the whole cd without being boring...

cd.2 contains 11 tracks….same story...and here you should really try to play movie and music in synchro `cause when Jack breaks down the bathroom door with his axe?? (classic scene from the movie).....SUPERB!!!!!!....BRILLIANT!!!!!

What RR really does perfect is finding the way to build up the tension during the movie….

the  Labirinto-scenes with Jack chasing Danny???.....Wonderful!

Here too,like on Nosferatu... RR saves the best for last .....the end pieces are so beautifully done that you want to play them over and over again....(at least thats what happened to me..)...

The concept "cine-rock" isn`t an easy thing for a musician.....I play guitar, bass and drums myself so I think I know little about the "problem" the guys have to face in doing this.......they are more or less stuck in "time-frames".....the movie can`t be changed....scenes are as long as they are...

In the "normal" way you can make the songs as long as you want.....and live even longer!!!

Gilmour´s solo on C-numb has gotten longer over the years......I`ve been listening to some very good solos of Massimo and would love to hear more and I guess he would have loved to carry on with them too....but....new scene, new sound....and that is for the whole band the same story….not easy…

But they managed it well!!

Fact is that "shining" is a very good album with some exciting and surprising elements in it......it also has the feel the band has grown as a "unity"......its feels as if we`re dealing with four brothers instead of 2 (Massimo and Danny are brothers)......Riccardo, Maurizio,Massimo & Daniele ...are playing with heart and soul….and that is what we hear on this album….and we thank them for that.

Robert.
