Single nummer drie is terug wat braafjes voor mijn smaak. Helemaal in lijn met de titel van deze song druipt het hier van de weemoed. Naar het einde toe toch even een gebald moment, kwestie van de aandacht erbij te houden.
Shining verschijnt op 18 oktober 2024 via Century Media Records.

Juha Raivio comments on the new song: “This song talks about how melancholy can be comforting, safe and even a beautiful place. But when it turns into your God, it will surely kill you.”
Mikko Kotamäki adds on “MelancHoly”: “I’ve heard these days people call great and catchy songs bangers. Well, this one truly is one.”
More than two decades of despair, beauty, and heartache have not only shaped but fueled Finnish melancholy torchbearers, the chart-topping and two-time Finnish Grammy nominated Swallow The Sun. Formed in Jyväskylä in 2000, the quintet has enjoyed numerous fan-lauded music videos (10+ million YouTube views) and streaming dominance (50+ million Spotify plays), while also embarking on a four-continent, 900-show run over the course of their 20-year career. Their new music, however, is the group’s first step on the new path to the unknown.
