The Shining - 'I Wonder How' (Zuma)

3/5

By: Matt Tomiak

Despite being responsible for some of the greatest singles of the 90s, some of The Verve's sprawling psychedelic stylings had a tendency to veer towards self-indulgence. This is something ex-Verve guitarist and bassist, Simon Jones and Simon Tong respectively, seem to have addressed with their new incarnation, The Shining.

The Shining - 'I Wonder How'

A much leaner effort than was typical of their old group, 'I Wonder How' possesses a driving 'do-do-do' hook, aerial riff and a Britpop-style swagger. It might be a little too trad for some tastes, but for those that favour their indie bands anthemic and direct, The Shining will do very nicely indeed. Good name too, mind.
