SPCodex:Social media/Shiny and Oh So Bright - Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun.: Difference between revisions

Shiny received generally positive reviews, with NME remarking that "The heavier moments refuse to act as a sledegehammer of alt-rock pastiche … Instead, it's a showcase of songcraft that's allowed to breathe and reveal itself. Bring on volume two. The dream lives on." Shiny peaked at #54 on the Billboard 200, at #2 on the US Indie chart, at #3 on UK Indie chart, and charted in at least a dozen other countries.

SP originally presented 8 demos to Rubin with the intention of releasing one as a comeback single. Rubin approved of all 8. They originally planned two 4-song EPs, before deciding it would take the form of a full-length album, the first and last bearing the 'Shiny' title.
