SH.TG.N is the reunion of a six-pack of Belgian musicians from different musical backgrounds: jazz, classical and rock.
It was founded in February 2009, by eclectic musician and current MoonJune Records' artist The Wrong Object keyboardist Antoine Guenet (who in meantime has joined another MoonJune Records' artist The Wrong Object).
The intention was to bring together all the music he loves, in a fun, extreme, and energetic way; the plan was to let it all out.SH.TG.N is also a statement. They are clashing all the uniformity in today's music, do what they want with no restrictions at all, and say it all loud! And that's just what they do. Vibraphonist Wim Segers, bass player Dries Geusens and drummer Simon Segers joined for this tour-de-force.
Right before their first gig in their hometown Ghent, Belgium, they were joined by guitarist Yannick De Pauw, which gave even more power to their sound. Later, they were joined by long-time accomplice Fulco Ottervanger on vocals. Composing a few new songs, writing lyrics, and giving a voice to the freedom scream of SH.TG.N, he brought the last ingredient to the mad professor's formula.
This explosive chemistry resulted in this live debut - a concentration of the dark, violent energy of metal, with elements of the best contemporary music, and the freedom of jazz.
