Shining Blade formed in 1981 in Bari thanks to Francesco D'Elia (vocals), Jimmy Troccoli and Fabio Pignataro (guitar), Francesco Collela (bass) and Michael Rainieri (drums).
The sound of the quintet was approachable from the beginning to speed metal, although in those days were few bands that sounded like that.
Between 1983 and 1984 they released two demos, the first called "On The Battlefield" and the second entitled "Ace Of Blades".
After many live appearances, such as the Festival of Certaldo, and inserted in various compilation tracks like "Freakish Footsteps "and" Winged Snake ", the band recorded a full length.
This new work, titled "Touch the Night" marked the turning point of the group, both musically and commercially. Shining Blade, which until then had played speed metal, heavy metal came up in American style, (Riot and Van Halen, and Journey's AOR).
This mix of sounds, each different, is contained in the ten tracks on this album of Italian Metal,
this album was never officially released at the times, but in the 00's it was released as a bootleg.
The band disbanded in 1987.
Touch The Night is the first full length by Shining Blade, officially unreleased at the times but recorded in 1986.
