“‘The Black Sun Shining’ has an extraordinary and unusual mood, with ambitiously-shaped and extremely original music. Dense and dark, but all the time inspiring. Difficult to define, while at the same time fascinating. The aesthetics, creativity, melancholy and feeling that we find on the album show us the infinite artistic possibilities of Marsh”
— MLWZ

“Multi-instrumentalist invokes Scandinavian melancholy and the spirit of the 1970s”
— Prog Magazine

“‘The Black Sun Shining’ finds Marsh channelling the introspective shadowlands of both Scott Walker and Marc Almond to bleakly majestic effect”
— The Sunday Experience

“This is a wonderfully eclectic set of fully realised songs. Haunting, discomfiting, ethereal, spiky and overall completely engrossing”
— Prog Rock Stuff

“Much darker and less psychedelic than the first solo album, THE BLACK SUN SHINING revels in gothic gloom, steady explosions of primitive and driving percussion, as well as heart-felt lyrics. There’s nothing Marsh does that doesn’t impress me, but this is — to my mind — his absolute finest effort”
— Progarchy

“'The Black Sun Shining' has a refreshingly unpolished charm, and cleverly mixes psychedelia, post-rock and 80's new wave sounds, with Dadaist melodies, haunting vocals and associations to This Mortal Coil, Dead Can Dance and other 4AD acts. Once more, Rhys Marsh impresses us as a strikingly versatile artist”
— Betreutes Proggen

“One might characterize the material as dark, vocal-based electronic-pop that conceivably would appeal to fans of both Depeche Mode and prog, especially those with an appetite for concise song-styled productions as opposed to complex, long-form epics”
— Textura

“Rhys doesn’t scream his message in your face like the archetypal nihilistic rocker. He’s far more seductive. There’s depth and texture here, seasoned with Rhys’s trademark melancholic crooning, and in places I am reminded of David Bowie’s Berlin trilogy”
— The Progressive Aspect
