During the fading days of big melodic arena rock, Shelter stayed true to their love of big songs, big guitars, and the endless wall of vocal harmonies. Spanning across the lat '80's, the 90's (as JT Shelter) and post Y2K as Paradise Now and back again to the original Shelter name, the songs were always big and full sounding, never getting sidetracked by the changing musical landscape.
