Since the beginning of the Eighties Sinner has
been one of the best hard rock bands on the German scene, they have
released 14 full-length albums, one live album and five best of.
I was expecting 'Mask of Sanity' to be a Power/Heavy
metal album but I was wrong, on “Mask of Sanity” the true meaning of
Hard Rock is executed. It’s like a softer/slower version of Primal
Fear meets Thin Lizzy and Deep Purple. Just check out the groovy
“The Sign” or “Under the Gun” with a great combination of Hard Rock
and Heavy Metal. “Can’t Stand the Heat” is pure Thin Lizzy. There
are no fillers on this album, and we are even treated with a great
cover version of Thin Lizzy’s “Baby Please don’t Leave me”.
“Mask of Sanity” is packed with great craftsmanship
it’s easy to hear that these guys have been in the music business
for a long time. Mr. Mat Sinner has also done a fine job with the
production.
If you’re into Hard Rock then you can’t go wrong with
'Mask of Sanity'.
Sinner will be touring with Vengeance and Chinchilla in
March, go check them out.
Recommended tracks: Yes, the entire album.
