Describing their record as “the culmination of our journey from the past two years with massive development as songwriters and musicians,” which clearly shows within the outcome of eleven individually strong tracks. As the band comments:

“At the same time this album process has been the biggest pain in the ass, and also the driving force on our lives. While listening to the record, you can taste lots of these kind of extremities, and feel our mighty struggling in life, which is also one of the main themes lyrically.”

If you consider yourself a fan of modern and melodic metal music, “SINister” might be one of your new favorite albums of 2023.

The band also recently released the fifth and final single before the album release, “Shotgun,” which combines groovy melodies and heavy riffs in one song. The band comments: ”With its super groovy and rebellious temper, ‘Shotgun’ represents another extremity from our second album called ‘SINister.’ Lyrically it’s full of discharge, defiance, and self-destructive actions: if you have already managed to drive yourself crazy, the only way to deal with it is to top the speed and fight the fire with fire. ‘Shotgun’ is an unambiguous party anthem, and will do the needed last preparement before the album release as the final single. PULL THAT TRIGGER!”
