SINNER To Release Touch Of Sin 2 In August 2013; Details Revealed




Mat Sinner, bassist for PRIMAL FEAR and frontman for SINNER, has issued the following announcement:


"Breaking News: ….. but where do we start? ..... maybe at the beginning :-)


When we were younger and new to the music business, we were proud to
be part of the Noise Records family and to get the chance to sign a
contract with them. Reading this contract so many years later, you can't
but shake your head in disbelief and wonder what must have possessed
us. The exclusive rights to the recordings have since been bought and
sold numerous times with the effect that none of those who owned them
has ever had any relation to either the production itself or to how it
was created.





Today, the older Sinner songs still enjoy great popularity within
the scene. We continue to play them live even though the CDs aren't
available any longer. It is Universal who owns the albums at the moment -
but does not distribute the CDs. Therefore, they're to be held
responsible that CDs from this era can only be purchased at exorbitant
prices. Unfortunately, the musicians and songwriters involved have no
means of dealing with the matter - our hands are tied. When I offered to
do a remix on several songs for a Best Of album, I was told that the
original tapes have mysteriously disappeared and were probably burned in
an 'accidental' fire. That much about the pearls of our past.


AFM Records and I - business partners for many years - came up with
the idea to once again record the best songs from this era. The album
was supposed to feature several guests and to come with a wicked fan
package. Initially, I was sceptical, but recent shows have shown the
amount of fun and energy the band would put into these songs. However, I
will only put this plan into action under one condition: the whole band
has to lock themselves into the studio and record the whole thing
together. I'm fed up with the assumption that it works if everyone
records their stuff at home or comes cheaper. That's bullshit - this
challenge meets us at exactly the right time and we'll face it!


So we're gonna get started asap! Project Mission Impossible: Sinner -
Touch Of Sin 2! You better be prepared - Release date: August 30, 2013
on AFM Records!"
