Sister Sin - Black Lotus mp3 (2014)

Sister Sin is a female-fronted "old-school" metal band from Gothenburg, Sweden. Formed in 2003 and releasing various recordings via smaller indielabels they finally came out with their first proper debut via Victory Records in October 2008. Switchblade Serenades debuted as number 107 on Top Heatseekers first week of release in the US. The band did two US national tours in support of the album with bands like Motorhead, Otep, Ill Nino. Sister Sin also covered European soil on tour with Arch Enemy, as well as playing festivals like Sweden Rock, Norway Rock before entering the studio in early 2010 to record the follow up entitled "True Sound Of The Underground" with producer Henrik Edenhed Dead by April, Lambretta etc.

Having grown apathetic towards the popular trends in Sweden's hard music scene, SISTER SIN arose from the gutters of Gothenburg in 2002. Settling on their moniker because it represented their "bound to absolutely nothing" lifestyles, the furious foursome entered the local scene as a hard-hitting, undeniable metallic force.





Female lead vocalist Liv, guitarist Jimmy, bassist Chris and drummer Dave created a rough-around-the-edges yet relatable image of dysfunction and attitude. Backed up with fresh lyrics and gritty riffs, SISTER SIN set out to inject some of what had been absent from the heavy metal scene since the glory days of the early 80's. "We just try to deliver good rock-and-roll music with the old-school touch," notes Jimmy. "The style of music that we perform is an important part of rock history that deserves more attention."

In 2014 Sister Sin began recording their fifth album, Black Lotus, which is due for release on Victory Records October 27, 2014. On September 16 the band premiered lyric video for the new albums first radio single, Chaos Royale, on Metal Hammer.

SISTER SIN vocalist Liv Jagrell talks about "Black Lotus": "We always grow a little bit more into the metal scene for each record we do. But that's our roots. It's the really old kind of metal stuff. But also we get some inspiration from newer bands like ARCH ENEMY and IN FLAMES and stuff like that too.

"I feel that we tried to get heavier on this record than the previous record. Also, the production of it we draw to the heavier kind of sound, and I really like that because I'm into the heavy kind of music."






Regarding the recording process for "Black Lotus", Jagrell said: "We had limited time in the studio comparing to previous records. We had to find a way to make it work in the short amount of time that we had. So instead of doing the drums first, then bass, the guitar, and the vocals last, we actually did… well, we did do the drums first, of course, but then we kind of did vocals; and guitars we sometimes put after the vocals, and for us that was new. We had like two studios, so we worked simultaneously. I think it was good that we did some of the guitars after the vocals, because then we could actually work the guitars with the vocals better than we've done on the previous records. So that was kind of new."

According to a press release, SISTER SIN "skillfully inject elements of classic, metal-tinged hard rock in the vein of MÖTLEY CRÜE, ACCEPT and JUDAS PRIEST, while remaining contemporary, fresh and pushing heavy metal to wider audiences, akin to bands like THE PRETTY RECKLESS and HALESTORM."
