Our Overview.
Channelling their love of classic heavy metal with a bruising modern edge, Swedish quintet Liv Sin launch their new album ‘Burning Sermons’ which is a riff-heavy collection; showcasing the band’s innate ability to match melody with aggressive metal with ease. Liv is in particularly fine form throughout, with a voice equally capable of capturing your heart as it is knocking buildings to the ground!
Following on from the acclaimed ‘Follow Me’ album, Liv Sin, led by the unmistakeable vocals of Liv Jagrell (ex. Sister Sin), the band return with the powerful and hard-hitting ‘Burning Sermons’. Just like with their previous album, the band invited a guest to sing with Liv in a memorable duet. On the upcoming single, ‘Hope Begins to Fade’, Liv got company by Bjorn “Speed” Strid, the well-known singer of Soilwork and The Nightflight Orchestra.
Liv Sin venture into a new chapter with ‘Burning Sermons’. An album that might surprise their fans initially as the quintet dive deeper into darker riffs with the addition of electronics, but they will definitely love the unforgettable hooks and the more pronounced melodic edge of Liv Sin, 2019!
Sweden’s Liv Sin was founded in 2016 and is led by the charismatic singer Liv Jagrell. After thirteen years fronting her former band Sister Sin through countless shows across the world, including shows with Slayer, King Diamond, Motorhead, Doro, W.A.S.P. and U.D.O., the band decided to call it quits. Not one to sit around, Liv soon got the desire to get back behind the microphone and set about finding a new band of brothers.
Their acclaimed debut “Follow Me” was released in 2017 (Despotz Records) and was co-produced by legendary German metal musicians Stefan Kaufmann (ex. U.D.O. & ex. Accept) and Fitty Wienhold (ex. U.D.O.). Showing a leaner, heavier sound, propelled by in-your-face guitar riffs combined with classic heavy metal power. Reviewers likened their sound as a mix of Judas Priest, Arch Enemy and modern American metal such as Five Finger Death Punch. “Follow Me” received a strong reception and the band hit the road across Europe as both headliner and support to industrial metal machine American Head Charge.
