Mat Sinner, best known as the frontman of PRIMAL FEAR, has announced the end of his band SINNER after 45 years of hard rock evangelism.
The decision comes following the release of a 21st full-length studio album titled "Boom Bang Goodbye," which marks the band's final project.
SINNER will not be performing further shows, and the band is officially calling it quits.
The album features an all-star vocal lineup, including Renan Zonta of ELECTRIC MOB, Michael Bormann of former JADED HEART, Ronnie Romero, and Bjorn "Speed" Strid of SOILWORK, with Magnus Karlsson of PRIMAL FEAR contributing to the closing track "Power." The record showcases SINNER's signature style—short, sharp, and melodic hard rock—with a strong emphasis on radio-friendly choruses and unpretentious songwriting.
"Boom Bang Goodbye" is described as a culmination of Mat Sinner’s career, with no indication of a shift toward progressive or EDM-infused music.
The album’s tracks, such as "Dreams Can Come True," "Wait," and "Leave It All Behind," are praised for their straightforward appeal and enduring hooks.
The production is lauded as the best in the band's history, with each song delivering a clear structure and emotional resonance.
SINNER’s final album is not intended to redefine the band’s legacy, but rather to affirm its place in the pantheon of traditional hard rock.
While the band’s greatest works are not explicitly ranked, the record is considered one of the finest in the SINNER discography.
The announcement closes a chapter in the band’s history, though fans can still enjoy PRIMAL FEAR, which remains active under Mat Sinner’s leadership.
Everyone's a winner." The album is set for release on September 22, 2024, through the band’s label, and will be available globally via streaming platforms and physical formats."
