SAINTED SINNERS – Taste It (2021)
Not even a year after their highly acclaimed 3rd album ‘Unlocked & Reloaded’, SAINTED SINNERS return with their newest collection of songs under the band’s own motto ‘The Essence of Rock’n Roll’. With their new effort “Taste It“, the band continues their creative, melodic n’ rockin’ flow.
From the big riff driven up-tempo opener “Against the Odds” to the final orchestra decrescendo in the epic “Heart of stone”, Sainted Sinners takes you on a journey through all facets and musical diversity that a Hard Rock album should have.
Founded by guitarist Frank Pane (Bonfire) with Jacopo Meille (Tygers Of Pan Tang) on vocals, Sainted Sinners are rooted within the sound of legendary acts, such as Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, etc the band once again proves that good old classic Hard Rock can be appreciated by all ages of rock fans for its variety and timeless approach.
When listening to this album you should feel in “good ol’ company” with music, which DNA is “the essence of Rock’n Roll”. If you like true hard rockin’ music made with great craftsmanship, look no further than “Taste It”.
The new album ‘Taste It’ is the next chapter Sainted Sinners’ open, an eleven songs longplayer that presents the beauty of heavy rock. Bands like Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Rainbow (‘Good Ol’ Company’) – that’s the inspiration for Pane and bandmates. Sainted Sinners use the entire bandwidth of classic rock in their songs, and it is the experience of each band member that adds to a very positive impression.
Frontman Jack Meille adds a lot of rock’n’roll spirit to the album. Well-crafted vocal lines, a few powerful screams and a great range is what makes each song to a little highlight. Ernesto Ghezzi’s keyboards provide a lot to the density of the album while the rhythm-section provides a strong heartbeat.
Sainted Sinners start into the album in a furious fashion. ‘Against the Odds’ has a short intro before the song shifts gears and turns into a thundering rocker. A hard rock rendezvous is what ‘Good Ol’ Company’ offers, and it is up to the bombastic closer ‘Heart of Stone’ to end the album in a soulful and powerful way.
To round off the width of inspiration, Sainted Sinners also added a cover version to their new album; ‘Losing My Religion’, originally from R.E.M., is turned into a rocking tune that is not too far away from its roots and at the same time got a different groove. Sainted Sinners adopted this song and added their own spice to it. The result sounds good and although it is a bonus track, I hope you will not miss it.
Sainted Sinners fourth album is a logical next step in which the band pick it up where they left off with the previous adding a slightly old-school atmosphere this time.
‘Taste It’ – that is the title of the album and also a recommendation for fans of classic rock and well-crafted traditional, timeless hard rock.
