Mindless Sinner - keeping it true; to expel the false
Mindless Sinner
Keeping True Alive
Pure Steel Records
May 5th 2023
As the album title declares, they affirm that it is a real live work, and not a fraudulent recording. They are saying that they did play these songs in front of a concert audience at Keep It True festival in Germany in 2015 and that this is how they actually sounded. How honest are those statements? Only the band knows, but some of the comparison that I have done of the Keep It True YouTube footage and this recording do match, including in the “imperfections.” This live album captures them rocking out and it is very enjoyable. Mindless Sinner (1981-2014, with periods of inactivity in between) is a traditional heavy metal band from Sweden that in 1983 issued the EP Master of Evil. They returned in 1986 with a full-length album titled Turn on the Power. The vocals are prototypical legacy-style singing, melodic, strong and energetic. The guitar rhythms are definitive heavy metal: uptempo and rocking. In 2015 they returned with the album The New Messiah and followed up with 2020’s Poltergeist. Look it, the name of the festival is called Keep It True. Mindless Sinner is no swindle. Get you some no-nonsense heavy metal.

For your information, here is a YouTube video of the band at Keep It True. The album sounds like this. The album does not sound like the vocalist went back into the studio and re-recorded his parts. It sounds like this, but with a different mix, to make the sound more balanced.
