Sinner's Blood is a melodic heavy/power metal project from Santiago, Chile, built around Chilean producer and multi-instrumentalist Nasson and featuring Chilean vocalist James Robledo, known for his work with Renegade (Chile) and Thabu (Argentina). The band released their debut album The Mirror Star on Frontiers Records, drawing on the emotional and vocal traditions of Ronnie James Dio, Jorn Lande, and Russell Allen.
Sered's Sinners Moon pair symphonic and power metal from the small Trnava-region town since 2017. Their lunar-transgression name channels the celestial light illuminating sin into orchestral compositions from western Slovakia.
A Pennsylvania black metal act that materialized in 2022, Sinnihte pursues a stripped-down, orthodox approach to the genre, favoring cold atmosphere and uncompromising rawness over production sheen or modern embellishment.
Sinnrs craft melodic black metal from the Danish underground, combining the genre's atmospheric darkness with harmonic complexity. Active since 2018, they bring sinuous melody to Scandinavian black metal.
Formed in 2024 in Enfield, New Hampshire, Sinnsearachd takes its Gaelic name into black metal territory rooted in isolation and the bleak New England landscape, a very new project staking out atmospheric, contemplative sonic ground.
Marysville, Washington's Sins of a Bullet have been playing death metal since 2012, working within the genre's Pacific Northwest tradition of heavy, technically grounded brutality drawn from the region's long extreme metal lineage.
Yardley, Pennsylvania's Sins of Magnus have blended stoner and doom metal since 2010, combining the hazed, fuzz-heavy riffing of desert rock with the lumbering tempos and oppressive weight characteristic of East Coast doom.
Chicago, Illinois metalcore act Sins of Spira have been building out their sound since 2016, drawing on the city's rich heavy music underground to craft metalcore that balances melodic ambition with breakdowns and post-hardcore dynamics.
Santa Barbara, California's Sinsation formed in 2020 playing groove metal shaded with hard rock, favoring mid-paced, rhythmically punishing riffs and an accessible sensibility that bridges the gap between heavy and radio-friendly.
