Sep. 6, 2025: Update: Temporary Message Board Closure Update: Board ourage has been delayed due to consultant's schedule. Outage TBD. The company hosting the message board sprung a surprise price hike on me that would have more than tripled the monthly hosting costs, so I've been scrambling to find an alternative. I've purchased a license for self-hosting a different platform and am hiring a consultant to migrate the existing board's content (posts, user profiles, etc.). However, this means I need to shut down the message board for anywhere from 3 days to (hopefully less than) a week so the data can be migrated. While this is an expensive proposition up front, it should result in some long-term savings. I will post updates here. The main site (where you are reading this), will NOT be affected. -Dan

The members of X-Sinner stretch their wings a little on this album. Originally due to be released under the band name ANGRY EINSTEINS, it seems the X-Sinner name was placed on it at the last minute to boost recognition. If you're expecting the standard AC/DC and Def Leppard soundalike stuff X-Sinner is known for you may be disappointed, but fans of King's X, Soul Asylum and the like may want to give this one a try.

X-SINNER fans stay away from this CD. Stick with the first 2 CDs, you can't go wrong. 3/10

For fans of classic X-Sinner, this woeful side-project will be about as welcome as having your wife catch you screwing your ex-girlfriend. This is a sinful abomination of an album, shockingly lame power-pop, with nary a good song in sight. Instead of lumps of coal, Santa should just put copies of this CD in the stockings of all the bad boys & girls. Am I being too harsh on this album? Maybe, but you don't have to be an Einstein to figure out that this sucks...just one listen will do the trick.
