Lineup:
generally, the entire mood of the album is realised on the opening track, and here we have Sinner, which is well over 6 minutes long & that was a gamble that actually paid off. its like 2 awesome tracks in one. Joan Baez cover Diamonds and Rust is performed in a fantastic style, with Robs vocals sounding very soulful and convincing. Starbreaker is another catchy song where u can hear Rob clapping when the chorus is on! really surprising that this song was not given the credit it deserved.
Last Rose Of Summer and Here come the tears are 2 ballads here. Rob sounds like a heart broken ghost who screems his guts out looking for love on the latter, while the former surprsingly didnt become a radio hit.
Dissident Agressor is the heaviest song they played and it should come as no surprise that a decade later it was covered by the angriest band of all time Slayer
an interesting aspect here is they moved on from the relatively unknown record label Gull to heavy weights CBS, and this was a very impressive debut on a major record label.
Sin After Sin is forever
