{"product_id":"4582798814114","title":"MINDLESS SINNER,Mind Metal Merchants Metal Mission Merchants Japan Music CD","description":"\u003cp\u003eProduct Description\u003cbr\u003e\nFrom Sweden comes a new album from veteran band Mindless Sinner, who debuted in the early days of Nordic metal and made a miraculous first visit to Japan in 2024! The Nordic metal scene, which became a major topic of conversation worldwide with the great success of EUROPE in the 80s, is the focus of this new album. MINDLESS SINNER, who debuted in Sweden in the same year as EUROPE, 1983, are finally making their Japanese debut with their 5th album, their first in 4 years, following their first visit to Japan in 2024! This new album explodes with uncompromising heavy metal from a band that remains committed to orthodox metal to an almost rugged degree! They started their activities in 1981 with their predecessor band, PURPLE HAZE, and debuted as MINDLESS SINNER in 1982 with the EP \"Master Of Evil,\" and subsequently released albums in '86 and '89. Although they ceased activity in 1990 during the grunge era, they reunited in 2014 for their 30th anniversary, and have since released two albums, continuing to be active to this day. What's amazing about this band is that four members from the 1980s are still with them, and original member Tommy Johansson (who left in 2022) maintains a strong bond with the band. (Incidentally, current drummer Linus Melchiorschen also joined the band at Tommy's recommendation). Bound together by an ironclad bond centered around the unwavering vocalist Christel G?ransson, their new album \"Metal Merchants\" is full of power metal infused with the atmosphere of good old Nordic metal and is sure to be a big hit in Europe and Japan! At their Japanese tour in February 2024, they delivered an incredible live performance, unleashing ultra-traditional heavy metal with plenty of twin guitar work directly influenced by Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Saxon, and Motorhead. Their highly anticipated new album features 13 tracks, including bonus tracks! All but two (\"Let's Go Crazy\" and \"A Madman Is Crying,\" both written in the 80s) are brand new songs! Regarding the album title, vocalist Christel said, \"Don't you think it's a cool title? This is a tribute to all the people who live for heavy metal!\" Liner notes: Lyrics and translations included.
