Sin After Sin is often received with mixed emotions. Firstly, it isn't a commercial music product at all, which makes it fascinating. A masterpiece to be slowly digested. This album is one of Priest's most intriguing, yet brilliant productions. It touches many musical ranges... it is heavy (ie. the Sinner), brutally heavy (Dissident Aggressor), furious (Call for the Priest), soft and moody (Last Rose of Summer), atmospheric (Raw Deal) and soulful (Here Come the Tears), et all.
Rob Halford's vocals and lyrics are at their peak here. Glenn and KK's guitars are imaginative, skillful and impressive. Ian Hill's bass is... hmmm, let's better skip that with Simon Phillip's (then still an teenager!!!) incredible drumming. Until this day I still can't believe some of the prodigious and intricate drums parts he laid down for those sessions (unfortunately, he only acted as a session player). Simon started a whole thrashy drum movement with his dexterity in Sin After Sin.
Roger Glover's production here is frequently critized for not achieving a heavier sound, but I disagree with that, as the end result is just what was needed musically.
The real beauty of Sin After Sin is that one can actually listen to many new subtle things each time one listens to it, no matter how many times played back... and that simply doesn't happen often these days. IT HAS MAGIC ALL OVER IT. This is a must item in any rock CD collection. A timeless classic and my favorite Priest album!

Hafta admit, I dig Priest. At this stage, Halford was still exploring as a lead voice. Songwriting is solid. Put out with a session drummer, but works great

The only worthwhile moment in three years of visiting my parents in South Carolina while I was in college was that one afternoon I picked up a radio station playng "Sinner". It was a new album at the time and I would have probably never heard it if not for that afternoon. It would be difficult to pick a high point on this CD, with Sinner, Diamonds and Rust and Call for the Priest, it doesn't let up. Great find, great buy, great disc.

Columbia Debut
This was Priest's first USA release. It was released in 1977 on Columbia Records, and the result is a solid piece of work. I would rank this in the Top 5 of all of their albums. Read more
