Original Sin – Sin Will Find You Out

Roadrunner Records – RR 9679, Cobra (2) – none

Europe 1986

Saatanallisen kieroa speed thrash heavy metallia, jonka rinnoilla Girlschool näyttäytyy pyhäkoulutytöiltä. Se taasen johtuu siitä, että Original Sin ei ollut naisbändi. Kyseessä ei kuitenkaan ollut pelkästään naisista koostuva yhtye, vaikka bändikuva ja kokoonpanotiedot niin väittivätkin. Todellisuudessa kyseessä oli jälleen yksi niin sanottu ”metalploitation”-projekti, jonka toteutti studiossa Cobra -levy-yhtiön manageri Zoran Busic.

David DeFeisin mukaan kaiken musiikin sävelsivät hän itse ja Edward Pursino. ”Yhtye” koostui todellisuudessa Davidin sisaresta Danae DeFeisistä (laulu; salanimi: Danielle Draconis), Edward Pursinosta (kitara; salanimi: Cynthia Taylor), Joe O’Reillysta (basso; salanimi: Pandora Fox) sekä Mark Edwardsista (rummut; salanimi: Darlene Destructo).

Vinyyli erfittäin hyväkuntoinen, kansissa pientä reunakulumaa.

Levystä todettu mm näin:

A lot of stuff happened in 1986 for the guys in Virgin Steele. After their third album "Noble Savage" was released in 1985, the band's leader "David DeFeis" wanted to explore different music and had the idea to create a black metal album. He had problems finding proper members for this and ended up doing the vocals and playing the bass himself for Exorcist's "Nightmare Theatre" album. The end result was awesome and sounded pretty much like straightforward speed metal, which was basically one of the most popular music genre at that time. However, the music of Exorcist had a more horror themed atmosphere that differentiate them from other bands. After being done with Exorcist, the guys moved on and did another album under a new name. Original Sin is basically the successor to Exorcist and the album reviewed here actually surprised me after finally giving it a listen.

Originally, the main reason why I ignored "Sin Will Find You Out" is because I knew that "David DeFeis" handed the microphone to his sister "Danae". I usually dislike female fronted metal bands mainly because I despise the vocals and its lack of brutality and aggressiveness. It did not take long before my mind was blown away by the effectiveness of the music on this album. It is so good that I ended up liking the vocals even if it's not my cup of tea. When the first track called "Conjuration of the Watcher" begins, you can notice that the atmosphere created in "Nightmare Theatre" is still present. After the introduction, the song gets fast and heavy, but the female vocals actually brought an interesting melodic touch on top of it. Like in Exorcist, you can still see some randoms, but fun guitar solos by "Edward Pursino" in nearly every tracks. The songs are well structured for the genre and mostly have all a catchy chorus while the other parts are easy listening. Great example of that is "The Curse", "To the Devil a Daughter" and "Succubus", these songs had been my favorites because of how catchy they are.

There is not much to say about the production though, it's basically the same sound as Exorcist in "Nightmare Theatre" and the music is the same exact style as well. Usually, musicians that make the same style of music for many albums in a row end up with shitty results at some point, but these guys succeeded in writing lots of good songs of the same genre in a short period of time. The lyrical content of this album is also in the same vein, satanic, sexual and occult stuff, it's not really original, but still entertaining, at least. Out of the 10 tracks featured on the album, the "Slice of a Finger" and "Thunder War" tracks are both instrumental and did not brought any interest to me whatsoever. Another problem with this record is its short length of barely 33 minutes, thanks to Exorcist for having more material to enjoy with this. "Disease Bombs", The last song, which is the longest with its five minutes length is the one that has the most epic atmosphere. The fast-paced riffing with the effects added on the vocals makes an interesting evil vibe, however, the song is just longer because it also acts as an outro.

If you never heard of the side projects of Virgin Steele's leader "David DeFeis", then you might be surprised of how different it sounds from his main band. If you like speed metal, I recommend giving this album a serious listen even if you don't enjoy female fronted bands like myself because I actually ended up enjoying it pretty much like the Exorcist album, which I also recommend looking at. I am pretty sure that I was not the only one listening to Exorcist, but ignoring or not knowing Original Sin's "Sin Will Find You Out". I can confirm that was an error and this album also kills, so go ahead and give it a listen if it's still not done!
