International hard rockers Sainted Sinners return with their highly anticipated fifth studio album “High On Fire”, set for release on November 21st, 2025, via ROAR.
After almost three years in the making, the band is back with a powerful and diverse collection of songs, true to their motto: The Essence of Rock‘n’Roll!
The new record features the stellar line-up of Jack Meile (Tygers Of Pan Tang) on vocals, Frank Pané (Bonfire) on guitar, Ernesto Ghezzi (Gotthard) on keyboards, Samy Saemann (ex-Freedom Call) on bass, and Berci Hirleman on drums. Together they deliver a vibrant journey through 70s and 80s inspired heavy rock, full of soul-soaked vocals, groovy Hammond duels, intricate riffs, and a driving rhythm section.
To mark the announcement, Sainted Sinners release the first single “World’s on Fire”, accompanied by a brand-new music video premiering today! Watch the video below.
Frank Pané (guitar) comments:
“‘World’s on Fire’ basically wrote itself and that’s always a good sign. While jamming, I came up with this Van Halen-inspired riff and half an hour later the basic arrangement was done and just needed a middle part, which was provided by Ernesto and lend itself to an extended solo. A composition within the composition so to say. A real uplifting fun heavy rock groover but with a more serious lyrical concept”.
Rooted within the sound of the legendary acts of this genre, like Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, UFO and others but also with influences from different styles, with their forthcoming offering “High On Fire”, Sainted Sinners once again prove that classic hard rock can feel timeless, energetic, and inspiring for generations to come.
“High On Fire” delivers a feeling of good time Rock‘n’Roll vibes. Let’s forget and escape from all the bad things in life and enjoy life to the fullest with freedom of expression and a overall positive attitude: “There are too many negative things happening all over the world right now, and you can’t ignore that. However, you always have to stay positive and firmly believe that calmer and better times will come again, and we hope to help our fans stay similarly positive with our music and continue to believe that everything will be okay”, says Pané.
You can also feel that power within the album artwork, created by Frank and Miram Kollbrunner. “For me, it reflects the power we try to convey to the listener with our music. Whether you’re a ‘saint’ or a ‘sinner’, there’s a little bit of both in everyone. Life is also light and shadow. If you accept that for yourself, it gives you the freedom to enjoy life”.
