Sin más means "no more" in Spanish. Also, this is the name of a Metal quartet from Bilbao in the Spanish Basque Country. Julen Martínez, Iñaki Goiri, Alain Ten, and Erlantz Guillarte have recently released their fifth album "Muerto por dentro" (Spanish: "dead inside"). The album contains a dozen tracks full a very idiosyncratic form of Thrash Metal.


I used the term Thrash Metal to describe the music because it fits the best as far as I can tell. Sinmás play a unique crossover of dark and atmospheric Alternative Metal with raging riffs and powerful vocals. Nevertheless, "Muerto por dentro" is very melodic and versatile. The backbone is thrashing and harsh while the lyricschange between melodic chants, intense narration and barked shouts.

Sinmás keep up the tradition of mid-90s Metallica and Pantera, but more intense than the first and more melodic than the latter. Also, I am reminded of German Crossover Thrash Metal band Übergang a little. And after all, there is a certain influence of Rock en español covibrating on the album.
Definitely an autochthonous release you should check out if you like 90s Metal and innovative music. Powerful, melodic and versatile.
