It includes all eight tracks from the original album, three bonus unreleased demo tracks, and two cover songs.  There is also new artwork and a poster that is included.  This is the only album with Johnny Sinn, who was later replaced by Jimmy Hitula.  <\/p>\n<p>This band has been around for a decade now, and re-releasing their first album shows the hard work that they have completed to earn their spot.  This is new ground for them that illustrates their hard rock \u201980s style.  <\/p>\n<p>Liv Jagrell left Hysterica to front Sister Sin in 2003, and music history has been made since that point.  The album begins with \u201cKiss the Sky,\u201d and it has a synthetic live sound to it.  From that point on you can hear a Motley Crue sound in songs like \u201cInto My Dreams\u201d and \u201cLove Lies.\u201d  The \u201980s comparisons continue with songs like \u201cMinor You (Minor Me).\u201d  Twisted Sister is certainly a band that comes to mind with these familiar \u201980s sounds.  The entirety of the album can just be labeled a flashback but in the best way possible.<\/p>\n<p>The cover of \u201cPaint it Black\u201d is top notch and can be thought as good as that of W.A.S.P\u2019s rendition.  Jagrell\u2019s voice leaves chills with a haunting hum over the well-known tune.  \u201cRock \u2018N Roll\u201d is another smooth cover that is done quite well.  <\/p>\n<p>Each song is an anthem that sounds like spandex and bandanas, but it still included a good head bang throughout the re-mastered album.  This is something new done to something that may never get old.   <\/p>\n<p>Genre: Heavy Metal, Glam Metal<\/p>\n<p>Band:<br \/>\nLiv Jagrell \u2013 vocals<br \/>\nJohnny Sinn \u2013 guitar<br \/>\nStrandh \u2013 bass<br \/>\nDave Sunberg \u2013 drums <\/p>\n<p>Track Listing:<br \/>\n01.\tKiss the Sky<br \/>\n02.\tDance of the Wicked<br \/>\n03.\tFall Into My Dreams<br \/>\n04.\tEnd of the Beginning<br \/>\n05.\t Love Lies<br \/>\n06.\tDirty Damn I<br \/>\n07.\tPaint it Black (The Rolling Stones Cover)<br \/>\n08.\tTragedy Loves Company<br \/>\n09.\tMinor You (Major Me) (Demo)<br \/>\n10.\tWritings on the Wall (Demo)<br \/>\n11.\tHead Over Heels for Love (Demo)<br \/>\n12.\tRock \u2018N Roll (Feat.
