1) Sinner is a German heavy metal band formed in 1980 by vocalist and bassist Mat Sinner (Goddess Shiva, Primal Fear). Their most recent album, 'Mask Of Sanity' was released in January of 2007.
Based in Baden-Württemberg, Sinner released their first album, Wild'N'Evil' in 1982. This album, along with the next two ('Fast Decision' and 'Danger Zone') were raw affairs, having little in common with the melodic metal they would later become known for. After many personnel changes, the band saw the addition of Accept's Herman Frank on guitars and the release of 'Touch Of Sin' in 1985. Frank would leave before the next album, 1986's 'Comin' Out Fighting'.
1987 saw the release of 'Dangerous Charm', a much more melodic album than previous efforts, but shortly after this the band took a break and wouldn't be heard of again for five years.
In 1990 Mat Sinner released a solo album called 'Back To The Bullet' with a completely new band. This same band reformed Sinner and released 'No More Alibis' in 1992, an album far heavier than anything Sinner had released before. This renewed vigour coupled with songwriting that far exceeded the band's previous releases not only carried on but strengthened with 'Respect' in 1994 and 'Bottom Line' in 1995, the latter staying in the Japanese national charts for five weeks. Since the reformation the band's reputation had improved immensely, touring as support for bands such as Mr. Big and Savatage as well as headlining their own German tour and releasing a live album. Sinner were to reach even higher peaks though, releasing two hugely successful albums with 'Judgement Day' in 1997 and 'The Nature Of Evil' in 1998 before touring Europe as support for rock giants Deep Purple. 'The Nature Of Evil' was the band's most successful album to date, reaching 63 in the German album charts.
In 1998 Mat Sinner and Tom Naumann, who had been with Sinner since their reformation in 1992 formed Primal Fear with ex-Gamma Ray vocalist Ralf Scheepers. Mat Sinner has been involved as a driving force in both Sinner and Primal Fear to this day.
In 2000 the band saw its first line-up change in five years as several members left, including guitarist Tom Naumann while ex-Helloween and Gamma Ray's Uli Kusch filled in on drums for 'The End Of Sanctuary'. However, in 2003 the previous 1995-1999 line-up renewed itself and released 'There Will Be Execution' before going quiet again for four years. In the past nine years the band had released six albums, each as good, if not better than the last, proving to be the band's most successful period. This success would continue, as after releasing two more albums with Primal Fear and an album with his pre-Sinner band Goddess Shiva, Mat Sinner brought Sinner back with mainstays Tom Naumann (guitar) and Frank Rössler (keyboards) to release 'Mask Of Sanity' in 2007. This album spawned two popular singles in 'Diary Of Evil' and 'Black' and included a faithful rendition of Thin Lizzy's 'Please Don't Go'.
2) Sinner was British NWOBHM band formed in 1978 which released one single Need Your Love / Beggar / God's in His Heaven (1979).
3) Polish death metal band.
4) Blackened hardcore from Niagara, Ontario, Canada. https://sinnerculture.bandcamp.com/
Hypnotized
Sinner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have your postcard and some magazine
There's no hope, just a tear
Oh your magic, is desire burning in my heart
I need someone who is there for me
And the feelin' comes again when I touch you
[Chorus 1:]
Nowhere to run
Still standin' in the rain - Standin' in the rain
No place to hide
It's still the shadow play
[Chorus 2:]
Nowhere to run
I'm hypnotized
I'm on fire
You got the key to my heart
Nowhere to run
I'm hypnotized
I'm out on the streets...
And I wish that you were here
Walkin' down the boulevard
I get the feelin' that you can't be far
And I wonder ... if there's too much fancination
It's hard enough in the danger streets
Forget the trouble if you won't believe
I've got my pride ... and I just stay alive
[Chorus 1 & 2]
[Solo: Mathias / Angel]
[Chorus 1 & 2]
The lyrics of Sinner's song "Hypnotized" describes a state of being entranced by someone who is not physically present but who has left reminders in the form of a postcard and magazine. The singer is overwhelmed by a burning desire for this person and needs someone who can be there for them. They feel a strong connection with this person that keeps them from being able to sleep at night. Despite trying to run away from their feelings or find a hiding place, they are still hypnotized and on fire for this person, who holds the key to their heart.
As the singer walks down the boulevard, they feel an intense longing for the person they are hypnotized by, wondering if they are nearby. The danger of the streets is no match for the singer's pride, as they stay alive and forget their troubles. The chorus repeats the feeling of being nowhere to run, still standing in the rain, with no place to hide. The shadow play is still there. The solo by Mathias/Angel adds a rock element to the song, drawing out the powerful emotions that the lyrics express.

I have your postcard and some magazine
I'm holding onto anything that reminds me of you
There's no hope, just a tear
I'm feeling hopeless and sad without you
Oh your magic, is desire burning in my heart
Your enchanting presence has left me with intense longing
I need someone who is there for me
I'm looking for someone to be my support system
And the feelin' comes again when I touch you
Whenever I think of you or have physical contact with you, my emotions resurface
Ooh I can't sleep at night
I'm unable to sleep because I can't stop thinking about you
Nowhere to run
I can't escape my feelings for you
Still standin' in the rain - Standin' in the rain
I'm stuck in the storm of my emotions
No place to hide
I can't conceal my intense longing for you
It's still the shadow play
I feel like I'm living in a shadow because of my strong emotions for you
I'm hypnotized
I'm under your spell
I'm on fire
My emotions for you are burning out of control
You got the key to my heart
You're the one who has access to my deepest feelings
I'm out on the streets...
I'm wandering aimlessly because I'm consumed by my desire for you
And I wish that you were here
I long for your presence and want you to be with me
Walkin' down the boulevard
I'm walking down the street lost in thought
I get the feelin' that you can't be far
I have a strong sense that you're not far away
And I wonder ... if there's too much fancination
I question whether or not my feelings for you are too strong
It's hard enough in the danger streets
The world is already dangerous, and my strong emotions make it harder to navigate
Forget the trouble if you won't believe
Ignoring my feelings won't make them go away
I've got my pride ... and I just stay alive
I have my dignity, and I'll keep going even if it hurts me emotionally to do so

M. Dieth is a great guitar player, he did fantastic six string work on a few UDO albums. I also love Angel Schleifer's guitar work on Bonfire - Point Blank album in 1989.
