Visual Kei/Metal Stars lynch. are currently celebrating their 13th anniversary and while it is an achievement to stay successful in the music business for such a long time, it is particularly remarkable at lynch.

And rightly so, because after a short break the band returned strengthened to the big stages. On their way up the band staged a storyline, told through "SINNERS -no one can fake my blood-", which also allowed their previously disgraced bassist to return to them and the eagerly waiting fans. Now they finally release their new album "XIII", which convinces with 13 energetic, loud and powerful songs and certainly shows fans once again why the band belongs to the greats. Fans of metal and hard rock music will not be disappointed here, because the band takes the listener into a sound world full of hard and fast beats, melancholic tones mixed with powerful growls and a fascinating storyline.
