Former SISTER SIN vocalist Liv “Sin” Jagrell has released the video for “Immortal Sin”, featuring a guest appearance by Jyrki 69 from THE 69 EYES. Liv‘s rendition of the FIGHT song — which was originally featured on the Rob Halford-fronted band’s 1993 debut album, “War Of Words” — comes off Liv‘s recently released debut solo album, “Follow Me”, which was produced by the duo of Stefan Kaufmann and Fitty Weinhold. Liv stated about the collaboration: “[Stefan and Fitty] brought out more intense metal in me than I ever could imagine. These guys have been in the business and in this music for so long, so their experience really brought out the essence of our songs, for the better.”
The “Immortal Sin” video was directed by the team at Rawrec Productions in Sweden. Liv said about the track: “Stefan and I are both Halford fans and during the recording, we had a YouTube evening with only Halford songs, and we came across ‘Immortal Sin’ and we both love the riff. Stefan suggested that I do a cover of it so we tried it out the next day but I felt that something was missing, maybe another voice. And the song is perfect for a deep lower voice, so I called up my friend Jyrki from THE 69 EYES and asked him if he was interested, and the rest is history!”
From the gutters of south Sweden, Jagrell emerged as a major force as the vocalist for hard rockers SISTER SIN. Throughout their 13-year career, SISTER SIN sold thousands of albums and toured the world with high-profile tours supporting the likes of SLAYER and KING DIAMOND on the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, as well as being a part of the Revolver magazine “Hottest Chicks In Metal” tour. SISTER SIN toured relentlessly for over a decade across Europe and North America garnering an intensely loyal following of rockers that craved the band’s aggressive and melodic brand of hard rock.
When SISTER SIN called it quits at the end of 2015, Liv knew that she had much more to give to her fans. From this, LIV SIN was born. Liv‘s new music shows the power, sexiness, and attitude that she is known for.
Liv said: “For me, it has never been an option to stop singing. I live for the stage and for my fans. I still miss SISTER SIN, but I am very excited to work on my own project, and I can promise it will not be some soft pop rock. This is going to be metal deluxe, because that’s who I am!”
LIV SIN offers a modernized hard rock sound to take Liv into her next phase, a sound that is destined to please both new fans and her longtime fans of SISTER SIN.

Liv recently told East Texas Music Scene about the end of SISTER SIN: “There are no hard feelings, but the parting wasn’t exactly mutual. Neither me nor Dave [Sundberg, drums] wanted to end the band. We totally understand that not everyone felt that way and you can’t force people to play with you. So it was probably for the best before something got infected ’cause of people touring even if they were too burnt out from it.”
