st.sinner

**st.sinner** is an Australian alt-rock band from Canberra, known for blending punk, metal, hard rock, and dark pop influences into a high-energy live show experience notable for its mosh pits and intense stage presence. The group centers around lead singer Rory Maclean, who also uses st.sinner as his personal moniker, alongside drummer Caleb Jonas and guitarist Sam Thornhill. They emerged with attention through singles like "Mr Prime Minister" and "DEAD FOR THE WEEKEND," and their debut EP *Politics and Other Drugs* earned them a solid following with over 100,000 Spotify streams. Their sound has evolved recently with tracks like "HEADCASE," which marks a genre shift embracing a fusion of house beats with heavier guitar and screamed vocals, reflecting their experimental growth and collaborative production work, including with producer Tim Wisbey.

Thematically, st.sinner tackles personal and societal struggles such as anxiety, isolation, and intrusive thoughts, often mixing raw emotional honesty with energetic, cathartic performances. Rory describes their songwriting as a reflection of internal conflict and acceptance, giving psychological experiences form through their music. Their message during the pandemic, as in the single "Alone Together," emphasized solidarity in solitude. With a growing Australian fan base, st.sinner continues to push boundaries in alternative rock with their unique sonic blend and compelling narratives.
