Crash & Burn

Crash & Burn came out on AFM Records in September 2008, around eighteen months after Mask of Sanity. The European tour behind it was followed by Sinner's first ever dates in South America and Russia — the label's own history flags it as the first time in the band's long career, more than two decades after they started. The limited edition carried "Fast Decision 2008", a re-recording of the 1983 song of the same name, twenty-five years on. The band's official site called it a forgotten jewel created under bizarre circumstances, and credited AFM's A&R man Markus Wosgien and drummer Klaus Sperling with talking Mat Sinner into it. "Revolution" got the video. King Records issued the Japanese edition on its Nexus imprint that November with three bonus tracks.
