The Sinner Rides Again is the second studio album by English band KK's Priest, formed by former Judas Priest guitarist K. K. Downing. It was released on 29 September 2023 through Napalm Records. Four singles preceded the album, including the lead single "One More Shot at Glory".[1]
Dom Lawson, reviewing the album for Blabbermouth.net, wrote that "it helps that like its predecessor, The Sinner Rides Again is an absolutely ripping metal record, with a huge, gleaming production job and performances that crackle with passion and intensity". Lawson singled out the vocal performance of Tim "Ripper" Owens as "his partnership with Downing takes him to new heights here".
Geoff Barton of Classic Rock called The Sinner Rides Again "all grinding desperation and lank-haired perspiration. There's no light and shade, only doom and demolition. If you're gonna get mauled by a lion, at least make it interesting." He went on to remark that the album is "so one-dimensional that one begins to question the very existence of the Spider-Verse".
