We’ve been featuring the work of Guildford-based rock band The Lunar Keys since 2022.

A string of singles has graced our pages in the past few years. They’re one of the acts to which we keep returning, most recently in 2025 through their fundraising anthem Dreams Are Never Spoken, which was released in aid of their friends’ daughter Aria.

Their latest track, Sinner, gives us quite a different vibe. Reflecting on morality, false identities, and distorted truths, it holds up a mirror to our modern dystopia.

Opening slow and brooding, the intro seethes before soulful, gritty vocals come in. Through the first verse the arrangement slowly builds, finally arriving at a fist-raising anthem. The lyrics there are defiant while the vocals get passionate, supported by layered harmonies.

For the single, The Lunar Keys teamed up once again with Grammy award-winning producer and mix engineer Brendan Dekora (NIN, Foo Fighters, Muse) and that explains how polished and accomplished it feels.

Sinner is another fundraiser, with the band pledging £1 for each of its first 250 reviews or airplays to Key4Life.

If you want to keep up to date with all The Lunar Keys are doing, you can do so by heading to their website, and by following them on Facebook, X, Spotify, SoundCloud, YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok.

Sinner is out now, and you can listen to it below.
