“The record is just killer, full of menacing death metal that doesn’t lean too hard into the old- or new-school sound; think a crossbreed of Book of Black Earth, Deicide, and Fleshgod Apocalypse sans opera, and you’ll have some idea of what these guys are like. Modern death metal fans will love the band’s technicality and production, while classic headbangers will dig their atmosphere and badass riffs. Definitely get into them.” – Metalsucks (Aenigmata – 2016)
“Aenigmata is the band’s latest release, a merciless, destructive Death Metal album in its finest form. Inspired by the occult writings of Alchemy and the dissection of the faith in mankind, the album delivers much darkened and more ferocious sounds than the previous releases. Having a close kinship with bands like Morbid Angel, Immolation, Nile, Behemoth, Krisiun, Dead Congregation and the likes in terms of sonority, the opus is a perfect blending of unilluminated Traditional Death Metal & remorseless Brutal/Technical Death Metal. The 09 tracked album is likely to be embraced by the fans of OSDM & Dark Themed Technical Death Metal.” – Extreminal (Aenigmata – 2016)
“The Hungarians from Sinf Of God play high-energy death metal, and when their riffs hit our eardrums, you get the impression that Attila himself is leading the wild hordes, leaving behind fields of destruction strewn with the corpses of enemies.” – KVLT (Aenigmata – 2016)
“There’s very little to complain about “Aenigmata”, it sounds damn good, both from a musical and production perspective. The songs are varied and technical and it took a few spins for the record to settle but that normally is a good thing as it grows for each spin… it’s a solid Death Metal record and with this, I should go easily to it when digging out Brutal music.” – Metal Kaoz – (Aenigmata – 2016)

About The Album Artwork:
It is metaphorically based on humanity’s current state in the light of human history. We wanted it to be realized in the style of Renaissance paintings therefore the contrast is extremely sharp between beauty and uglyness. Pure and evil. Perfect and deformed. Obviously, there are religious references, and Biblical characters, too.
About the album as a whole (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):
Blood Bound both lyrically and musically resonates with our present society. We are in decline and we haven’t got much time before we hit the bottom. There is less and less beauty in our present world. We are rapidly marching towards the rotting chaos. People do nothing about it. They destroy but do not build. So let it be!
Track by Track (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY)
Blood Bound:
A pair of brothers who were separated in their childhood and were tormented, but after getting over their anger, they try to rule together again, but in the end they go crazy.
Black Waves:
An apocalyptic world created by the human mind from which there is no escape and the black waves of depression will forever engulf you.
No Return:
A person who cannot get rid of drugs and sacrifices everything is going to hell.
The Unbelief:
The story of a queen who refused the power of the gods. As punishment, one of the gods cursed her and drove her insane. She even killed her own child for her joy.
Diabolical Agitation:
At the temptation of the lord of hell, even the most pure-hearted virgin can join the power of darkness becoming the mistress of hell herself.
Obulus:
The hunger for money and its uselessness after death. After all, only the burial coin has value as payment for death.
Cerebral Malfunction:
The struggle with schizophrenia, at the end of which the original personality is lost forever and replaced by an evil one.

Fun Facts – Story Angles
1. In ancient times, Sin Of God performed together in a concert series with the band Farcry. After the performance, a guy came up to us and said: We came here with our band to laugh at you guys, we thought you were crap but you put on such a brutally good show!” This arrogant guy was Tamás Kis, the current guitarist of Sin Of God. Well, yes, we conquer everything and everyone!
2. When recording Aenigmata, one of the members at the time had a definite idea about the guitar sound. „It has to be raw and muddy!” – he said. The only problem was that everyone else thought the guitars sounded like crap that way. Since he had a reputation for being rather sudden in nature, we had to devise some ruse instead of open confrontation. We tricked our man into the pastry shop and had a good time while the guitarist secretly re-recorded the guitar tracks in the studio. By the time we got back, all the tracks had been replaced. Do you think he noticed the change? Let’s just say that the new guitars can be heard on the album. 😀
3. The following story is also connected to the recordings of Aenigmata. Our accommodation was in the studio. The sound engineer just got engaged to his classy girlfriend, who was also in the room where we were, for a very, very long time. The romantic nature of the story was enhanced by the fact that our guitarist at the time got gassy that very evening and farted all night. We must have made a lasting impression on the little lady!

In the spring of 2004, the band was born. After a few small concerts and recorded demos, we prepared the Satan Embryo EP in 2009, with which we were able to step up and do many foreign concerts. In 2012, our first album, entitled Limbus was released. There were many conterts to come with big names and we were able to play at prestigious festivals abroad. Aenigmata was published in 2016, which brought another step up. It recieved highly positive reviews from all over the world. After tours and foreign festivals, we started writing the third album, however, the process stopped due to member changes. We started working on Blood Bound in 2019 with the new members, but due to Covid, the goal could only be to write the album, but there were no point in playing concerts. This led to member changes again. We finally were able to record our new full-length, Blood Bound in 2022-23. The mixing and mastering processes were done in 2024 by the super-talented Sam Winslow. The outcome is a blast! We are ready to show the world what creative death metal is!
