MINISTRY/REVOLTING COCKS Guitarist SIN QUIRIN Interviewed; Video Available
February 12, 2009Metal Cin recently conducted an interview with guitarist Sinhue "Sin" Quirin of MINISTRY and REVOLTING COCKS. Watch the nine-minute chat below.
Sin Quirin is currently taking part in the ReVamp tour, also featuring the internationally renowned DJ Hardware.
The ReVamp tour, which kicked off in Houston on January 15 and runs through mid-March, promises to "wow audiences" with a truly unique experience as Sin and Hardware offer a genre-defying mix of remixes, mashups, and originals in an extremely innovative format.
Fan-filmed video footage from the January 24, 2009 stop of the ReVamp tour can be viewed below.
Sin's most recent credits include co-writing credits for the latest MINISTRY record "The Last Sucker" (2007, 13th Planet Records) and playing guitar on MINISTRY's "Cover Up" album (2008, 13th Planet Records). He also co-wrote the upcoming REVOLTING COCKS album "Sex-O Olympic-O" (February 2009, 13th Planet Records).
"One of my old bands had the same booking agent as MINISTRY, so [Al] Jourgensen remembered me, and in 2005, he asked me to work and play guitar with the REVOLTING COCKS with his record label, 13th Planet," Quirin recently told the Burbank Leader. "That was when I was like, 'OK, this is how the big boys make their music money.'"
"There's no school for becoming a rock star, so when you feel that passion and that fire, you've just got to go for it," Quirin added. "A few years after I opened [the Burbank Sounds car stereo and accessory store], I hired lifelong friends, and I knew I could trust them to run things while I was away. Then I slugged it out on the local circuit. People would come hit me up and ask if I could do lead guitar for them. I was just, 'have guitar, will travel.'"
