Sinbreed is a German power metal band formed in 2005 in Wiesbaden.

Sinbreed was founded as Neoshine, and made it to release three demos under that name, but was forced to change to Sinbreed in order to avoid legal issues with an homonymous American company.

Their debut album When Worlds Collide was released in March 2010 and featured keyboardists Morten Sandager (Pretty Maids) and Joost van den Broek (After Forever), guitarists Oliver Lohmann and Andreas Iancu, and singer Thomas Rettke (Redkey, ex-Heaven's Gate).

In November 2012, Blind Guardian guitarist Marcus Siepen, who was already a session member of the band, joined them as a full-time member.

The band's second full-length album, Shadows, was set to be released by the end of 2013, but the date was postponed to sometime March 2014 after they signed with AFM Records.

By the end of November 2015, Sinbreed announced that Siepen would leave the band due to conflicting schedules with Blind Guardian. They also announced they would be releasing a new album in early 2016.
