Kin is the third studio album by British thrash metal band Xentrix. It was released on 27 March 1992, and was their second album released through Roadrunner Records. The album goes more into a progressive approach than their two previous albums and was considered by the band to be the biggest mistake during their career.[2] With a peak at No. 74 on the UK charts, the album was the last charting album for the band and the last album with vocalist/guitarist Chris Astley until his return in 2006.[3]
