The Sin and Doom Vol. II is the sixth studio album by American Christian deathcore band Impending Doom.[6] The album was released on June 22, 2018.[1] The title of the album is a reference to Impending Doom's first demo release, The Sin and Doom of Godless Men, released in 2005.[1] The band members produced the album in a more hands-on style than their previous releases, with the assistance of Christopher Eck who produced Nailed. Dead. Risen., the band's 2007 debut album.[7]

The album received limited but generally positive reviews. Of the reviews collected, New Noise gave the album a perfect 5 out of 5, stating: "Trying to poke flaws in this album would just be fruitless work, for Impending Doom has successfully put together the best metal LP of the year so far."[9] Giving the album 3.5 out of 5 stars, HM Magazine noted that: "the new album surely won't disappoint fans of the band's catalog, even though it doesn't quite illustrate a deliberate personal relationship with Jesus as Nailed. Dead. Risen."[8] Amber Stevens of Metal Injection, giving the album 6 out of 10, described it as "damn well punishing enough for even the most critical, die-hard fans of the genre" and "a straight-forward, heavy hitting assault of the senses".[7]
