Biografie : Sigh

Sigh were formed in April of 1990.
They did two demos before the 'requiem for fool' 7"EP on Wild Rags.

The 7"EP led us to sign to Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions. The debut album 'Scorn Defeat' was recorded in 1993, but Euronoymous had been murdered before it's release. Voices of Wonder Records took over DSP and released the 'Scorn Defeat.'

Sigh then moved to Cacophonous Records and released:

Infidel Art (1995)
Ghastly Funeral Theatre (1996 mini album)
Hail Horror Hail (1997)
Scenario IV: Dread Dreams (1999)

'Hail Horror Hail' was chosen as one of the most important 100 heavy metal albums of the nineties in Terrorizer Magazine.

Sigh signed to Century Media Records and then released 'Imaginary Sonicscape' in 2001. The album was well received worldwide.

Sigh recruited the new drummer Junichi Harashima, and Fujinami shifted to the bass in the beginning of 2004.

In 2004, SIGH recorded the sixth album 'Gallows Gallery' and it was released by Baphomet Records/Candlelight Records/ Season of Mist Records.

The seventh album 'Hangman's Hymn' , which is the fastest and the most symphonic album by Sigh, was released in 2007 on The End Records (US) and Osmose Prodcutions (Europe). It was charted 11 on CMJ Loud Rock Chart as soon as it was out.

‘A Tribute To Venom' was released in September 2008 on The End Records to coincide Sigh's first US tour with Canada's Unexpect.

The eighth album “Scene from Hell / Tempore Belli / Vanitas” is now being recorded and will be released some time in 2009. The album is going to feature a real string quartet and brass players for the massive orchestration. THIS IS HELL, THIS IS WAR, THIS IS DEATH!!!!!!!
