MARKING 35 YEARS OF THE BAND, THE NEW, FULLY & FLAWLESSLY RE-RECORDED OPUS OF BLACKENED THRASH MEETS CLASSICAL MUSIC PRESENTED ON CD IN JEWEL CASE / LP / Indie Exclusive LP.Japanese black metal legends Sigh formed in 1989/1990. The genre-classic debut 'Scorn Defeat' followed on Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions in 1993 & with each subsequent release, Sigh grew to become one of the country's greatest & most revered metal exports. With a journey through the strange & the psychedelic, incorporating a whole eclectic mix of genre styles & experimentation throughout their career, Sigh has remained a vital creative force in the avantgarde field whilst maintaining their old school roots, as witnessed with the stellar 2022 album, 'Shiki'.

 

As the band reaches the milestone of thirty-five years of existence, it was also time to re-visit their 2007 opus, 'Hangman's Hymn'. A compositional powerhouse in itself, the title was notably Sigh's first concept album; a mix of fast thrash metal from the 80's such as Wehrmacht, Sarcofago, Repulsion & classical music - especially German symphonies. However, Hangman's Hymn was always perceived to be not fully up to the band's own standards & expectations in its execution & production & so main-man Mirai Kawashima set about to finally do justice to this at times overlooked masterpiece of intricate songwriting, by making a full re-recording with the current Sigh sound & delivery, under the title of I Saw The World's End - Hangman's Hymn MMXXV.

Mirai himself explains the background to the project:

Hangman's Hymn, which was released in 2007, is one of my best compositions of my whole career, but it does not necessarily mean that this is my favourite Sigh album. The excessively monotonous drumming must be the biggest issue. The guitars are sloppy. The production is far from the best. And my orchestrations & vocals could have been much better. So what if we re-record this with better musicians & today's production? The idea was always in my head & finally the time has come to make it happen. I do know that re-recording can be the double-edged sword. Scorn Defeat has some flaws. So does Imaginary Sonicscape . But I will never ever re-record those albums as I am sure that it would lose their magic. But Hangman's Hymn is an exception. You can easily tell what I mean if you listen to this completely re-recorded version.

With Nozomu Wakai on guitar & the returning Mike Heller on drums, I Saw The World's End - Hangman's Hymn MMXXV is by far the fiercest, most brutal & the most symphonic Sigh album to date, with the added flawless delivery of the new members & new orchestration with real orchestral instruments. Finally, the production by Lasse Lammert also brings a whole other dimension to the album. Cover artwork appears courtesy of Eliran Cantor

Comfortable and light!
Color: Brown, Size: Large
Wanted something that was going to be lightweight but had those longer sleeves because I do still get a tad chilly even on the warmer days. This is perfect, the fabric is lightweight and breathable, the loose cut around the waist adds to the top's "breathability," but it still keeps you cozy and warm on those chilly mornings! The brown is a lovely warm-coffee tone and it hasn't faded a bit in the wash. Very nice shirt to add to your collection!

looks nice, well made and styish.
This was a gift for a friend. It is well made, has a good modern style to it, comfortable to wear, she is taller, and it fits her well. Its a bit warm, so a fall kind of clothing option.

Great for layering or wearing on its own!
I’m 5’6” and ordered the small — it fits perfectly! The color is exactly as shown in the pictures, a beautiful beige that goes with everything. The fabric is incredibly soft and comfortable, making it great for layering or wearing on its own. I’m really happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it!
