Japanese black metal legends Sigh – share first offering from their new record ‘I Saw The World’s End (Hangman’s Hymn MMXXV)’

Japanese black metal legends Sigh have shared the first offering from their new record I Saw The World’s End (Hangman’s Hymn MMXXV), announced last month. 

Speaking on the new single Death With Dishonour, bandleader and songwriter Mirai shared, “this should be one of the simplest songs by Sigh but at the same time it’s got one of the strongest choruses in our repertoire. With a double-speed drumming and the real trumpet and violin, this re-recorded version sounds 100 times more violent and symphonic than the original. By the way, the ending is an homage to “Last Man Alive” by my favorite thrash metal band, Whiplash.” The single is accompanied by a new video by directed by Costin Chioreanu
