SIGH Begins Recording New Album

August 24, 2006

Groundbreaking Japanese act SIGH entered the studio today in Japan to commence work on its seventh album, titled "Hangman's Hymn", due out in 2007 on The End Records. The band will be working with engineer Takamichi Osada at Studio Moopies and will produce the album themselves.

About the new album, SIGH frontman/leader Mirai Kawashima says, "It'll definitely be by far the best album by us. The album is going to be the fastest, the most violent and the most symphonic ever recorded by SIGH!" He describes the sound as, "thrash-metal-meets-German-symphonies! Fast, heavy, bombastic and majestic!"

The final tracklisting for the album is:

Act 1:

01. Introitus/Kyrie
02. Inked in Blood
03. Me-Devil

Act 2:

04. Dies Irae/The Master Malice
05. The Memories as a Sinner

10. Finale: Hangman's Hymn/In Paradisum/Das Ende
