"Utterly insane, yet also uniquely compelling" – Kerrang! Take two parts black metal, a dose of late-eighties thrash metal, the spirit of Coltrane-inspired free jazz, a dash of pop sensibility, a hint of twentieth century classical music and some hallucinogenics – that's Sigh, an extraordinary trio hell-bent on introducing the world to their bizarre brand of extreme music. The years have seen Sigh morph into a psychedelic, avant-garde metal band intent on smoking all pre-conceived notions of the black metal genre. Their drug-infested, schizophrenic sounds have inspired rave reviews from some of metal's most respected voices: Terrorizer characterizes Sigh as a "f*cked up, crazier-than-a-sh*thouse-rat Japanese Metal Assault", while Kerrang! describes their music as "utterly insane, yet also uniquely compelling".
