Old Empire & Doomstar present SIGH plus supports live Downstairs at The Dome
Sigh were formed in April of 1990 and did two demos before the 'Requiem for Fools' 7"EP on Wild Rags, which led them to sign to Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions.
The debut album 'Scorn Defeat' was recorded in 1993 by Mirai Kawashima (Ba, Vo), Satoshi Fujinami (Dr) and Shinichi Ishikawa (G), but Euronoymous was murdered before its release, and Voices of Wonder Records took over DSP and released 'Scorn Defeat.'
Sigh then moved to Cacophonous Records and released 4 albums, ‘Infidel Art’ (1995), ‘Ghastly Funeral Theatre’ (1996 mini album), ‘Hail Horror Hail’ (1997) and ‘Scenario IV: Dread Dreams’ (1999).
'Hail Horror Hail' was chosen as one of the most important 100 heavy metal albums of the nineties in UK’s Terrorizer Magazine.
Sigh then signed to Century Media Records and released 'Imaginary Sonicscape' in 2001. The album was again well received worldwide.
Sigh have experienced lots of US/ Europe tours including the festival appearances such as Hellfest (France), Graspop Metal Meeting (Belgium), Brutal Assault Open Air (Czech Republic), Roadburn Festival (Holland), Hammer Open Air Festival (Finland), Damnation Festival (UK), Inferno Festival (Norway), Under the Black Sun (Germany, headliner), Metal Magic Festival (Denmark, headliner), Maryland Deathfest (USA) and many more. Their show is truly theatrical and spectacular with lots of fire and blood.
