Endelig kommer de japanske cult legender i SIGH forbi Danmark som en del af deres "30 YEARS OF EASTERN DARKNESS" EU TOUR FALL 2023"
Sigh:
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, but Euronoymous was murdered before its release, and Voices of Wonder Records took over DSP and released the 'Scorn Defeat'.
Sigh then moved to Cacophonous Records and released:
-Infidel Art (1995)
-Ghastly Funeral Theatre (1996 mini album)
-Hail Horror Hail (1997)
-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.
The sixth album 'Gallows Gallery', the debut album for the newly recruited Junichi Harashima, was released in 2005 by Baphomet/Season of Mist Records (US) and Candlelight Records (Europe). It was chosen as No.14 album of 2005 in UK’s Terrorizer
The seventh album 'Hangman's Hymn' , which is the fastest and the most symphonic album by Sigh, was released in 2007 on The End Records (US) and Osmose Prodcutions (Europe). 'Me- Devil'from this album was featured on the Canadian heavy metal documentary movie 'Global Metal' directed by Sam Dunn. Also 'Inked in Blood' ranked at 31st in 21st Century's Top Metal Songs at Loudwire.com.
'A Tribute to Venom' was released in September 2008 on The End Records to coincide Sigh's first
US tour with Canada's Unexpect. This is the first stuff to feature Dr. Mikannibal who joined the band in the end of 2007.
The eighth album 'Scene from Hell' was world widely released in January 2010 on The End Records again.
In 2011 Sigh signed a worldwide deal to Candlelight Records and released the ninth album entitled 'In Somniphobia' in March of 2012.
In 2014, You Oshima joined Sigh as a new guitarist. He is the mastermind behind the one- man project Kadenzza, who released two albums on Holy Records (France). His stage debut with Sigh was at the concert with Emperor in Tokyo in July of the same year.
In April of 2015 the tenth album 'Graveward', which features You Oshima on guitar for the first time, was released via Candlelight Records.
In 2018, the 11th album 'Heir to Despair' was released again via Candlelight Records. This heavy, psychedelic and exotic album is Sigh's first attempt to intentionally taken in Japanese / Asian musical feel. This album features a few guest appearances such as Philip H. Anselmo (no explanation needed!) on vocal and the ex-Estradasphere shamisen master, Kevin Kmetz.
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.

+ Support: Hiraki + Chronicle
Hiraki:
HIRAKI deploys an aggressive style of progressive synthpunk from the edge of the abyss.
As a part of Denmark’s flourishing underground scene for dark and heavy music, the three-piece presents a sonic assault to accompany the inevitable fact:
Our world is sick and we all take part in maintaining the fucked up systemic structures!
Encouraged by boundless acts like Botch, Street Sects, and The Body, HIRAKI relies on gnawing synthesizers, ripping guitars, and crushing drums to deliver the foundation on which vocalist Jon Gotlev spits his lyrics about corrupted data and moral decay.
Following the acclaimed 2021 release ‘Stumbling Through The Walls’ through American label Nefarious Industries, HIRAKI is now putting all energy into creating new music to accompany an increasingly complex reality.

Lyden af Chronicle er en voldsom bastardisk kombination af melodisk dødsmetal og tekniske/thrash-elementer. Lynhurtige trommer, øresønderrivende vokaler og fængende guitarmelodier er nøgleingredienserne i denne metal-cocktail. Bandet består af kompetente musikere, som hver især har mange års erfaring med at optræde foran menneskemængder i alle størrelser. Bandets energiske liveshows afslører en ægte passion for musikken, og hvert medlem af bandet er fast besluttet på at gøre hver optræden så unik og energisk som muligt. Chronicle har spillet live over hele Danmark, inklusive nogle af de bedste metal-begivenheder og festivaler, landet har at byde på, og har også begivet sig ind på tysk territorium.
I 2023 udgiver Chronicle deres 3. fuldlængde album, "Where Chaos Thrives", som vil løfte deres lyd til et nyt niveau af brutalitet og teknikalitet. Med produktion, mix og mastering af Tue Madsen (Meshuggah, The Haunted, The Black Dahlia Murder) og artwork af Samuel Nelson (Allegaeon, First Fragment, Vale of Pnath) bliver albummet et kompromiløst, frontalt dødsmetal-angreb!
Albummet er uden tvivl bandets mest ambitiøse værk til dato. Et udstillingsvindue for både deres hidtil mest tekniske musikalske færdigheder og samtidig deres mest sammenhængende album. Musikken, teksterne og artworket udgør tilsammen en helhed, større end summen af dens dele, hvor alle albummets forskellige aktiver understøtter pladens centrale tema – menneskehedens forestående undergang grundet vores selvforskyldte ødelæggelse af jordens økosystem.
