Sigh "Midnight Sun" [PV]

[@rpgdospica3264]

2023 and I'm here, I love Sigh but didn't know about that videoclip o/

[@jokelab]

You know, there are hundreds (maybe thousands) of great heavy bands. I have never heard anything remotely like Sigh. They're irreplaceable.

[@wingedstatue]

i like the proggy sound to this album, it feels 70's. I only own 2 sigh albums, this being 1 of them.It's got groove

[@MOGHARRofValhalla]

I think this is the first video I ever looked up on KZbin, many years ago.

[@k2a2l2]

just recently found this band but this album is so unique, absolutely love it

[@CarlAfuPhace]

This song is really cool, the keyboards and accent contribute to the overall jazzy feeling, in a way.

[@dragonhighlorde]

Been listening to Sigh since they were "Japan's answer to Emperor". Love it all.

[@HaXxorIzed]

Sigh are well known for experiment with Jazz/Psychadelic influences. This album was probably their most pronounced in that direction. Their latest has gone in a blackened thrash/atmosphereic/classical metal influence, with uses of everything from a choir to punk and doom riffage in places. Sigh went down the same path a lot of Black Metal bands do. They've become clearly Avant-Garde.

[@Sauce_Packet]

Yukito Okazaki (Eternal Elysium) provided the operatic vocals on that song. He engineered "Imaginary Sonicscape."

[@PennyDreadful1]

Sigh is unusually good at singing in english for a japanese band.

[@Moose1223]

Thanks. This fellow (the singer) obviously needs checking out.

[@blodhemn9]

Saw these sicko's last night in chicago. Fucking awesome.

[@ShitCrap]

@CrazyMetalMachine yep, I like the accent and "flaws" usually make band more unique and they deliver something different than the usual one strict genre bands.

[@rationalitysucks]

I don't know what's so avant-garde about this song. Just oldschool keyboard driven hardrocker with japanese vocals... anyway, it's awesome.

[@edisonmustainethrash6662]

Anyone Listening This Hell Masterpiece Or 2019 2020 2030 Eternity Sigh Fan Forever 🤘

[@purpleexperience5001]

2021

[@Maxpound]

The term "mindfuck" would be a understatement here.

[@Mesmerized]

I've been waiting forever for a Sigh Vid

[@hunterhinson2241]

Japanese Mr. Bungle? FUCK YEAH!!!!

Yaaaaaaarghhh now thats a mood! We all gotta rock till we still can!

[@xxDrPhil]

thanks for the info,

[@WhelanDrums]

Never heard of these guys but I like em 🥁🤟

[@Daarkvader]

they did that on purpose! they are an experimental band dude! i love it cause the album sounds similar to a king diamond album!(listen to the whole album) Greatest Metal Act out of Japan! also they didnt quit being brutal...d next album is brutal (hangman Hymn)

[@deffteapot]

Switched styles again with their album "Gallows Gallery" and decided to do an all clean album. Not to bad in my opinion, I do prefer their screams still due atmosphere, but this also has a nice touch.

[@username19237]

o_O That's really all that remains to be said.

[@dbelmont]

gallows gallery is a damn good album and midnight sun is catchy as shit. deal with it

[@aurifelix]

Sigh are lots of things, love 'em to bits.

[@ironroberthalford]

This song is amazing!

[@HighendDT]

great song!

[@MooMooCow888]

This is cool.

[@allhailpantera123]

@Bovokk Well obviously. What I'm saying is I've never heard a Japanese band that I liked. And I'm sure I've heard quite a few of them.

[@PKing1987]

This Song is from the Album Gallows Gallery, which is very experimental. High influences of Jazz, but still awesome^^ Love Sigh :D

[@WikiSorcerer]

Has a nice 60's flavor to it. Plenty of colors, a laid back, sun-bleached sound with just a pinch of Charles Manson. Nice. :D

[@ShitCrap]

I don't usually listen lyrics in songs so can't see why you must know them to like the music.

[@elcrowing]

Okay, the dude just VOMITED A SWORD. I'm pretty sure that was the most badass thing I have ever seen. Also this song is awesome.

[@Flowerpunkt]

I totally agree with you..with one exception - I doubt that Sigh is avant-garde band. Some of their stuff is kinda experimental (thats why they are better than most of black metal bands, they do not afraid to try new things), but not avant-garde. Avant-garde is mainly modern classical music.

[@SpartanLaserCanon]

The End Records sure does let some very interesting and different bands be on their lable which is cool.

[@unmatii]

this song is driving me loco, i cant stop listening, damn you Sigh

[@FormerlyMrBean667]

Nice Hammond! Sigh fucking rules.

[@LordNothing]

mmmm, catchy song, definitely out of the metal realm, hehehehe (that is not necessary bad, clarifying)

[@brownbess]

Looks like they've been watching a few Jodorowsky films. Wonderful!

[@gerardezramondia3899]

Sigh rules. Nuff said.

[@Sauce_Packet]

This is great!

[@Lethe8737]

This song is pretty good, and the video is reeeallly trippy.

[@xxDrPhil]

yeah man i totally agree. I respect that because at least they're always switching up their music instead of playing the same redundant shit like some black metal bands. Hangman's Hymn....all i gotta say is..masterpiece. I also saw them last night, and they killed. FUCK YEAH.

[@TechiRef]

Holy 70's, Batman!

[@Bigbillystrikesback]

sigh nvr ceases to rule

Why hate? :( I think that most of band would have the guts to make a song half metal half jazz style

[@limpboz]

Nice song from sigh!!!!!

[@SoulSecureOfficial]

@randomactsok yeah totally avant-garde

[@UNSCArcher]

It's like a Japanese deep purple

[@Moose1223]

I'm still wondering what the remastered version sounds like.. Still wondering whether it was Mirai who sang on Nostalgia or however that song's called, final track off Imaginary Sonicscape, as well.. It doesn't exactly sound like how.

[@ShitCrap]

you really see that they got into stoner music with this :D the drummer is evne wearing a Bongzilla shirt!

[@contagiousx4]

This song sounds so.... happy. I don't know... is it just me?

[@Miraihi]

ДЫХАНИЕ RESPIRATION РАБОТА HEART СЕРДЦА BEAT

[@Nickarrrrr]

"Gallows gallery" ist auch eher'n experimental Album von Sigh, das eher aus der Reihe tanzt.

[@Orcelot005]

I like their older stuff a lot better.

[@Midnight852]

This song's pretty awesome =]

[@InFlames767]

agreed

[@Ziltoid09]

This japanese band is awesome but this song lol Omg sounds a little bit of Devin Townsend Bad Devil, awesome

[@redsxz2007]

@dannygalaga Yeah I see it too. This song is kick ass, dunno wats being said but but thats caus i havnt seen the lyric sheet

[@malignous]

Some would do well to heed the disclaimer from Hail Horror Hail: "Every sound on this album is deliberate and if you find that some parts of the album are strange, it isn't because the music in itself strange, but because your conscious self is ill-equipped to comprehend the sounds produced on this recording." And realize Sigh is not for kiddies who just want to listen to metal and be angry at the world while they steal drinks from daddy's fridge.

[@Daarkvader]

also Sigh's inspiration actually comes from the 1 of the originators of BM, Venom! Look at how much venom covers they hav done! Sigh is no poser band.. they've been usin keyboards way before most BM bands. 5th. Sigh is Better than Dimmu. 6th. Sigh most black metal albums are Infidel art and scorn defeat. Hail Horror is partly avant-garde.7th Sigh is the best avantgarde band out there.8th English metal is gay(Cradle)..Sigh is not. i could go on... again i say to the uneducated, SIGH IS THA SHIT!

[@mikebott6940]

this needs an appearance by mekannibal.

[@Victimdevice]

Sigh is great Avantegarde.

[@Murkrust]

Yo, does Sigh tour much? I've not seen them live ever

[@malignous]

The remastered version is a bit disappointing. The production is improved, but they cut some of the vocals (namely from In a Drowse), and the intro on Confessions to be Buried has been completely removed. The bonus tracks are nothing spectacular. I really enjoyed this album, but the remaster isn't necessary if you already own it.

[@SpartanLaserCanon]

@Relastas Like Buckethead Does.

[@tristan344]

Somehow reminds me of one of those songs from Chowder

[@lennykx]

lol...that is groovy X)

[@BinkeyStubbs]

If this can't induce a bad trip then I don't know what can.

[@Rhademanthus]

Sigh = Best. Band. Ever.

[@MADNickosNose]

They are still awesome! Have your heard their latest album? Its as heavy and Black Metalish as their earlier stuff and its awesome! Anyway, personally, I prefer their last 4 albums over their older ones... My favourite's Imaginary Sonicscape! Awesome album with a very unique sound!

[@IlVeroRe]

The only Japanese band I really like.

[@BmsNcp]

i think you got that wrong.. he said they were "ONE OF" the first BM bands to be signed under "HIS LABEL" not he was the first label they were signed under... *looks puzzled* by the way .. nice vid.. i like the prog in it

[@burialgroundbelgium]

one of the few bands that keep re-inventing themselves ....

[@Numoku]

This song isn't bad. I love their other stuff too. Go SIGH!

[@allhailpantera123]

@Bovokk What you're suggesting my directive is is completely irrelevant. Read my comment again. It says that bands from japan don't duck because they're from japan. A lot of bands from Japan just suck. It's not because of where they're from that I say this.

[@ProfaneZugzwang]

After weatching this vid a couple time idk how anyone can say its NOT metal. It sounds hella heavy and thick, with ample amounts of psychedelic rock thrown in. I wish they'd mix this material with their older black metal stuff!....Now there'd be a crazy sound!!!

[@Joelvete6]

Wish I had listened to them earlier...

[@dannygalaga]

Is it just me or does that caucasian dude look like Krist Novoselic?

[@Flowerpunkt]

Well, what´s the difference between experimental and avant-garde music then?

[@metalbound7]

lol this song is catchy and funny, i like it. Still i prefer their Black Metal/Avantgarde style

[@tomg5516]

pretty good

[@cpl4life2cer]

you should listen to the old albums or the newest album Hangmans Hymn... its black metal.

[@FuneralMist]

Are you kidding? Moi dix Mois got nothing on Sigh. Sigh is the BEST avant-garde/black metal band of Japan, nothing can be compared to their minds.

[@mimivinyl]

Would you believe that that's me in the black wig, and long nails? I also made the costume that I'm wearing, alongside the director's artistic girlfriend, Red.

[@Radissen1]

hahahahhahahahaha so funny:D

Ehh...wouldnt it be just ...sad if they would be like all the other bands? They are unique damnit so deal with it!!!!!

[@ShitCrap]

also reminds me of Church of misery

[@matochiba]

Sigh can doit all night long as far as I'm concerned!!

[@RishiBhaskara]

has anyone uploaded 'in a drowse'? i cant find it and i cant be bothered to go to my car to get gallows gallery :P

[@ProfaneZugzwang]

Sigh rules. ALL of their stuff rules. From real black metal to their experimental shit. As for this song, it's still pretty metal. Bass and guitar heavy. Its got a thick sound reminiscent of early metal bands with some awesome experimental elements mixed in. Sounds metal to me. Yes, their newest album attempts to go back to their black metal days. I've yet to listen to it so idk if it's any good or if its even really real black metal or some gay crap that most bm bands put out nowadays.

[@flagwatch]

I have to say I really miss _Hail Horror Hail_ and _Infidel Art_. There are just too many repetitions and choruses in this new album. It's still odd, but it lacks the complexity it had, what kept me coming back.

[@plaguebacillus]

sound like psychedelic metal

[@Nyogtha]

HAILS TO THAT! Its a shame that metal heads who say they are open minded dont take time to check this shit out. Its probably because their feeble mind cant handle off time music.

[@rakujitsu]

dude seriously, how can you even compare the bands, they have nothing in common. that's like saying the colour yellow is better than Monday.

[@zomgandrew]

i'm as confused as you are

[@lukenis666]

lol, i see them tusday

[@0neJay]

Well, if some band's vocalist growls for example, it doesn't really matter if the language is Japanese or English, because you can't understand anything either way (Because of the growling, obviously).

[@sKunKeNsTeiN]

Hahaha is that Eric Cartmen from south park singing?
