Sigh release official video for “Death With Dishonor”

Author Benedetta Baldin - 18.5.2025

Sigh, an avant-garde black metal band from Japan, has started streaming their re-recorded song “Death With Dishonor.” In honor of its 25th anniversary, the group re-recorded their 2007 album “Hangman’s Hymn,” as previously reported. Their new collection, “I Saw The World’s End (Hangman’s Hymn MMXXV),” is scheduled to be released on June 13th through Peaceville.

This should be one of the simplest songs by Sigh but at the same time it’s got one of the strongest choruses in our repertoire. With a double-speed drumming and the real trumpet and violin, this re-recorded version sounds 100 times more violent and symphonic than the original. By the way, the ending is an homage to ‘Last Man Alive‘ by my favorite thrash metal band, Whiplash. Mirai Kawashima
