Description:

With I Saw The World’s End: Hangman’s Hymn MMXXV, Japanese legends Sigh resurrect and reimagine one of their most acclaimed works, transforming it into an even grander, more unhinged celebration of chaos and creativity. This MMXXV edition elevates the original’s symphonic black metal core with richer orchestration, sharper production, and the boundless theatrical flair that has defined Sigh’s avant-garde legacy.

The album surges with blistering riffs, haunting choirs, and whirlwind arrangements that move between brutality and baroque elegance. Mirai Kawashima’s unmistakable vocals lead the descent into a surreal, apocalyptic narrative steeped in occult imagery, esoteric philosophy, and operatic grandeur. This re-envisioned edition feels more cinematic, more intense, and more utterly unpredictable — a chaotic ritual of sound that only Sigh could conjure.

For fans of Emperor, Limbonic Art, Master’s Hammer, and the boldest reaches of experimental extreme metal, Hangman’s Hymn MMXXV is a triumph — a dark, bombastic, genre-defying opus that reaffirms Sigh’s place as true pioneers of the avant-garde.
