Sigh announce re-release of ‘Scorn Defeat’

SIGH have announced the re-release of Scorn Defeat!

Originally released in 1993 after the band had signed to MAYHEM guitarist Euronymous’ emerging Deathlike Silence Productions, with the album eventually surfacing following his death (& also dedicated in his honour), now, the legendary debut album from the cult Japanese black metal legends will be re-released!

The album will be released as a special two-CD edition which includes bonus rare demo & rough mix tracks & a full live show, plus a booklet interview as well as on vinyl and digitally. The re-release is scheduled to be released in August, via Peaceville Records.

Mirai Kawashima, SIGH mainman comments, “Scorn Defeat is a magical album. Now we are more mature musicians with much more knowledge about music and better playing ability, but (or maybe I should say “therefore”) if we re-recorded it now, the album wouldn’t sound any better, as all the magic would be lost. What delights me the most is that the album we recorded almost 30 years ago is still loved and being newly re-released like this, which we never expected back then. This special release makes me proud and makes my life as a musician something meaningful.”

Scorn Defeat (re-release) is set for release on August 28th via Peaceville Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
