"Well, I totally disagree w/ the reviewer before me saying if you like CoF, you will like Sigh! No way! Sigh is totally TOTALLY diff than CoF, and definitely better. This mCD consists of 6 songs (including intro/outro) The musik on here is not very easy to describe, so this will be hard to review, sure it's grim black metal, but it's more than that.. The intro starts off w/ the sound of funeral winds, and some truly weird keys, next is the most catchiest song on the disc, and also has some very weird horn sounds here and there, the vocals are grim and are usually pretty fast, the next song starts off w/ an acoustic and has Miria doing low rasped vocals along w/ some truly eerie chanting in the background it all sounds very relaxing for about 2 mins, but not for long next all hell breaks lose, it suddenly erupts into a horror movie w/ a sound i can't even describe, then the guitars kick in w/ some harsh/heavy riffs.. this is amazing!! The other songs is somewhat like this, using the horns, and eerie keys/synths.. The playing is usally kept on mid-pace, as well as the drums, but the vocals always seem to be pretty speedy.. Killer vocals!! The lyrics deal w/ the japanese occult and unholy powers. Well, I dunno if i described this very well or not, like i said, it's difficult.. it has to be heard to be believed! No ONE should be w/ out this mCD.. it's truly amazing, grim black metal! Next I will review their Hail horror Hail!"

Very original Japanese BM

"GFT is the first Sigh album I bought. Mirai and company play some of the most original, strange BM I've heard in a long time. You can hear piano, jazz, and some weird vocals. If you give it a couple of istens, in time you will enjoy it more and more. This is probably their heaviest release to date.Did you know that the legendary "Euronymous" of Mayhem released their debut album "Scorn Defeat" onDSP? If you are an open minded metal head, get GFT today."
