THE END RECORDS to Reissue SIGH's 'Imaginary Sonicscape'

Since their inception in 1990, Japanese metal act SIGH has continued to push boundaries with each and every release. Often labeled as a Black Metal band, SIGH's music has been and continues to be inspired by varied styles besides Black Metal including '80s thrash, classical, jazz, '60s/'70s rock and more.
January 20th, 2009 brings the reissuing through THE END RECORDS of Imaginary Sonicscape, originally on Century Media (2001). Included will be bonus tracks, extended versions of songs and a previously unreleased track.

Imaginary Sonicscape features a liberal serving of vintage keyboards such as Minimoog, Hohner Clavinet, Fender Rhodes and so on, and was planned, explains bandleader Mirai Kawashima, as "something you should smoke to. The music does not belong to any country or any era. It's a 100% imaginary world and this is the most psychedelic and exotic album Sigh to date.

"For the original release in 2001," Mirai continues, "we removed 'Voices' and cut 'Bring Back the Dead' short, but this time around we've decided to return to the original plan by adding these and 'Born Condemned Criminal,' which was only on the Japanese release originally, so now Imaginary Soniscape has become a nearly-80-minute trip to hell!"
