MARKING 35 YEARS OF THE BAND, THE NEW, FULLY & FLAWLESSLY RE-RECORDED OPUS OF BLACKENED THRASH MEETS CLASSICAL MUSIC PRESENTED ON CD IN JEWEL CASE / LP / Indie Exclusive LP.Japanese black metal legends Sigh formed in 1989/1990. The genre-classic debut 'Scorn Defeat' followed on Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions in 1993 & with each subsequent release, Sigh grew to become one of the country's greatest & most revered metal exports. With a journey through the strange & the psychedelic, incorporating a whole eclectic mix of genre styles & experimentation throughout their career, Sigh has remained a vital creative force in the avantgarde field whilst maintaining their old school roots, as witnessed with the stellar 2022 album, 'Shiki'.

 

As the band reaches the milestone of thirty-five years of existence, it was also time to re-visit their 2007 opus, 'Hangman's Hymn'. A compositional powerhouse in itself, the title was notably Sigh's first concept album; a mix of fast thrash metal from the 80's such as Wehrmacht, Sarcofago, Repulsion & classical music - especially German symphonies. However, Hangman's Hymn was always perceived to be not fully up to the band's own standards & expectations in its execution & production & so main-man Mirai Kawashima set about to finally do justice to this at times overlooked masterpiece of intricate songwriting, by making a full re-recording with the current Sigh sound & delivery, under the title of I Saw The World's End - Hangman's Hymn MMXXV.

Mirai himself explains the background to the project:

Hangman's Hymn, which was released in 2007, is one of my best compositions of my whole career, but it does not necessarily mean that this is my favourite Sigh album. The excessively monotonous drumming must be the biggest issue. The guitars are sloppy. The production is far from the best. And my orchestrations & vocals could have been much better. So what if we re-record this with better musicians & today's production? The idea was always in my head & finally the time has come to make it happen. I do know that re-recording can be the double-edged sword. Scorn Defeat has some flaws. So does Imaginary Sonicscape . But I will never ever re-record those albums as I am sure that it would lose their magic. But Hangman's Hymn is an exception. You can easily tell what I mean if you listen to this completely re-recorded version.

With Nozomu Wakai on guitar & the returning Mike Heller on drums, I Saw The World's End - Hangman's Hymn MMXXV is by far the fiercest, most brutal & the most symphonic Sigh album to date, with the added flawless delivery of the new members & new orchestration with real orchestral instruments. Finally, the production by Lasse Lammert also brings a whole other dimension to the album. Cover artwork appears courtesy of Eliran Cantor

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.

Madison Deserved Better
Format: Kindle
Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more. I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.

Pretty Darn Good
Format: Kindle
So I’ve been on a omega kick and this definitely hit the spot. Madison was frustrating at times with how she acted towards Lucas, Gray, and Rian. It was like she said towards the end, she didn’t believe she deserved nice things. It would have been nice to hear from her best friends again. They kind of were there in the beginning and the gone except for mention of text messages received from them. I feel like her friends would have been great help in encouraging Madison to go with the pack and never give Brent another chance because he was toxic. I loved Rian. His personality was awesome. His humor. His ability to make Madison comfortable whenever she was feeling overwhelmed. And the fact he fell for her and she fell for him first. They are cute together. I do feel like Lucas was the odd man out though. Like Lucas didn’t develop as much of a relationship with Madison. I would have really liked to see more development in the relationship between them. It was also the same with him and Rian. There is really no relationship displayed. Most of the relationship being displayed is between Rian and Gray. Nevertheless, I loved reading about the dynamic that came to fruition during the entirety of this story. Madison finally got her happiness. And Brent finally got punched in the face. Everyone got exactly what they deserve.
