Japanese metal maniacs Sigh are to release a new album next year.
.
“In Somniphobia”, the band’s ninth full-length, will be released in March 2012 through Candlelight Records.
.
The LP is said to be “far more musically varied compared to the last two albums. Put heavy metal, classical music, jazz, Indian traditional music, Stockhausen, and Xenakis into a cauldron of hell and stir it, you’ll get ‘In Somniphobia’. It is a pure sonic nightmare that lasts more than an hour”.
.
Cover art for the new release comes courtesy of Eliran Kantor, known for his previous work with Atheist, GWAR, and Testament, amongst others.
