Been listening to Sigh's latest a lot. It might be their best since Gallows Gallery as it reminds me a lot of that album plus The Holy Trinity of Sigh: Hail Horror Hail , Scenario IV: Dread Dreams , and their masterpiece, Imaginary Sonicscape .VIDEO It sounds a lot better mixed than pretty much all the albums they've done since 2001, but still a little poorly mixed. My other criticism is the new guitarist has some silly power metal twiddling or something, but I don't dislike it, it's just not Shinichi at his best—who, by the way, banged out some amazing riffs on their first six albums, but I feel was never quite suited for the faster, more aggressive sound they started with Hangman's Hymn . The whole band should have probably never gone in that direction and stuck to Mirai on vox/keys/bass, Shinichi on guitar, and Satoshi on drums (who got relegated to bass in 2005 to account for the faster playing style, lame), the original lineup that made their absolute best albums.
