Speaking of tours we’re co-sponsoring, Sigh hit the road in just a few weeks for a U.S. trek with Zimmer’s Hole and Unexpect. While you wait with baited breath for this kick-ass tour to begin, why not consider putting your high school marching band dork skills to some good use and help out one of the best black metal acts in the world today?
In a statement, the band says:
“Sigh are looking for a trumpet player who could contribute the next album. If you play the trumpet or you know somebody who could help us with it, please send us a message. If you can record the trumpet parts at your house and send us them in .wav files, that’ll be perfect! We’re looking forward to hearing from you!”
The brass band was one of the things that made Sigh’s last offering, Hangman’s Hymn, so fucking awesome; so if you do happen to play the trumpet, get off your ass and you could be on the next Sigh album!
And hey, while we’re talking about Sigh, check out our interview with Sigh vocalist/bassist/general mastermind Mirai Kawashima?

FUCK! Why didn’t I waste my youth learning how to play the trumpet?!
Who knew? Invest in embarrassing nerd activities, get embarrassing nerd opportunities.
Seriously, a trumpet? Have these guys ever even heard of black metal?
Yes, a trumpet, and Sigh could produce better black metal with said trumpet then a hundred million norwegians living in a hundred million forests recording on a hundred million two tracks for a hundred million years.
I actually met them at the show last night in NYC, and I’m going to be trying out.
