Infidel Art Explained
Infidel Art is the second studio album by the Japanese black metal band Sigh. Considered a maturation of their overall sound the songs on this album are longer and more atmospheric than those on Sigh's previous effort Scorn Defeat; five of the album's six songs exceed the eight-minute mark.[1]
