SIJJIN

SIJJIN, the Portuguese-Brazilian dark metal project based in Brazil, defines a unique niche within the world of atmospheric sludge metal and black metal. With an intense focus on brooding soundscapes and a penchant for the avant-garde, SIJJIN explores the depths of metal’s darker corners while forging its own trail of innovation and artistic vision.

The band’s recent activity has seen them onstage at Manchester’s ALBERT HALL in October 2025, appearing as a support act for the renowned BLOOD INCANTATION, alongside ORANSSI PAZUZU. This live music event placed SIJJIN in front of discerning audiences, further establishing their presence within the international metal circuit and demonstrating a capability to command attention amidst some of the genre’s most compelling acts.

In their discography, SIJJIN’s commitment to pushing sonic boundaries is evident in tracks such as "Ad Infernalis Porta I (The First Gate of Hell)" through to "Ad Infernalis Porta VII (The Silence of SIJJIN)", and the darkly evocative "Géneses of SIJJIN (Intro)". Anticipation surrounds their "The Awakening EP07", scheduled for release in November 2025, promising even more immersive atmospheres and sophisticated compositions. Metal enthusiasts are encouraged to follow SIJJIN and keep an eye out for new gigs and concert announcements.
