Sinner Get Ready

On 'Sinner Get Ready', Kristin Hayter abandons the industrial grandeur of previous work for a sound rooted in the traditional music of rural Pennsylvania, creating dissonance with Appalachian instruments like banjo and dulcimer. Produced with Seth Manchester, the album explores themes of religious hypocrisy, divine judgment, and torment through Hayter's classically-trained, polyphonic vocals, which shift from operatic arrangements to raw, guttural cries. The album's unsettling atmosphere is heightened by the use of found audio, including samples from televangelist Jimmy Swaggart, marking a critically acclaimed and final statement under the Lingua Ignota alias.
