Description

Reverend Kristin Michael Hayter: “SAVED!” limited Red Vinyl. Released 20th Oct 2023

First Album from Hayer’s Own Label, Perpetual Flame Ministries. First Full-Length Album After Retiring The Lingua Ignota Moniker

SAVED! is an apocalyptic revelation on the complex, sometimes ugly, always nonlinear

process of healing. Herein, Reverend Kristin Michael Hayter documents an earnest

attempt to achieve salvation through the tenets of charismatic Christianity, focusing on

the Pentecostal-Holiness Movement, which dictate that one’s closeness to God is

demonstrated through transcendental personal experience. Sonically and thematically,

the record is both a logical conclusion to and a significant departure from Hayter’s

previous work as Lingua Ignota.

Mirroring her personal evolution away from pain, she sheds the moniker that made her

successful for its unflinching expression of lived trauma and instead builds herself anew,

claiming her full given name, determined to see value within. Musically, while she

continues to use historical avant-garde technique and formal constraints superimposed

over accessible frameworks, she also strips down her instrumentation and degrades

audio to provide a sense of musicological antiquity. Similar to Lingua Ignota, the record

is steeped in pathos, but now the wrath of God gives way to His deliverance: “His

boundless love shall make you whole.”
