Hiss Golden Messenger - O Come All Ye Faithful

O Come All Ye Faithful is a seasonal album by Hiss Golden Messenger, released in October 2021 via Merge Records, with special vinyl editions including the Bone/Green/Red Splatter.

The record is a meditation on grace, loss, hope, and community, especially during times of uncertainty and isolation. Some tracks are arrangements of traditional Christmas hymns such as “O Come All Ye Faithful”, “Joy to the World” and “Silent Night”, blended with original compositions by M.C. Taylor, giving the album a contemplative, intimate, and introspective tone. The instrumentation features acoustic and electric guitars, organ, wind instruments, layered vocals, and guest contributions. The splatter vinyl edition makes this an attractive piece for collectors, combining striking visual aesthetics with quality sound. It’s ideal for listeners seeking holiday music that moves beyond standard cheer, one that encourages reflection more than exuberance.
