LINGUA IGNOTA

Caligula

PROFOUND LORE

Coruscating catharsis and vengeance from California’s vocalist extraordinaire

Originality is a rare bird these days. It comes in the strangest shapes and colours, and sometimes it intrudes violently. With the 2018 re-release of All Bitches Die through Profound Lore, the world of extreme and experimental music was confronted with the sheer force of Lingua Ignota, and it was almost impossible to look or listen away. Kristin Hayter, the woman behind this transgressive project, made sure her voice was heard. It’s a voice of indomitable power and fragile delicacy. One that moves from venomous destruction to ruptured mourning with ease and finesse. If All Bitches Die didn’t make you shake in awe of the compositional and vocal brilliance of the classically trained musician, then her new album, , surely will.
