Hiss Golden Messenger - Devotion: Songs About Rivers & Spirits & Children [4LP] [ Vinyl ]

This limited-edition deluxe 4LP box set includes remastered reissues of three classic Hiss Golden Messenger albums-Bad Debt, Poor Moon, and Haw-plus Virgo Fool, a bonus album of Hiss rarities available physically only with this collection.

The iconographic artwork for each individual album as well as the box set and poster were designed in close collaboration between M.C. Taylor and artist Sam Smith to shed new light on this vital chapter in the Hiss Golden Messenger story. Each reissue features newly penned liner notes by Amanda Petrusich (The New Yorker), with John Mulvey (Uncut, MOJO) providing the essay for Virgo Fool.

Individually numbered in a one-time pressing of 2,200 of each format, the four-album set is housed in a beautiful cloth-wrapped slipcase with three-color foil detailing and includes an exclusive foldout poster.

Each LP, pressed on black vinyl, includes a two-sided insert with liner notes and full lyrics plus a download card, all inside a heavyweight jacket with a debossed cover.
