Kristin Hayter (born June 17, 1986) is an American musician from southern California.Classically trained as a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, Hayter began her professional music career in 2017 under the name Lingua Ignota (Latin for "unknown language"). Through the project, she solidified a signature sound that combines elements of classical music, opera, experimental music, and various heavy metal subgenres. Lingua Ignota's lyrics frequently explore themes of domestic abuse and retaliatory violence through heavy Roman Catholic symbolism, and Hayter has described the songs as "survivor anthems". These themes often manifest in extreme imagery and raw explorations of the internal rage and despair of survivorhood, and were drawn from Hayter's reported experiences in multiple abusive relationships.She has collaborated with and been featured by a variety of other artists, most notably sludge metal band The Body.In November 2022, Hayter announced that she would be retiring the Lingua Ignota project after a series of 2023 performances, citing the unhealthiness of reliving her trauma and a want to prioritize her emotional well-being. In the announcement, she also stated that she has plans to continue making music in other ventures. In August 2023, she announced her first new album under a new name and style: SAVED! as Reverend Kristin Michael Hayter. The album was released around two months later on October 20.

Pay Evil unto Evil
 Lingua Ignota (Music) / int_1d18887f
comment
Pay Evil unto Evil: Much of her music explores retaliatory violence of victims against their abusers, either real or fantasized. The background imagery for her performance-based MFA thesis featured serial killer Aileen Wuornos, who shot johns that had raped her, and her album All Bitches Die was inspired by reading Angela Browne's When Battered Women Kill. Ignota has also implied that she considers expressing these ideas with Christian imagery in the medium of Heavy Metal a sort of revenge against those traditions, both of which have long-standing patterns of justifying or glamorizing misogynistic violence.

comment
New Sound Album: Sinner Get Ready leaves behind most of the industrial and electronic elements of her first records and goes for a more eerie, avant-folk sound. Saved! is a considerable departure from the sounds of Lingua Ignota, comprised of mostly prepared piano and voice as well as intentionally shoddy sound quality.

Concept Album: Saved! brings in a unique concept; the album's cover art is based on real albums of evangelist praise music, and the music was recorded on tape and tampered with to make it sound like an actual obscure Christian album from the 60s that's been collecting dust in an attic somewhere, its sound quality weathered by time.

Sampling: Usually makes use of samples of people talking. "Disease of Men" and "Holy Is the Name (Of My Ruthless Axe)" samples serial killer Aileen Wuornos. The original version of "For I Am the Light" samples "All Things Bright and Beautiful," an Anglican hymn. "Sorrow! Sorrow! Sorrow!" samples Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich angrily eating a sandwich from the documentary ''Some Kind of Monster.'' "The Order of Spiritual Virgins" samples an episode of the reality TV show Alone, in which a man talks about how much he loves dead silence. "The Sacred Linament of Judgment" samples Jimmy Swaggart's infamous "I have sinned" speech. "Man Is Like a Spring Flower" samples an interview with Rosemary Garcia, the sex worker that Swaggart was caught with. "The Solitary Brethren of Ephrata" samples a CNN reporter interviewing a churchgoer, who proclaims she is "covered in Jesus's blood."

Meaningful Name: Lingua Ignota, latin for unknown language, was the name of the secret language used and possibly invented by the twelfth-century spiritual leader Hildegard of Bingen. Ignota has stated that she uses her performances to allow a greater power to speak through her, in much the same way Hildegard claimed to act as a conduit, and her work frequently deals with the idea of giving voice to experiences for which no adequate language exists.

Break Up Song: In an unorthodox way, "Man Is Like a Spring Flower" may count as this. While abstract, the lyrics refer to "the heart of man," (the heart of her abuser, and all other men she has tried to love) as "impossible to hold," and later, "one is not enough, no love is enough," which could allude to infidelity. It ultimately concludes that her attempts to make her unfaithful, abusive partner love her have all been in vain, and that she is better off alone, leading to the Despair Event Horizon on the final track of the album.

Sensory Abuse: Loves to play with this, aurally. When listening to any Lingua Ignota album, be prepared for the classical instrumentation to be interjected with a Jump Scare, Scare Chord, Metal Scream, or a wall of noise.

Mood Whiplash: In her tour diary, "Brick House" by funk band The Commodores opens the documentary, then is immediately cut off by "Pennsylvania Furnace."

Rearrange the Song
 Lingua Ignota (Music) / int_b24ce4b2
comment
Rearrange the Song: Most of the songs on Saved! as well as the entirety of The Index are covers of Christian hymns (and some African-American spirituals), however Hayter usually uses a different musical composition than the original. Compare Blind Willie Johnson's "I Know His Blood Can Make Me Whole" and Hayter's rendition.

comment
Last Note Nightmare: The final few seconds of "Man Is Like a Spring Flower," which crescendos into cacophonous noise. Inverted on "All Of My Friends Are Going To Hell," which starts with startling beep sound. "I'm Getting Out While I Can" cuts off prematurely to a frightening recording of Hayter speaking in tongues.

B-Side: Saved! The Index is a compilation of songs that didn't make the album. Also includes the thirteen minute recording of Hayter speaking in tongues that was used several times on the album, if you want to listen to that.

 Lingua Ignota (Music) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: References "Sexless//No Sex" by Iron Lung in "The Chosen One." She also made a full Cover Version of the same song on Agnus Dei. The title track on All Bitches Die takes the lyrics from the murder ballad "Knoxville Girl" by the Louvin Brothers, changing the perspective from the murderer to the victim. In her tour diary video, Hayter excitedly begins watching The Muppet Christmas Carol.

Genre Mashup: Her music is difficult to put into a single category, containing elements of neo-classical darkwave, black metal, death industrial, opera, avant-garde folk, harsh noise, and classical. Two short interludes on Saved! even veer into country music.
