Hiss Golden Messenger - Terms of Surrender

NEW VINYL LP ON MERGE 2019

180 GRAM COLORDE VINYL.

"I composed the songs that became Terms of Surrender with no guarantee that they would ever become a record; they felt too raw to be of interest to anyone but myself. They were my therapy and my church. But then we were there in Aaron Dessner’s studio in upstate New York, and in Sound City in L.A., and Roger Moutenot’s Haptown Studio in Nashville, and Phil Cook’s harmonica was screaming and Jenny Lewis was singing and Josh Kaufman’s guitar was etching the cosmos, and I realized that maybe these songs were good for something after all, and it wasn’t my year to die.

Limited, indie-only Peak Vinyl includes coke bottle green color vinyl & large foldout poster.
