"The musical methodology here is mostly a safe play, giving very little in the way of surprise or innovation in form or timbre. But the simplicity of delivery brings with it a gospel-like message of redemption and hope as the album concludes, "Step back, Jack, from the darkness / But while I'm here / I'm gonna sing just like a songbird." As long as life carries on and the darkness exists, the world needs messengers of hope. Hiss Golden Messenger deliver that here on Hallelujah Anyhow, making it relevant regardless of time and place".

"Hiss Golden Messenger's bittersweet, new LP is full of fluttery soul-grooves, borrowing from various regional folk and blues traditions. It speaks to what it means to be a compassionate citizen today".

"The second album in 12 months by MC Taylor's Hiss Golden Messenger is shot through with both darkness and light ... But every song possesses passion and gravitas, making Hallelujah Anyhow a spiritual descendant of Van Morrison's Veedon Fleece".
