Hymns from Nineveh announce new Christmas album
Hymns from Nineveh, the "devotional folkpop" project of Danish artist Jonas H. Petersen, will be releasing the new album Endurance in Christmas time" on November 21. Said album will include the 5 songs from 2009's "Uncomplicated Christmassongs" EP plus 8 new ones. Also, though is indeed a Christmas album, Jonas says the subject is far more complicated: "These songs are about enduring the Christmas time. How to deal with loss, loneliness or despair in the Christmas time. But also - the songs discover what Christmas is about, and what comfort and joy the Christmas time can bring." As a fan of Hymns of Nineveh's previous work and a longtime Grinch, I can dig it.
