"Sing to God" is a double studio album by the English rock band Cardiacs. Released in 1996, it is the seventh studio album of the band. Noteworthy for its complex, layered sound and penchant for combining disparate musical styles, "Sing to God" represents Cardiacs' use of punk and progressive rock elements to great effect, making it one of their most definitive works.
Despite the band having a relatively low profile, this album is highly regarded among fans and critics alike for its daring originality and sonic depth. This is particularly attributable to lead singer and songwriter Tim Smith's distinctive vocal style and signature lyrical quirkiness.
The first disc of the album contains numerous songs that are now staples of Cardiacs' live sets, such as "Dog-Like Sparky," "Fiery Gun Hand," and "Dirty Boy". The second disc has an experimental bent, with longer compositions such as "Nurses Whispering Verses" and the 15-minute long "Foundling". This double album remarkably manages to balance the band's signature frenetic energy with some of their most melodic work to date.
