CURRENT 93

With a glut of industrial-pop hybrids on the market in the 1980s and 90s, several bands stayed true to the experimental nature of early industrial music. The Psychic TV axis alone spawned many creative artists, including Current 93 s David Tibet, who blends Gothic chanting and haunting atmospherics with industrial noisescapes courtesy of tape loops and synthesizers. Though Tibet doesn t quite have bandmates, he frequently works with a core of collaborators including ex-Psychic TV compatriot John Balance more famous for his work with Peter Christopherson in Coil Fritz Haaman, formerly of 23 Skidoo like PTV an offshoot of the most influential of the early industrial acts, Throbbing Gristle Steven Stapleton of Nurse with Wound fame

1992 s THUNDER PERFECT MIND sees Current 93 leader David Tibet turning toward a self-styled strain of pagan-Christian gnosticism the title is from a Gnostic poem , and a fascination with the folk traditions of the British Isles. Every armchair theologist must have her exegesis, and THUNDER PERFECT MIND is the fundamental volume of Current 93 s curious catechism. Tibet dissects imagery from Judeo-Christian, occult, Druid, and Eastern dogma, framed by a fragile skein of 12-string guitars, hand drums, harp, strings, and woodwinds. His distinctively intoned song-poems are a complex framework for C93 s Byzantine iconography. Rose McDowall s wraithlike backing vocals, the presence of Death In June s dour Douglas P., and such apocalyptic pronouncements as Rosy Star Tears from Heaven, All the Stars are Dead Now, and Hitler as Kalki SDM , raise the requisite goosebumps. THUNDER PERFECT MIND is singular, magical, and magnificent. It s where The Incredible String Band s bucolic whimsy meets forgotten apocryphal lore and the insinuating sonic sorcery of David Tibet s co-conspirator, Nurse With Wound s Steven Stapleton...
