No Hiding From The Blackbird

Current 93 - Lucifer Over London (1994)

"LUCIFER OVER LONDON Parts I and II were inspired primarily by the short story "The Tower Of Moab" by Leslie Allin lewis (1899-1961), found in his superlative collection Tales Of The Grotesque, (Philip Alan, 1934; Ghost Story Press, 1994), although the ideas and images in the song are primarily my own. Vocals - David Michael Tibet by the Grace of God, and John Balance by the Grace of Austin Osman Spare and the Zos Kia Cultus. He thanks the gods that be he sees for Hinself as no othr seeth him. I thank God that I do. Guitars, bass, tambourine - Michael Cashmore by the Grace of Gnoddy. Second guitar - David Kenny by the Grace Of Energy. Black Sabbath - Nick Saloman by the Grace of the Bevis Frond. This song is dedicated to my dear friend Richard Dalby, who delves still.

SAD GO ROUND was written by Tony (T.S.) McPhee and appeared on his Groundhog's Solid album in 1974. Acoustic guitar and bass - Michael Cashmore. lead guitar and electric dulcimer - Nick Saloman. Vocals - David Michael. This song is dedicated to Rosemary Pardoe, the editor of Ghost and Scholars, my favourite magazine.

THE SEVEN SEALS ARE REVEALED AT THE END OF TIME AS SEVEN BOWS: THE BLOODBOW, THE PISSBOW, THE PAINBOW, THE FAMINEBOW, THE DEATHBOW, THE ANGERBOW AND THE HOHOHOBOW was written as a sequel to John Balance's introduction to Coil's Horse Rotovator album. Once I looked at the starres and they were all blood. This song is dedicated to the Soul of my beloved and most dear cat MAO who is dead by the Grace of Lordnothing and sleeps, I pray, in Louis Wain's paradise - bounce the ball still Maoma...I slept I dreamed I dreamt a dream and He still lived. Sometimes I sit alone in my room and stare out of the window beyond beyond and beyond; Christ dances around and around the sun, but it does not stop its circling and neither can I. Vocals - David Michael. Acoustic guitar, bass, melodica and glöckenspiel - Michael Cashmore. Sheep Ventilator Guitar and Secret Weapon"-- Steven Stapleton

Current 93 - Baalstorm, Sing Omega (coptic cat 2010)

Despite only one year lying between Baalstorm, Sing Omega and its predecessor Aleph at Hallucinatory Mountain, there’s a drastic difference in the sound of both albums. Aleph… was an angry record, centred on harsh guitar stabs and razorblade leads – a very deliberate texture overload accompanied by an appropriately aggressive vocal delivery from David Tibet. Baalstorm, Sing Omega is much more delicate in contrast, calling upon the flow and cascade of piano and cello instead, moving in wave-like surges and nudging along Tibet’s abstract ramblings, which babble breathlessly with an epiphanic urgency.

Rhythm and tempo are absent for a large portion of the record, with melody and harmony free to embark on a ceaseless drift and strings and electronics washing softly over eachother – an effect most beautifully present on “December 1971”, during which cello and guitar meander back and forth alongside a gorgeously fluid and furious David Tibet verse. He is on faultless form here, sounding helplessly at victim to the vivid dreams and prophecy that pour out of his mind.

Elsewhere are the sweet sounds of music box on “Passenger Aleph in Name” and the mournful progression of “The Nudes Lift Shields For War”, the latter of which is injected with an intensity of melancholy not seen since the harmonium-driven Sleep Has His House. It’s only during the last two tracks that the beauty of the album begins to give way; the 10-minute finale “I Dance Narcoleptic” spirals into carousel organs and the playful shouts of children, and personally I found it to be quite messy alongside the gorgeous choreography of the previous pieces.

But Baalstorm, Sing Omega is otherwise a beautiful work that, although seeming to drift aimlessly on first listen, reveals itself to be an intensely focused release when you step back and perceive the record as a whole. The aforementioned “December 1971” is already developing a spot high up on my list of favourite C93 tracks, and no doubt several more of these stunning compositions will quickly follow suit. *ATTN:Magazine

Current 93 - Some Soft Black Stars Seen Over London (2002)

The stripped-back Current 93 recorded this super minimal folk-inspired elegy live at the Bloomsbury Theatre in London, April 6 and 7, 2001. Some Soft Black Stars Seen Over Londonconsists of seven tracks composed of little more than David Tibet's spare and pained vocal,Maja Elliott's piano, and splashes of guitar from Michael Cashmore. The mood summons the spirit of the British folk revival's sadder moments in recalling Shirley Collins, Bert Jansch, and the like. The standout track, "The Signs in the Stars," is given two versions, and "A Gothic Love Song" is sufficient evidence that Tibet and company are not entirely humorless. "Whilst the Night Rejoices Profound and Still" alone makes the album worth owning, although the sound can be a little melodramatic at times. (allmusic)
