Additional notes
Current 93 is a group lead by David Tibet, with an ever changing line up of musicians, Steven Stapleton being the more permanent member of group appearing on several releases.
Current 93 began in 1982, releasing a ritualistic single in 1984 called LAShTAL. The project went on to release several LPs of noisy soundscapes up through 1986. At that point, they turned to a more "apocalyptic folk" sound, with acoustic guitars and atonal vocals; yet they constantly evolve a new style with each record.
