Current 93

Current 93

Current 93 is Hallucinatory Cartoonist and Apocalyptic Squatter David Tibet, who has been the only constant in the group, though Steven Stapleton (of Nurse With Wound) has appeared on nearly every Current 93 release. Much of Current 93's early work was similar to late 1970s and early 1980s industrial music: abrasive tape loops, droning synthesizer noises and Tibet's distorted, ranting vocals. Later works found Tibet mostly casting off such trappings in favor of a more organic sound, labeled by some as "apocalyptic folk" music, occasionally featuring his sinister nursery rhyme-influenced singing and primarily acoustic folk-styled music. The later to present-day period of Current 93's recordings increasingly reflect Tibet's interest in Christian mysticism.
