Flowers With Black Background Biography
source (google.com.pk)David Tibet's project, Current 93, that often employed Nurse With Wound's Steve Stapleton, Coil's John Balance and/or 23 Skidoo's Fritz Haaman, centered on lugubrious ceremonies. Nature Unveiled (1984), the quintessence of Tibet's black masses, fusing mantra and Gregorian invocations, "unveiled" an ode to eternal suffering, a terrifying fresco of the Universal Judgement. His experiments on the human voice peaked with Dogs Blood Rising (1985), another sonic puzzle aimed at creating sinister atmospheres. Tibet's new course was announced by Imperium (1987), a suite of sepulchral elegies imbued of themes from medieval Christianity, set to the usual sound of hell, and embellished with instruments of the Renaissance. This bard of apocalyptic folk ballads that were not particularly musical until Island (1991) reversed direction and adopted slick and moving arrangements. David Tibet's pagan acoustic folk (reminiscent of the Incredible String Band), that hardly related to his beginnings, would become a genre in its own.
Bio
David Tibet was perhaps the macabre priest of the most imposing occult rituals in the history of rock music. A member of Nurse With Wound and of Psychic TV, in 1982 he founded Current 93, a collective inspired to guru Aleister Crowley's ceremonies of sexual magic ("The 93rd Current" is the definition of the Thelema cult). His main collaborators were Steve Stapleton ( Nurse With Wound , John Balance (Coil), and Fritz Haaman (23 Skidoo).
The suites compiled on the cassette Live At Bar Maldoror (Laylah, 1983) costitute an early sinister peak of Current 93's satanic saga. The 19-minute Alone Into The Alone keeps mixing and remixing infernal screaming and thundering electronics, distorted and reverbed through galactic space, occasionally reminiscent of Diamanda Galas and Karlheinz Stockhausen. The 23-minute Only Shadows Of Hooks is a darker and more static piece that pivots around a loop of monk-like vocals.
At the same time Current 93 released the EP Ekki Er Allt Gull and the cassette of his friend Tiny Tim. The EP Lashtal (Laylah, 1983), dedicated to the experiments that Crawley performed in Sicily, was a sort of ideological manifesto.
Nature Unveiled (Laylah, 1984) is the quintessential black mass of Current 93, an album that would remain a reference standard for the future of esoteric music. The 25-minute Ach Golgota opens with a monk choir and then rapidly dissolves into warped spacetime. Tibet coins an electronic music for otherworldly voices in which electronic dissonance fuses mantra-like, Gregorian-like and theatrical invocations. The 20-minute The Mystical Body Of Christ In Chorazaim opens with symphonic and choral music. Here the voices accumulate and prevail over the invocations, and the sense of the electronic poem is a macabre journey through a hell overflowing with damned souls, These two lengthy pieces constitute an infernal hymn to the Anti-Christ, to universal perdition and to a sacrilegeous apocalypse; an ode to eternal grief; a musical fresco of the universal judgment.
