Current 93 / Inmost Light

Durtro / Jnana

BACK IN STOCK!!! Originally issued in 1995 & ‘96, this set, which announced itself as being “Hallucinatory Patripassianist Song” reissues in their entirety the mini-albums Where The Long Shadows Fall and The Stars Are Marching Sadly Home, as well as the full length All The Pretty Little Horses. Features guest appearances from COIL’s JOHN BALANCE and NICK CAVE. Surrealistic tape manipulations transform what would be reasonably normal folk guitar stylings into strangely queasy pitch-shifted nightmares. Texts are clearly enunciated (and reproduced in the accompanying booklet) and the album is beautifully structured to build to a shattering climax with the terrifying disembodied voices of “Twilight Twilight Nihil Nihil” and “The Inmost Light,” after which Nick Cave’s reprise of the title track, which might seem maudlin out of context, makes perfect sense. Double LP, gatefold vinyl. Edition of 1,000.
