C93's first, and one of the scariest!
Sep 4 2000
By T. Allen
- Published on Amazon.com
This is Current 93's first full length album re-issued on CD with some live tracks, 2 bonuses from a give-away that came with the first 1000 of the original and 2 songs from their first single. This one's a whopper. Intense, atomospheric, noisy, apocalyptic. Think chanting, loops slowing down and speeding up, demented opera samples, eschatology, Hell. There's still a little bit of Crowley on this one. If you know C93 from their folky, later material, this one may surprise you. Definitely my favorite from their early, noisy soundscape years. If you're looking for the end of the world, here's your soundtrack.

One Of The Best
Nov 7 2003
By Maldoror
- Published on Amazon.com
This is by far one of the best Current 93 albums ever, in my opinion. I was drawn to them in their Maldoror days by their noisy soundscapes and tracks that took up almost a whole album side, and this one is a classic. Deep, droning, humming thrumming music like the stirrings of an ancient creature, singing monks, dark rumblings, and of course Tibet's distinct wailing. Some tracks are more mournful and dreamlike, some are dark and brooding, and yet others sound like Orc music. Current 93's more recent works seemed to have pulled away from this style a lot, and while anything they do will always be good IMHO, I think this time period was the greatest for them. If you find that you enjoy this album, I highly recommend you find also "Dogs Blood Order", "Live at Bar Maldoror", and "In A Foreign Town, In A Foreign Land", you will not be disappointed.

Maldoror is alive and well....
Nov 27 2003
By Danny Malboeuf
- Published on Amazon.com
This is in many ways the "ultimate" Current 93 release.The two extended tracks take you into pleasantly painful vistas peopled by elements that might in themselves be considered discordant,but in this context they are woven into dark and sparkling symphonies.Vague chanting,rumbling skies...even an excerpt from the Agnus Dei movement of Faure's requiem mass are drawn together to form a compelling whole.This is Current 93 at their most intense.The extra tracks consist of singles{!?}and rarities,and are a welcome addition to the package.
