CD Reviews

Current 93's best live album

08/16/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Of all Current 93's output over the past few years, this has by far been my favorite. Though merely live versions of a handful of tracks from Soft Black Stars, this album achieves a melancholic beauty missed by the former. Songs like "Anti-Christ and Barcodes" as well as "The Signs in the Stars" possess an honesty and haunting spatial resonance here totally lacking in their original form. Tibet sounds as if he's struggling not to sob on stage."Gothic Love Song," the stand-out track from Soft Black Stars disappoints here, largely because it sounds exactly like the original (save for Antony's annoying and barely audible background vocals).If you're new to Current 93 this isn't a bad place to start. Current 93 fans, on the other hand, really can't miss this."
