This compilation of 15 European and American artists pays tribute to David Tibet's Current 93 which along with stablemates Death in June and Sol Invictus, founded apocalyptic folk as we know it. This tribute is acknowledged by Tibet himself who contributed to the CD artwork by providing an image of Ethereal City which is taken from his personal collection of paintings by the Outsider artist, Louis Wain. The contributions to this tribute are not attempts to imitate but to cover C93 in the respective styles of the various artists. But such is the material that the spirit of Current inevitably shines through.

WIERZBA - '1999 Earth Contamination' CD (Fluttering Dragon)
Wierzba was created in 1994 in the grey area of the post-communist industrialized and polluted land of Poland. The music of Wierzba combines dark monotonous sounds of the industrialized world with evil thoughts and desires. The decadent mood is intensified by the melodies taken from the very bottom of despair and sadness. Not only has Wierzba sunk deeply into the gloomy reality but it foresees the future as well: the inevitable decay and apocalypse of planet Earth. Powerful cold, dark ambient melodies lead the listener to create his own vision of the apocalypse.
