Album Notes & Community Reviews

On 'Thunder Perfect Mind', David Tibet fully realizes Current 93's signature apocalyptic neofolk aesthetic. Featuring delicate acoustic guitars and haunting string arrangements, the album serves as a deeply poetic, cryptic, and melancholic exploration of medieval spirituality and occult religious themes.
