Spacepig Pig | 1473 comments I am guessing this might be a bit of a new name for some of you, if so, buckle up, you are in for one hell of a ride.

British experimental band Current 93 have done collaborations with just about every underground band you can think of, i addition to their own releases, and have a discography to match, so there shouldn't be any problems finding something to nom.

As ever, noms in by 10pm on Sunday evening, post a link to your nom, and check back after posting to avoid any clashes.

Weekend, here I come......

Tim Franklin | 10953 comments Just an FYI; lots of the top YouTube links are for complete albums, so possibly worthwhile and more convenient to initially check out individual tracks from those releases on the band's bandcamp - https://current931.bandcamp.com - prior to looking for it on YT.

Spacepig Pig | 1473 comments Hmmmmm, a bit of a disappointing turn out for this one I'm afraid. No one else prepared to step outside the comfort zone?

Six it is then, the 3 point scoring system once again so we can each vote for half the songs.

As usual, voting closes at 10 pm on Thursday evening, no late votes counted.

Playlist is here:

And the noms:

Bright Dead Star
As Real As Rainbows
All The Pretty Little Horsies
A Song For Douglas After He's Dead
Falling
A Gothic Love Song

I picked up a ticket today to go to London for Rick Wakeman, Focus Barclay James Harvest and Dave Brock amongst others next June. Think I should invite Tech along?

Tim Franklin | 10953 comments A too short playlist, but an excellent one. For such an underground band, it continually amazes me how David Tibet is able to attract much bigger names to work with him; Nick Cave, Marc Almond, Björk, Anthony & the Johnsons, Rickie Lee Jones, Shirley Collins, to name a few.

Spacepig Pig | 1473 comments An incredible 9 voters for the 6 noms, awesome, maybe there's life in this old dog yet :-)

To the awards: Way out ahead, leaving the rest in the wake, Collette grabs the gold with Bright Dead Star. Somewhere over the horizon, All The Pretty Little Horsies gives the silver to Jemma, and we have a bronze for Tim with A Song For Douglas After He's Dead.

Not much in the way of comments again but due to the response, I am calling this one a success.

Sera69 | 1924 comments Strange one this, I love Nature and Organisation but found Current 93 a slog.
