:''For the companion album by Nurse With Wound, see Thunder Perfect Mind (Nurse With Wound album).'' ''Thunder Perfect Mind'' is an album by the English group Current 93. It contains two tracks based on the Gnostic poem ''The Thunder, Perfect Mind'', which also gave the album its name. ''Thunder Perfect Mind'' has a companion album by the same name recorded by Nurse With Wound, released at the same time, though the two albums have little in common with each other musically. The album is one of David Tibet's more personal records, with several songs dedicated to friends, colleagues and people he had met. "All The Stars Are Dead Now" consists of a startling prophecy given to Tibet one night by the Planh of William Blake, while the epic "Hitler As Kalki (SDM)" is dedicated to "my father, who fought Hitler." The liner notes indicate that some believed Hitler was Kalki, the tenth and final incarnation of Vishnu, who would destroy the cosmos upon a white horse at the end of each world cycle. Original pressings contained a portrait of David Tibet's face, while later pressings contained a drawing of a startled cat drawn by Louis Wain. On its 2003 re-release, the cover sported Tibet's face again, though a second re-issue a year later on Durtro Jnana Records (due to World Serpent's sudden disappearance) featured a beige-toned pattern across the portrait. These later pressings included a bonus disc titled ''The Thunder, Perfect Mind'' which contained outtakes and alternate mixes of songs, as well as five live tracks recorded in Paris on December 15, 1990. All of the studio tracks save "Red House" and an acoustic version of "Anyway, People Die" had previously appeared on ''Emblems: The Menstrual Years''. ==Track listing== All songs written by Current 93, except "When The May Rain Comes" (cover of the song "May Rain" by German experimental band Sand). # "A Beginning" – 0:44 # "The Descent of Long Satan and Babylon" – 3:00 # "A Sadness Song" – 4:14 # "A Song for Douglas After He's Dead" – 4:58 # "In the Heart of the Wood and What I Found There" – 2:50 # "Mary Waits in Silence" – 2:56 # "A Silence Song" – 5:27 # "A Lament for My Suzanne" – 4:20 # "Riverdeadbank" – 3:46 # "All the Stars Are Dead Now" – 9:06 # "Rosy Star Tears from Heaven" – 3:05 # "When the May Rain Comes" – 3:24 # "Thunder Perfect Mind I" – 5:05 # "Thunder Perfect Mind II" – 2:21 # "Hitler As Kalki (SDM)" – 16:28 # "A Sad Sadness Song" – 4:40 # "An Ending" – 2:21 — ''originally a hidden track'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thunder Perfect Mind (Current 93 album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
