What can I say...? This is one of my all-time favorite Current 93 albums! It starts off with pure audial ecstasy and just keeps delivering.
Island was recorded between 1986 and 1991 and pairs Current 93 and Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson (HÖH) with various guest musicians/vocalists, the majority of whom are Iceland natives (could it get any better
??).
Here is a great review of the album if you cared to read more -
