What their label says...

Soft Black Stars was released by Current 93 in 1998 on Durtro records and was written and adapted by Michael Cashmore, David Tibet and Maja Elliott with the exception of "Judas as Black Moth", "A Gothic Love Song" and "Whilst The Night Rejoices Profound And Still" the music for which was written by Michael Cashmore.

After several years out of print, we offer this expanded version with a rare track from the long-out-of-print vinyl and an unreleased version of ’Chewing On Shadows’. All housed in a high quality six panel digipack featuring David Tibet’s acclaimed artwork.

Almost all of the songs feature only David Tibet’s lyrics accompanied by minimalistic piano music: with the exception of "Judas as Black Moth" which is solo piano arrangement and "Chewing on Shadows" which consist of drones, piano, guitar and David Tibet’s singing.
