What their label says...

The first of a comprehensive reissue series of the Durtro and United Dairies catalogue, concentrating almost exclusively on the work of the legendary English bands Current 93 and Nurse With Wound.
‘Halo’ is a live album performed by the expanded line-up of Current 93, featuring David Tibet - vocals, Michael Cashmore - guitar and bass, Maja Elliott - piano, Joe Budenholzer - guitar, Graham Jeffery - piano, Joolie Wood - violin, whistle and recorder, John Contreras - cello, Karl Blake - voice and Finn Sands voice.
Recorded at their sold-out concert at the Queen Elizabeth Hall at London’s South Bank Center on 9th October, 2003; it is David Tibet’s personal favourite of all the live Current 93 albums.
This 67-minute-long album is packaged in a beautiful full-colour gatefold digipak. It was originally released by World Serpent in an edition of 1,000 which quickly sold out. Halo is now in it’s second pressing, making it one of the rarer of the recent Current 93 albums.
