I heard this song on a college radio station around 1993 (?) once and it's stuck in my head since then. I thought i heard John Lydon (i know, i know) singing the word "beau soleil" but wasn't sure what they were saying exactly. I thought i would never learn what it was and it would just be stuck in my head forever as a mystery until it occurred to me i might try searching for it. i searched "public image ltd beausoleil" and this came up immediately. i never thought i'd find it but wow. it's just as i remember it 30 years later. i'm a musician and composer so in a way that makes sense but it's rare i remember something so exactly without elements getting lost in translation over time, so to speak. Clearly the markings of a distinctive an interesting track, and clearly a great opportunity to learn more about Current 93!
Have had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with the band in nyc on halloween in 95' I believe. Through a acquaintance with Byod. We would sometimes drink and talk at the local dive. He told me it was on I bought tickets the next day. Great show, great people. This makes jokers like oh, say iron maiden or other so call "satanic" metal bands seem so Fake. This is the real deal. This is what i would imagine witches would play at gatherings . This would also probably be my favorite of their albums. there are so may though "they are all different always the same", to quote Peel, speaking on another band. Genius.

Kingofcake138 It usually are David Tibet’s visions or dreams or poetic expressions of the occult or spiritual I would say. Safe bet on current 93’s lyrics is that David Tibet sings of nothing else than death. Like Black ships in the sky. That entire album is based around a dream he had when he was 16. In that dream he saw black ships in the sky which were about to end the sky to prepare the earth for the apocalypse - death.
Freya Aswynn'vocals on this album is just like the mushroomed angry witch.
Fantastic pagan/occult folk freakadelia!

Just noticed now "Thine ANGER RISING like a SCORPION", can't be a coincidence. This is definitely a reference to Keneth Anger Cinema.
more than likely, the connexion exists since Beausoleil collaborated on the music for Anger's Lucifer Rising

Patrick Link I was at the show. Came from Canada. Great show.
a lot of messages to discover in these lyrics...
Beausoleil, reaping Nirvana in a desert land
Beausoleil, Thine anger rising like a scorpion
Beausoleil, dune buggy baby on a fairground slide
Beausoleil, the taste of honey and the swirl of flies
Beausoleil, jackbooting wide-eyed in the deepest pit
Beausoleil, looking at smiles and seeing only grins
Beausoleil, did dead gods smell when the dog's blood rose?
Beausoleil, now all Thine summers turn to menstrual winters
Beausoleil, kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill killy kill
Beausoleil, did dog's blood rise when the dead gods died?
Beausoleil, beautiful sunshine whose shadow hides
Beausoleil, white brothers planting burning crosses
Beausoleil, the sharpest flavour is the one that stains
Beausoleil, when dog's blood rises does it also dance?
Beausoleil, grey benediction of the final church
Beausoleil, it's just your habit of culling time
Beausoleil, a Death In June under a menstrual moon
Beausoleil, Scorpio rising but the Light Bearer falls
Beausoleil, the squeaky laughter of a giddy world
Beausoleil, still waving black flags from a stubble field
Beausoleil, a maltese cross is pierced by the blood of Christ
Beausoleil, hiding from cancer crabs and cracking jokes
Beausoleil, arson archbishop makes the deserts burn
Beausoleil, the dead are grateful ("all you need is love")
Beausoleil, fat Buddhas smiling with the widest grin
Beausoleil, candy floss surgeon with the golden hair
Beausoleil, a brand new process for a brand new age
Beausoleil, a black Messiah wearing buckskin boots
Beausoleil, assassin creepy-crawls through Hebron's Vale
Beausoleil, another martyr for the Noddy Apocalypse
Beausoleil, there's no business like the devil's business
Beausoleil, que será, será
Beausoleil, we want to sink into the deepest basin
Beausoleil, fils de perdition, Luciferens
Beausoleil, 7 and 7 is the hidden key
Beausoleil, a train to Clarkesville in the menstrual night
Beausoleil, Disneyland darkens with your Armageddon smile
Beausoleil, sangs rGyas chos dang tsogs kyi mChog rNams la
Beausoleil, you hide your candle on Golgotha's hill
Beausoleil, did dead dogs smell when the dog's blood rose?

Beausoleil, ?? wide-eyed in the deepest pit
Beausoleil, thine anchor rises like the scorpion
I agree! If you like dark music search "Writes in Black"
Wow
Seven & Seven is the hidden key.....
What does any of this mean 🤔 I'm a c93 fan and I feel like I'm missing something when I read their lyrics lol.

I totally dig the cover art!
KILLKILLKILLKILLKILL KILLY KILL!
One for the panic attack playlist
this song always reminded me of poison girls.
I love it too. It reminds me of the prince of anjuou in Elizabeth.
I could dance to this.
otacon451 I dance to it while i walk my dog and blow kisses at them lmao
The wheel or birth and death, the greatest joy and the deepest sorrow in delicate and intricate dance of the sublime and the awesome
for the longest time i couldn't figure out why they changed the name of the album, but i guess the creators of noddy had a problem with the orig title
No, goddy is just the newer version, different mix. Both good.
Woah.
Could be Boyd Rice, I seem to recall that he provided some spoken work intro's..
BOBBY
BEAUSOLEIL!!!!
as in Bobby Beausoleil ?
Never eat hoghead cheese in the hot 🌞 sun he said .
I always thought it's Tibet, not Freya. Sounds like Tibet here. Not unlike on Panzer Ruin.
E venga sempre il bel sole!
@RobinCarmody crooked crosses is a very good cd...
Who is the person quoted in the beginning?
good but i prefer the "crooked crosses" CD version can you upload pleasE??
As far as I know, it's Charles Manson, a sensible choice, as Beausoleil was himself a member of the Manson Family.
Fantástico!
Anybody know the chords for this?
This was fruit of "LSD on Rosie's roof" Tibet dixit on FACT. Oh, envy!
🐶:)
