Combining traditional 'power trio' and electronic instrumentation, the group explores and deconstructs the elements of space rock, creating abstract ambient washes of fragmented rock songs.

"Communion" by Current is a trip through outer space, a journey measured in beats and tones. Sparkling sounds and alien rhythms abound throughout the disc, thick and enveloping, surrounding the listener like space itself while the bass forms a gravitational link between songs. Chilled and groovy, "Communion" is perfectly matched for those late night flights trhough the heavens.
