Classify my favorite Gnostic, and the driving force behind Current 93, the first real Neofolk group: David Tibet.

The ever elusive profile is prominent around 00:14 in this behind the scenes video:

I had the fortune of seeing him live! :) He looks like an alpinized anglosaxon (SNPA) to me :)

I'm going to take a stab at this.... Alpinized Nord, which I guess is Borreby.

The high forehead is why I presume this.

A Borreby is more like an Alpinized Faelid. Tibet is, IMO, fr too gracile to be paired off with Gerald Ford:

The high forehead does indicate a CM component though.

WOW, I never thought I would hear Current 93 or Death in June mentioned on this forum. I was not a big fan, though I do have the Current 93 discography in MP3, but being the old fart that I am, a lot of my friends that I grew up with were fans.

I'm constantly being amazed by this forum. Pleasantly amazed. :thumbs up
