'''Durtro''' was a British [[independent record label]] established by the British poet, singer, songwriter, and visual artist [[David Tibet]] in 1988, to publish his own work and that of fellow friends and musicians. It was replaced by one of Tibet's earlier labels, [[Coptic Cat]], in 2010.<ref>{{cite web|website=Coptic Cat |title=News |url=http://www.copticcat.com/news |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100127184242/http://www.copticcat.com/news |archivedate=27 January 2010 |df=dmy }}</ref>

The label has published nearly every release of Tibet's band [[Current 93]] since 1988. The records were distributed by [[World Serpent Distribution]], which handled the distribution of similar artists such as [[Coil (band)|Coil]], [[Death in June]], and [[Nurse With Wound]] until 2004, when World Serpent went bankrupt. After 2004, Durtro began releasing records under the name Durtro-Jnana, using Revolver USA and Cargo UK for distribution. As of 2010, all releases were released on Coptic Cat, which was supplanted by The Spheres label in 2013. {{citation needed|date=June 2014}}
