Glad someone mentioned good ol Coil. An exceptionally talented band that hardly gets much recognition these days.

Cheers

I tried to start a COIL forum on here but the response was... limited at best. Bless you for keeping the torch burning.

Anyone else on here manage to get a copy of:

The Remote Viewer
5th Seasonal single

I'd like to see what other people think of these releases.

Any further news on their next 10" "The Restitution of Decayed Intelligence"?

not too many coil fans here....
i know it sucks.
they are god father of taking electronic technology to next level.

COIL are quite possibly the last truly original artist stalking the planet. I hope they get their royalties from Stevo one of these years...

A compilation CD entitled MUTEK 03 has just been released featuring tracks by 15 of the artists appearing at this year's MUTEK fesitval. Coil is one of the contributors with a new track entitled "The Test". The disc can be purchased online via ElectroCD.com.

May 28th, 2003
Coil's official mail order website, Threshold House, has been updated with the news that Jhon Balance will not be appearing at the upcoming live performances in Montreal (May 29th), Porto (June 21st) and Birmingham (July 12th). The shows will instead "feature a 'leaner' and largely instrumental line up with Peter Christopherson & Thighpaulsandra performing a more intimate set than the full-on 6 piece Coil performances of last year."
Following these three festival appearances, Coil have no further live dates planned, and it is unlikely that they will perform live again until Summer, 2004 at the earliest.

if anyone goes to these 3 shows, please post a review here. thanks in advance.

they released a three track CD of "gentle drone" material. The disc was packaged in a black clamshell case with no information except for the words "COIL ANS" printed on the disc. It is most likely that this material was recorded using the ANS Synthesizer
http://www.martin.homepage.ru/ans.htm a one-of-a-kind photoelectronic instrument at Moscow State University, during COIL's visit to Moscow last fall.

More serious was the the loss of a green marbleized A4 notebook containing 5 years worth of notes towards Coil projects, somehow lost between Marylebone Road and Old Street tube station - the result of a rohypnoll assisted robbery. A substantial reward has been offered for the recovery of the book.
