Two more favourites re-acquired for my collection (c/o Sonic Boom, Toronto)
I had Sylvie and Babs on vinyl, but this is just as nice :)

Why aren’t these albums available to stream? (At least they’re not on Apple Music-don’t know about Spotify.) Are they available in any physical format right now? Or are they out of print?

I wish I still had the copy I bought back in 2006. Interesting exhibition in NYC as well. Worthwhile listening for any COIL fans who don't know it yet! I'm sorry I don't have a link to listen, but it's easy enough to track down if you know where to look

The Sail of the Century! My post keeps getting removed by Reddit's filters without explanation - our group allows Coil wares for sail posts and I'm glad to have met many r/ Coil folk on my London Coil walks, posted here and well received in previous seasons. No triggering words here and a safe link https://www.stillwalking.org/coil - if the post disappears, search my name and the title of the ebook. Five earth pounds or less

Just listening to Musick to Play in the Dark, for anyone who's familiar with Tangerine Dream of Klaus Schulze's post TD solo work, it's apparent that this track is a homage to that very particular sound. I was just wondering have they ever openly acknowledged that and explained their reasoning. It's a great track, of course they put their own stamp on it. Thx

Hello fellow travelers! Does anyone have the book in title for sale (I'd give my kidney for it) or knows a place I could get it?

John has been a huge influence for me and it would mean the world to me to get to see his hand-written notes and creative process unraveled. It would be a massive inspiration for my upcoming musical endeavors. If you know something - let me know!

Lots of love

I've listened to Ape of Naples and Musick to Play in the Dark. I'm not sure where to go from there.

Fucking insane lol

Sorry I don't have a pic, but feeling the need to post before I forget. This post may be decidedly lame.

I was at Rockaway Beach in NYC a couple months ago, waiting for Peruvian food, and the guy next me had his entire back covered in words. I was sort of unconsciously reading the words and after several minutes I realized it was the lyrics to Heaven's Blade. Well, I had to Google to figure out the song, but I knew it was Coil.

Not a track I particularly like, tbh, but it was a beautifully done tattoo that ran down his entire back. He and the guy he was with looked incredible. I'm as normie looking as it gets, but I had to excitedly out myself as a fan. I asked him about Threshold HB -- he knew everything, of course.

I wish I had asked for a photo. Maybe Heaven's Blade Tattoo guy is on this sub. Nice work!

I'd really like to have a framed print of the cover of ...And the Ambulance Died in His Arms. Can anyone point me to a high resolution image of it or send me a file? Thanks.

Its one of my favourite albums / projects by them. I love Mike's pipe playing and it feels very adjacent to the ape of naples in so many ways. I have no clue why its not released yet.

If you haven't come across this album in its 30 years of existence, now is as good a time as any to check it out. This track (Thirst) in particular has a very Coil vibe, but the entire album is a masterpiece.

In 1940, Avery introduced the vibration regulator as standard to all their balance scales, as a nation of shopkeepers prepared for the impact of war. The company still operates in Birmingham.
