Has anyone ever heard of Coil? John Balance, the tongue of the group, mentioned something about releasing some of RDJ's works on their Threshold House label. Does anyone know anything about this?
Their album 'Musick to Play in the Dark Vol.II' is beautiful. I've never heard anything like it. Apparently Thighpaulsandra(synthesizer wizard and long-time Julian Cope contributer)is an occasional member..

I also heard one of the Autechre boys talking about how Coil's music used to drive them mad when they were tikes and that they were planning on remixing some of their work in the near future..

They were a big influence on Michael and Marcus of Boards of Canada too.
Which records do you have?

If you like Coil's ambient stuff check out "the sea priestess" from "astral disaster". It's sooo beautiful...

I really dig coil. Thighpaulsandra is no longer with them though. Record lable stuff got in the way and I think he's back as a touring member of Spiritualized. Autechre are remixing a track on an upcoming Coil box set I believe. I only have 'Worship the Glitch' and 'Musik to Play in the Dark I & II' but I would like more. Unfortunatly they are quite expensive and I am a cheap bastard.

The most cost efficient place I've found to order their music via the internet is http://www.strangefortune.com
Really good prices and cheap shipping. -Thighpaulsandra is still with them, he's just on leave touring with Spiritualized so he can pay his heating bill. Have you heard his 'I, Thighpaulsandra' album? Probably my favorite record of last year.
I also recommend you get Time Machines and Black Light District by Coil.

I agree, Astral Disaster is another one you should pick up. I especially like the album artwork...I think it was done by Steven Stapleton aka the notorious Nurse With Wound.

I'm glad to hear Thighpaulsandra is still with coil. He is one of my favourite artists right now. I hope I'll be seeing him up close and personal when Spiritualized comes to town in a month or so.

I've already obtained a recording of that performance but thanks just the same.
