Our Take

COIL's "Musick To Play In The Dark" is a sonic adventure through the depths of avant-garde experimentation. With their distinctive blend of electronic, industrial, and goth influences, this album is a journey into the twisted, pulsating heart of the underground music scene.

From the haunting whispers of "Are You Shivering?" to the eerie, otherworldly sounds of "Red Birds Will Fly Out of the East and Destroy Paris in a Night," COIL takes listeners on a mind-bending trip through dark, ethereal landscapes. The hypnotic rhythms and atmospheric textures create a sense of unease and wonder, like wandering through a haunted house filled with ghostly apparitions.

Tracks like "Strange Birds" and "Broccoli" showcase COIL's ability to seamlessly blend dark, brooding melodies with pulsating beats and distorted vocals. The result is a sonic tapestry that is both beautiful and unsettling, a nightmarish dreamscape that is as haunting as it is captivating.

With "Musick To Play In The Dark," COIL have crafted a truly unique and immersive listening experience that will leave you questioning reality and your own sanity. It's an album that defies categorization, a bold and uncompromising statement from a band that has never been afraid to push the boundaries of what is considered "normal."

In conclusion, if you're looking for music that will transport you to another realm, look no further than COIL's "Musick To Play In The Dark." It's a mesmerizing, unsettling, and utterly captivating journey that will leave you spellbound from start to finish.
