Our Take

Ah, COIL, the British avant-garde duo known for their experimental sounds and boundary-pushing creativity. When they released Musick To Play In The Dark 2, we knew we were in for a wild ride. And let me tell you, this album does not disappoint.

From the first track, "The Lad With the Silver Button," COIL takes us on a journey through a sonic landscape that is equal parts mesmerizing and perplexing. The mesmerizing synths and ethereal vocals draw you in, while the perplexing rhythms keep you on your toes.

Tracks like "Dark River" and "Broccoli" showcase COIL's ability to blend genres effortlessly, creating a sound that is truly unique. And let's not forget "Chaostrophy," a 15-minute epic that is sure to leave you breathless.

But what truly sets Musick To Play In The Dark 2 apart is its ability to transport the listener to another world. As you listen to this album, you can't help but feel like you're floating in space, surrounded by shimmering stars and cosmic wonders.

So, dear readers, if you're looking for an album that will challenge your senses and expand your musical horizons, look no further than COIL's Musick To Play In The Dark 2. It's a wild, weird, and wonderful journey that you won't soon forget.

About the artist

Coil

COIL are the elusive enigmas of the electronic music world. Comprised of the late Jhonn Balance and Peter Christopherson, this experimental duo has been pushing boundaries and challenging listeners since the late 1980s. With a discography as diverse as it is extensive, COIL have managed to carve out a unique niche for themselves amongst the ever-evolving landscape of alternative music. Known for their eclectic soundscapes and hypnotic beats, COIL have consistently defied categorization and refused to be pigeonholed. Their music is a journey into the unknown, a sonic exploration of the darkest corners of the human psyche. With influences ranging from industrial to ambient, from techno to post-punk, COIL have managed to create a sound that is uniquely their own. But it's not just their music that sets COIL apart from the crowd. Their live shows are legendary, with fans traveling from far and wide to witness their mesmerizing performances. Jhonn Balance's charismatic stage presence and Peter Christopherson's technical wizardry combine to create a spectacle that must be seen to be believed. Despite their cult status and loyal fanbase, COIL have always remained somewhat of a mystery. Rarely granting interviews and shunning the limelight, they have managed to maintain an air of intrigue that is as captivating as their music. In a world obsessed with image and celebrity, COIL are a refreshing reminder that true artistry knows no boundaries.
