Reviews
- A powerful and timeless classic still kept alive on Apple Music
One of my favorite releases. Maybe one day a reissue on a 12” with an etched b-side :)
Mine also has a 2-sided insert, "Coil Magazine". I didn't see that mentioned in description
I've always listened to this record at 33rpm, and it makes much more sense that way... especially side two, which sounds like the 'chipmunks remix' to me when I hear the CD/digital version. I often wonder if they actually meant for it to be played at different speeds – especially given the apparent playing speed on the tape version. Anyway, I recommend side two at 33rpm!- Edited 19 years agoCoil were approached to compose the soundtrack for Hellraiser, the result was apparently the only record Clive Barker had ever heard that he had to turn off because it 'made his bowels churn'. Jessie! Surely that would be the desired effect for a good Hellraiser soundtrack...
This is seriously good stuff, and the advert shorts on the B-side are paradoxical fun as well...
