| | Coil Musick To Play In The Dark 2 CD Coil Discography of CDs
Coil mix the textures of electronica and industrial to intriguing ends, and MUSIC TO PLAY IN THE DARK 2 features "Something" and "Paranoid Inlay," among other tracks.
Two types of records usually have the highest potential for embarrassment: "comedy" records and "scary" records. Unlike an awful pub rock mistake or a tuneless ambient workout, there seems to be nothing more obnoxious than listening to a record that tries -- and fails -- to be either funny or frightening. Coil's Musick to Play in the Dark 2 takes the latter stab into forbidding, blood-velvet territory and consistently bungles it up. "Ether" ends with a magnificently processed, sincerely unsettling chant, but it takes almost 11 minutes of "cats + piano" melodies to get there. Elsewhere, opener "Something" takes a deeply effective, goth Gaia heartbeat and polishes it with cartoonish "menacing" swooshes and sirens that probably could be found on a two-buck "Boo! Halloween Hits!" supermarket CD. The sincerity of Coil should not be undervalued -- as work here and in the past can easily attest to -- it's the failure to harmonize it with a minimalist instinct that gets in the way. Because no matter how much somebody tries to tell you a joke or scare you, only the gifted can do it without sounding like a moron. ~ Dean Carlson

 $9.55   
Though it wasn't until 1981 that they finally got around to splitting, 1979's D.O.A. was subtitled "The Third and Final Annual Report," and in many ways, it does sound like a summation of everything Throbbing Gristle accomplished in their years together. It's got humor (their 1978 underground hit "United" is included, albeit in fast-forward, ...

| | Recoil Bloodline CD (1992)
Musick To Play In The Dark 2 music CDs
$11.85
With Violator the smash hit it was, and Depeche Mode coming off a huge burst in popularity and attention, Alan Wilder's solo project was never in a better position to get wider notice for itself in turn. Bloodline didn't produce an "Enjoy the Silence," but in many ways, this was and remains Wilder's most distinct Recoil album: a sharp combination of his ear for arrangements and notable guest singer turns. Wilder's production skills became even more influential with time. Electro-clash was a decade off, but Nine Inch Nails' own breakthrough was just around the corner, and the combination of pulsing energy and cold, brutal punch was perfectly evident throughout Bloodline. The two ...

Lucky Dog is a collection of Jimmys favorite songs he wrote or co-wrote over the last 15 years with the exception of a classic Grand Funk Railroad song that he feels was a landmark in his development as a songwriter. "People Let's Stop The War" emoted so much direct protest that there was no turning back to only the fun stuff. His version juxtiposes the speechlike lyrics with eastern flute riffs, funky acoustic guitars ...
