Influences: Traversing the fecund grounds of psychotropics, homosexuality, the Ordo Templi Orientis, and Chaos Magick, Coil is one of the few post-industrial bands that can still truly be considered pioneers. Drawing on samples, cut-ups, ambient growling, and house rhythms, Coil continually redefines itself.
Sounds Like: "I'm obsessed with the idea of turning base matter into gold, transmuting base materials, i.e. raw sound, into something else."
