It hones an \"electro-erotics of sound,\" blending textural instrumental pieces with notable field recordings – including a drunken brass band captured in Mexico and a Thai boxing arena recorded by Sleazy. A key moment of serendipity is found in ‘Metal In The Head’, which features a malfunctioning Fairlight sampler randomly rearranging and distorting the music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRemastered under the guidance of original member Stephen Thrower, this new edition features restored artwork, previously unseen imagery and new sleeve notes, and marks the start of a new reissue series through The Grey Area of Mute.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEstablished in 1982 by Peter Christopherson (Sleazy) and John Balance, Coil began as an art and music project before expanding into a trio with Thrower in 1984.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir work remains a profoundly influential and enigmatic force within industrial and experimental music, fearlessly exploring themes of queerness, sex, drugs, magick and freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mute","offers":[{"title":"LP + Postcard","offer_id":51553079165206,"sku":"RMX-71092","price":28.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":51553079197974,"sku":"RMX-71093","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/coil.png?v=1783944345","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/coil-gold-is-the-metal-with-the-broadest-shoulders","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
