Coil - Black Antlers - Clear Vinyl Record 2LP

In the late 1990s, Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson and his partner in life and creative ventures, Jhonn Balance, made the exciting move from London to the charming rural town of Weston-super-Mare. This shift opened the door to a vibrant environment for all things "musick, musick, musick!", welcoming an ever-changing lineup of new members, including the talented Thighpaulsandra. During this enriching period, Coil's discography nearly doubled, and it was during this time that Thighpaulsandra simply asked: why doesn't Coil play live? After a 16-year wait and thanks to the swift advancement of technology like MacBooks, DAWs, VSTs, and plugins, Coil finally had the opportunity to bring their music to the stage, just as they had always envisioned. Performing live allowed them to embrace the exhilarating risks and creative freedoms of real-time sonic manipulation. As Sleazy beautifully put it: "Reshap(ing) the show minute by minute... the direction is very spontaneous, not so much in the way of like jazz improvisation but in a kind stream of consciousness… Thighpaulsandra brought us his wisdom, and he was able to convince us we could do it." When they performed live, Coil felt "like a snake shedding its skin," evolving into something "completely different" every six months. In preparation for 2004’s "Even an Evil Fatigue" live series, Coil began crafting their next iconic masterpiece, Black Antlers
