The visionary experimental outfit Coil unveils Live One, a powerful live recording that captures the band’s uncompromising intensity and transformative soundscapes in full force. Known for defying the limits of genre and pushing the boundaries of electronic music, Coil’s live performances have long been regarded as rare, otherworldly events. Live One preserves that experience, offering listeners a unique glimpse into the band’s most visceral and hypnotic moments on stage.
Performed and recorded during their celebrated live appearances at the turn of the millennium, Live One showcases Coil at their most luminous and daring. The album flows through waves of ritualistic rhythm, haunting atmospheres, and a raw energy that bridges the ceremonial and the confrontational.
With John Balance’s unmistakable voice and presence guiding the performance, alongside Peter Christopherson’s meticulous sonic vision, every track resonates with a sense of danger, beauty, and transcendence. Live One stands not only as a document of Coil’s evolving artistry but as a testament to their lasting influence on experimental, industrial, and electronic music as a whole.
