Coil / Nine Inch Nails - Recoiled

Released in 2014 via Cold Spring, Recoiled is a fascinating archival document that unearths the collaborative spirit between Nine Inch Nails and the legendary experimental duo Coil (John Balance and Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson). Far more than just a collection of leftovers, this EP features unreleased versions and radical reconstructions of tracks from the Fixed, Closer to God, and Further Down the Spiral sessions. It is the sound of Trent Reznor’s meticulous studio work being dismantled and rebuilt through Coil’s occult, avant-garde lens.

This limited edition white vinyl pressing is a "must-have" for collectors of both acts. The stark, clinical look of the white wax perfectly mirrors the "deconstructed" nature of the music. From the haunting, stripped-back take on "Gave Up" to the "slow-burn" ritualistic energy of the "Closer" remixes, Recoiled highlights a period when the bridge between the mainstream industrial world and the deep underground was at its most experimental.
