Cold Spring are proud to announce the long-awaited reissue of Coil’s 1992 album, presented on CD and, for the first time, on vinyl.

“Stolen & Contaminated Songs” was recorded and produced by Coil in 1992. It is comprised of over 60 minutes of outtakes and unreleased songs, evolved during the recording sessions for their prior album, “Love’s Secret Domain”. A wealth of superb material showcasing the diversity of Coil: dark, violent, vivid and fractured, yet cohesive and beautiful. Combined with the latest studio technology and Coil’s ever-evolving production skills, “S&C Songs” walks a fine line between tradition and innovation, continually creating semi-abstract soundscapes with a cinematic quality.

CD in digipak. 

REVIEWS:

"... what deliciously seedy and gorgeous music we have here for us to enjoy... SCS not only stands up to its sister album [Love's Secret Domain] but for this writer surpasses it in every way... this reissue sounds fantastic and musically it is for this writer anyway one of Coil’s finest collection of songs…even their outtakes were better than most bands final releases…god they were good." [ Louder Than War ]

"The album saw Balance and Sleazy embrace sampling, oh, and huge quantities of drrugs. With areas of the sudio out of bounds due to hallucinations of, among other things, "larval shells rearing up like huge mummies", Sleazy described the sessions as "pretty mad"... It's a great record and this accompanying set is essential. The sinister title track, here in an alternate version, is typical of Coil's greatness." [ Electronic Sound ]
