Coil ? look em up , www.google.com ASSHAT Christ NIN 11-17-2004, 05:11 PM Trent just answered a question about Coil last month too. 10-18: http://nin.com/access/10-18/questions7.gif RIP. You're still loud in my cd player, John/Jhonn. cyanotic 11-18-2004, 04:13 AM I find it hard to believe so many die hard NIN fans weren't aware of Coil prior to the sad news. The members of Coil did alot with NIN -- from remixes to videos. Peter Christopherson (one time member of both Coil and Throbbing Gristle) was the director for a huge bulk of NIN videos -- including the infamous Broken movie. Check out the "Precursor" mix of "Closer" -- y'know the one in the opening credits of the movie Seven? Thats a mix featuring members of Coil. blackrainbown 11-18-2004, 06:28 AM "...It's so nice to travelling but oH so much nicer to come home. No cannabis, no speed, no nothing.No alcohol, as a rule, but as people know I have had had problems with this in the past and keep away as much as I possibly can." -John Balance (http://www.brainwashed.com/coil/info/john.html) Sad news :[ j_absinthe 11-18-2004, 02:07 PM Trent couldn't handle the 'sinthe! Christ NIN 11-19-2004, 06:11 AM NIN fans that don't know Coil aren't NIN fans. I dont know what they are, but they're not really NIN fans. With all the things Trent's said about Coil, and Peter, and all of the remixes and videos.. Peter Christopherson directed the Broken movie for christ's sake.. crack_nation 11-19-2004, 07:05 AM Originally posted by Christ NIN NIN fans that don't know Coil aren't NIN fans.

Ashame Coil still never rose above being relatively obscure to most people. WolfEyes 06-22-2006, 04:02 PM They're only obscure to idiots who haven't taken the time looking for good music. Anyone who's worth their salt musically knows Coil. chinese-rocks 06-22-2006, 04:15 PM Dude wtf!? Why are you resurrecting old threads? You ain't even added anything decent to this thread anyway. Fucking cock-smoker. exfoliate 06-22-2006, 05:57 PM ooops, someone pulled a timtim. anyways, gonna use this as an opportunity to praise the greatest man who ever lived and died. coil is my favorite band ever. i cried all day the day he died. R.I.P jhonn, i miss you. WolfEyes 06-23-2006, 01:03 PM Smoke my cock it will get you high dude w/Joker sig.

With all the things Trent's said about Coil, and Peter, and all of the remixes and videos.. I knew about Coil and the fact that they did the 'Percursor' remix of "Closer"...but that's about it I'd guess I'm a NIN admirer then.... EDIT1: Didn't realize this was old. WolfEyes 06-23-2006, 02:30 PM I need to buy 'Horse Rotovator' exfoliate 06-23-2006, 08:45 PM Originally posted by WolfEyes I need to buy 'Horse Rotovator' ditto. i havent heard that for ages. GeminiBoy 06-24-2006, 02:33 PM wow thats too bad...he did some of his best work on Fixed and Further Down the Spiral. R.I.P. I shall play some NIN in effigy BarryC 06-24-2006, 08:01 PM Originally posted by Christ NIN NIN fans that don't know Coil aren't NIN fans. I dont know what they are, but they're not really NIN fans.

I own every Nine Inch Nails release except the VHS and I have no clue who or what this John/Coil thing is. I can safely say I'm a fan. |
