Bar Maldoror
* 500 numbered copies on silver + color vinyl * The long-running and infamous project known as Nurse With Wound, essentially Steven Stapleton joined by a rotating cast of characters as Annie Anxiety, Chris Wallis, David Tibet, Diana Rogerson, John Balance (of Coil fame) — mixes the overly serious chin-scratching of the contemporary avant-garde with a healthy dose of absurdist humour and wit.

Deep Red. A Tribute To The Cinema Of Dario Argento
*200 copies limited edition.* Dario Argento was born in Rome, Italy, on September 7, 1940. Before becoming a screenwriter and later a director, he was a film critic.

Initially associated with giallo, the pulpy Italian subgenre he helped formalize and woul…

Mick Harris on Lull: "I finally heard the way of recording, making profound sounds. Lull is purely something I c…
Love's Secret Domain
*2022 gold vinyl repress with insert. 100 copies limited edition* In 1991 Coil released the third of their early classic full-length albums "Love's Secret Domain", seemingly casting aside the gloom and funereal beauty of its predecessors in favour of a painstakingly multi-layered hallucinogenic electronic beast, which unlike some of their fellow ex-industrial contemporaries' releases of the time wasn't an attempt at easy accessibility or (the-gods-forbid) danceability, but a vibrating psychedeli…
Interdimensional
