The price of being unique. Coil are physically no longer but should we ignore the major cosmic reflections emanating from their timeless work? Seldom has a musical group led us as close to illumination as Coil have. Respect and Remembrance.
Not necessarily, alcohol in many ways is the most destructive of all drugs. The vast majority of other substances they experimented with are actual experiences that you only need to have a handful of times. I don't believe they ever got into heavier substances like heroin, or crack.
Sophia Marie You make a good point, and that's the insane part, that alcohol is the legal one out of all these substances. Alcoholism and alcohol related deaths seem like a necessary evil in society. I get sad though, thinking about John. I think if he had just handled whatever issues he had in his life, through therapy or something else (maybe he tried, what do I know), he most likely would be alive today. All those drugs (among which I include alcohol, of course) don't get you anywhere in that regard. I've had periods of complete madness, because of drugs. My father drank himself to death. Now I'm stone cold sober, and I've never felt better. I still feel like shit on a daily basis, but I'm working on it.
So sad i will never get to see John Balance/Coil live now. Well at least i'll get to see Kate Bush my other favorite this September. This footage is amazing. thank you so much for sharing. RIP John your music and influence will live on forever.
Νανούρισμα για τον Jhonn Balance (1962-2004) Αναρρόφηση. Θείο Λεπιδόπτερο. Νεραϊδόσκονη στον λαιμό σου στάθηκε. Το λαμπρό σου μυαλό τα φτερά σου έλιωσε. Ίκαρε, κόκκινη εσύ βασίλισσα, χαριτωμένη η πτώση σου. Και κάποιο από αυτά τα δειλινά. Παράξενα έντομα θα εκκολαφθούν Και στους γενέθλιους βάλτους Θα ψάχνουν, Για φαιά ουσία. Μέσα σε μηνίγγια να βουτήξουν Την παράταιρη φύση τους. Ποιος θα τα ξορκίσει; Καστανόξανθε Πρίγκιπα. Όπως εσύ στα άνθη ξαπόστασες.
@@2f126 he was a massive alcoholic, unfortunately, he died by falling off a balcony, awesome band, both main members dead now, both geniuses and will be missed.
@@2f126 Jhonn was known for dealing with substance abuse in his last years. If you analyse lyrics in The Ape of Naples you will find themes about death, sustance abuse and self harm.
👀
Balance looks rather unbalanced here. He was a creative force that is greatly missed. :(
😍😍😍
Beautiful creations for mankind
fuoriclasse assoluti,non moriranno mai...........
10:35 i wish i knew wtf they were talking about
Yes.

this is a wonderful statement 💚🖤
🖤🖤🖤
Jhonn has just the most wonderful voice.
UA-cam's algorithms are working out for me. Another brilliant piece of Coil history unearthed.
was fowl play considered in his death?
Nope. Just a ironically named drunk.
the notes jhonn can hit. fuck. touch your soul
best group I have never heard
LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Oh, Jhonn... why must you be gay, and dead..
I should have saw them in NYC in 2002.
A man who had taken excessive amounts of everything imaginable has his life end because of alcohol. It's kind of insane isn't it?

Jhon's playing an egg slicer at around 9:30, only Coil would come up with using an egg slicer, musical mvguyvers.
R I P I will play and love your music for ever
yes
But then he seems so coherent at the 'lyric discussion' around 8:50.
Wow. I had no idea how far away Jhonn had become. He appears to be positively haunted.
what had happened to him?
@@2f126 guy fell off a balcony I believe

Lost his... balance.
Is that Thighpaulsandra?

HAIL ERIS
coil + hurdy-gurdy!
An egg slicer. Now that's fuckin brilliant. Most briliant artists ever
He was going through alcohol problems at that time.

@forbes923 It is called 'The Gimp (Sometimes)' from 'Black Antlers.'
