To me, fair friend, you never can be old For as you were when first your eye I eyed Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold Have from the forests shook three summers' pride Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turn'd In process of the seasons have I seen Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burn'd Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green Ah! yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand Steal from his figure and no pace perceived; So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand Hath motion and mine eye may be deceived: For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred; Ere you were born was beauty's summer dead
It's from Derek Jarman's The Angelic Conversation. Coil provided the soundtrack some of which was released as How To Destroy Angels. This however appeared on Scatology.
91 actually. i have a copy of it on cd i may be willing to sell. though the album cover has about a half an inch corner cut off of it (was like that when i bought it...) also may have a few scratches tho plays fine.... aye... also have number 1000 or so of black light district.... coil is so amazing, they got me through my late teens early 20s vagabonding..... hahahha
@xmfdibujito i totally understand your viewpoints. too much doubt and questioning things, can lead to a stressful and unfulfilled life. its easy to lose yourself when you cant distinguish right from wrong anymore. so i get what you mean.
the NIN version is actually a completely different song and it's by Aphex Twin, released on a NIN remix album. but at least we are all listening to good musick. now get musick to play in the dark.
@UnitedDiscord falls are the second leading cause of traumatic death behind car crashes. if you don't die from cancer, heart disease, stroke, lower respiratory disease, car crash or poisoning, you'll die from a fall before anything else.
@Schaard Lets be honest nobody really knows the answer to that but one view is deemed as optimistic, the other pessimistic. If you whole-heartedly believe in the silent void then perhaps where you'll end up.... me personally; i'm off to explore the eternal oceans after this ;)
@Schaard But Schaard, both Jhon and Sleazy both believed in a spiritual afterlife, and that death was NOT The End. Sleazy said this explicitly after Jhon died. Their music is often dark, but it sounds like you might be projecting some of YOUR personal opinions onto Coil.
..the type of sound only understood but having experienced the tragedy of death on a massive and personal scale, most likely because of Peter and John's friends suffering and passing away because of the aids epidemic.
@WahkibaJ seriousy, did you just criticize coil by calling them gay? their music was mostly sigils to cultivate male energy. to call coil gay is like calling sugar sweet. i hate sugar, it's so sweet.
Ты не меняешься с теченьем лет. Такой же ты была, когда впервые Тебя я встретил. Три зимы седые Трех пышных лет запорошили след. Три нежные весны сменили цвет На сочный плод и листья огневые, И трижды лес был осенью раздет... А над тобой не властвуют стихии. На циферблате, указав нам час, Покинув цифру, стрелка золотая Чуть движется невидимо для глаз, Так на тебе я лет не замечаю. И если уж закат необходим, - Он был перед рождением твоим.
I'm running on circles of love, joy, happiness, sadness, loneliness, even despair. I can't stop listening to Coil music. After some time it's become a thick troubling center of pulsating nerve somewhere deep inside me, almost only Coil music all along know a way to touch it. Now i feel a great sadness but that sadness is joyful, that sadness is beautiful. Even if they are not exist anymore their music will live inside me, along with themselves and with their feelings. I will take that music to my final grave with pleasure and confidence. True art can make you eternal.
Yep, Nurse With Wound got very interesting and unique sound, i like them. Should we make a full list here? I'll contribute with Sunn o))), Raison D'Etre, Throbbing Gristle (at some points). What else? Contagious Orgasm, Einstürzende Neubauten, Test Dept., Vivenza, The Angelic Process? David Lynch & Alan R. Splet Eraserhead soundtrack as a little bonus? I think i might forgot something. Also i thinks Trent Reznor, as someone who have a huge inspiration by coil, deserve a place here with his soundtracks.
Technically, it wasn't Trent Renzor who did the NIN version - his friend, Richard D. James, alias Aphex Twin, composed the version you hear on the album.
Aphex Twin did the other half of 'Further Down the Spiral', yes. However, Richard did with with 'stuff he had lying around', meaning tracks he had made, but didn't feel it was worth putting into anything he was personally working on. Not a whole lot of anything went into it. The thing is, it still sounds brilliant. Trent Reznor + Aphex Twin working on something..? No wonder why it's my favorite remix album, a proper 'sister album' to one of the most influential albums of the 90's.. and very high on my list of all-time favorites. My favorite track off of 'Futher Down the Spiral' is 'Beauty of Being Numb'.. something so odd about it. Odd in a great way, of course.
I remember the times when i was into coil in the late 80's and trying to get my head around things in my life . and at many a time i found myself ever so unable to do so . i remember listening to the album this track is originally on 'scatology' and trying to end my life , spending hours on end , fantasizing , days on end on how to end my life .... fucked up times they where .
Well, I hope you re still alive and good since your comment is already a while ago. I lost a friend to suicide two days ago and wherever you are, have a good life
I don't know, but this kind of music is becoming one of the best genres for me...first I was like WTF is this music? but now I really enjoy listening to this
right... I agree with you, but also the guy calling bullshit on you coil were deeply immersed in magick, occult stuff etc... jhonn truly believed he could communicate with the dead in his dreams. But, in a weird way, this true believer music just lays it bare how hopeless our predicament is. Like a funeral is poignant and beautiful - the symbolic acknowledgement, while ultimately meaningless, focuses your thoughts on the mind numbing massiveness of what death is
coil have been trying to open the gates in the very psyche of our being. for some they have accomplished so. when this has been done, all is revealed, the gray world we are living in, the dreamless solutions we are offered by the capitalist system, the neoliberal solutions, and the so. coil tried to open a road in the way we perceive ourselves versus the other. the very understanding that in order to perceive "me" there should exist the "other".
To me, fair friend, you never can be old, For as you were when first your eye I eyed, Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold Have from the forests shook three summers' pride, Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turn'd In process of the seasons have I seen, Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burn'd, Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green. Ah! yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand, Steal from his figure and no pace perceived; So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand, Hath motion and mine eye may be deceived: For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred; Ere you were born was beauty's summer dead. William Shakespeare - Sonnet 104
anahitamus im more interested in the movie coming out by oliver stone in november. unBALANCED. THE COILED ONE HITLER. failed like weyland yutani corporation. the crook eyed pissing its pants weak stomach tetsuo to some. drowending raptor in a triathalon. couldnt make the 800m swim team or the mile swim.
Never forget that Coil where a very experimental entity which used musick as a medium for different purposes but modern Pagan spirituality was a recurring theme in their corpus and the main reasin I discovered their musivk along with Throbbing Gristle and P .T.v. off course..yet coil is the most impressive band it it's genre and beyond..Even NIN is eternally in dept towards Coil.
this looks to me like its from derek jarmans "the angelic conversations" film which featured an alternate version of "at the heart of it all" called "montecue"(i think the cd isn't handy)
Wow... I listened to this song yesterday expecting it be something similar to Cold Cell (idk why, Cold Cell is imo COIL's saddest track), and wasn't really feeling it. Now I'm listening the next day, and I must say, it has totally grown on me. It's a different kind of sadness then that of Cold Cell. I don't know how to explain it. Hopefully someone know's what I'm talking about lol.
"To me, fair Friend, you never can be old, For as you were when first your eye I eyed Such seems your beauty still.

@Schaard interestingly enough, neither Jhon or Peter believed that death was "the end," even if you do. However, I agree with you that references to traditional concepts of "heaven" certainly do not apply when it comes to Coil's message.
wow i have to say, i'm really knew to this. I knew the NIN version (who i love) but, i expected a really harsh sound. Instead it's eerie, but utterly soothing. Absolutely amazing.
2024
i cant describe how i feel listening to this....
i surely feel at the edge of the despair in a cold cold autumn night with lonely lights showing the dark and industrial part of the city.
So hapoy to know and own this movie.I am a coil fanboy and love Jarman's work.
i have listened to this album thousands of times.
To me, fair friend, you never can be old
For as you were when first your eye I eyed
Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold
Have from the forests shook three summers' pride
Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turn'd
In process of the seasons have I seen
Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burn'd
Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green
Ah! yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand
Steal from his figure and no pace perceived;
So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand
Hath motion and mine eye may be deceived:
For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred;
Ere you were born was beauty's summer dead
so good.
I just fold and relax on hearing this track
'Montecute' from 'The Angelic Conversation' by Derek Jarman
Shakespeare's sonnets read by Judi Dench
Music by Coil
It's from Derek Jarman's The Angelic Conversation. Coil provided the soundtrack some of which was released as How To Destroy Angels. This however appeared on Scatology.
my favorite coil track.
It just occurred to me that maybe this song (and vid) has got closest to being
I couldn't agree more with you Schaard! You are absolutely (and what is more: precisely) right in your interpretation of Coil's music.
Currently, my fave Coil song.
where is home?
This is so INTENSE! Totally reminds me of that realm beyond terror - despair.
NIOOIIIOCE NOICE NICE !!!
в 2024 все еще слушаю
Yes. Coil created the soundtrack.
oh enochian splendour-Jamran, Pasolini, Coil-RIP to you all on the other side
I've never heard the narraration version. I've only heard the Scatology version. Good to hear.
@psychicdrill - It's the third track on the first Coil album, Scatology.
Culling high people is awesome.
91 actually. i have a copy of it on cd i may be willing to sell. though the album cover has about a half an inch corner cut off of it (was like that when i bought it...) also may have a few scratches tho plays fine.... aye... also have number 1000 or so of black light district.... coil is so amazing, they got me through my late teens early 20s vagabonding..... hahahha

forever & ever
Am I the only one who finds it ironic that John Balance died from falling?
Try also ''Nurse With Wound''.
@UnitedDiscord falls are the second leading cause of traumatic death behind car crashes. if you don't die from cancer, heart disease, stroke, lower respiratory disease, car crash or poisoning, you'll die from a fall before anything else.
one of the saddest tracks ever recorded
I have listened to this record periodically for 20 years, and I have no recollection of any spoken word version at all. Where did this come from?
Amazing combination of sound and vision. Was this video done by Jarman? Whenever they collaborated, there was a real strong marriage of aesthetic.
@L33TSP34KL0L Hehe, i can barely wait.
@shadowkunt
original Coil from the album Scatology
who of you guys know the lirycs?

Where is this version from? Its different from the album version
There is a comment above that I think suggests it's from a Derek Jarmin film called The Angelic Conversation; the voice is Judy Dench
azsx299 Thank you very much!
what kind of music is this?
antinomian pop (spelled backwards)
@WahkibaJ seriousy, did you just criticize coil by calling them gay? their music was mostly sigils to cultivate male energy. to call coil gay is like calling sugar sweet. i hate sugar, it's so sweet.
@LestatHalloween Hey, at least you got it, right? :D
"new to this" sorry.
ROHYPNOL + COIL = THE BEST
loves secret domain is way ahead of its time i thik came out in 89? help me out
where do i get it, rohypnol is still available in drug stores here in mexico, can you give me some valuable info to where can i find HALDOL. gracias.
so....
Ты не меняешься с теченьем лет.
Такой же ты была, когда впервые
Тебя я встретил. Три зимы седые
Трех пышных лет запорошили след.
Три нежные весны сменили цвет
На сочный плод и листья огневые,
И трижды лес был осенью раздет...
А над тобой не властвуют стихии.
На циферблате, указав нам час,
Покинув цифру, стрелка золотая
Чуть движется невидимо для глаз,
Так на тебе я лет не замечаю.
И если уж закат необходим, -
Он был перед рождением твоим.
Beautiful

@psychicdrill - It's the third track on the first Coil album, Scatology.
this "video" is actually the final scene of Derek Jarman's "The Angelic Conversation." such a devastingly beautiful conclusion to a stunning film.
I found the dvd in London edited by the British Flim Institute .
10/10 ....на коленях
One of the heaviest songs ever written. Beautiful

Aphex was friends with NIN?
I find the same type of healing powers in later Talk Talk and Mark Hollis records' as I do in coil's. anyone else?

I’m really not good for my life ❤❤
hope youre doing good today...
I don't know, but this kind of music is becoming one of the best genres for me...first I was like WTF is this music? but now I really enjoy listening to this
This song is so despondently beautiful. Thank you, John, Peter, and Stephen.
RIP Balance
A large gap in my education is being closed. I'm glad I lived long enough to discover this band, should have happened years ago.

my friend died three days ago. `i am here and i cannot move from this track yet.
Still loving Coil in 2018
Here I am again
fell from his balcony, drunk, landed on his head. he is missed! "93 do as thou will"

This looks like it's shot on super 8. It looks like a memory of a dream. I love that feel.
