Coil - Love's Secret Domain

[screendrem]

Even the demos of LSD are worth having. They're referred to as Love's Secret Demise.

[acidfwd]

Re-release all their stuff, please!

[SirVladHarkonen]

LSD

[ConstantBurningFire]

Insanely original, dark, and capturing.

One of the most influential songs ever made:

O Rose, thou art sick!

[KADZI666]

lsd

good good good

[missvqtoyou]

the love of my life broke up with me 3 weeks ago. Yet again, COIL captures it perfectly.

[Xx14HeavyNormalxX]

Incredible. Nothing will ever come close to what Coil has made.

I have this on album, Love's Secret Domain. I also have Gold Is The Metal With The Broadest Shoulders.

[ekhighvoltage]

Phenomenal lyrics!!!!!

[roboticdaly]

For reference:

O Rose thou art sick.

The invisible worm,

That flies in the night

In the howling storm:

Has found out thy bed

Of crimson joy:

And his dark secret love

Does thy life destroy.

William Blake, 1794

[luistun]

It cost me $40.00 dlls at Ebay... and i dont care about it...You´re mine now.

[amykat93]

my heart is a rose



[hundhun17]

Their music really fucks with my head, like im trapped in a schitozphrenic head.

Bends my mind.

Had a deep psychological way of intimidating or scaring the listener.

John Balance was a genius as was sleazy.

[Isosyth]

@hundhun17 >Had a deep psychological way of intimidating or scaring the listener.

I'm fairly certain I saw an interview where they said something along the lines of "We want to scare people out of their normal life."

[OhNoo74]

Lots of memories for this song. Love coil!

[screendrem]

I started a band called Love's Secret Domain a few years ago. It doesn't sound like coil but was indeed inspired by the Coil Aesthetic. The band has an Ep called PURE. It's on itunes and amazon. Look it up. It was produced out of a bedroom in Southern California with no budget and mastered to tape.

[saramonster133]

Respond to this video... HAHA...i'm retarded, lol

sry for the previous post, if you received it - i'm in drunky-tard mode, lol

will def check out your band tho... :)

[screendrem]

@saramonster133 Way cool. Thanks! If you're into the band Love's Secret Domain you can download it free on demonoid if you have a membership there. (I encourage people to steal it) If you don't have a membership there and can't affort it, then I could send you one for free. I'm a huge COIL fan. RIP Jonh and SLEAZY. They've absolutely inspired me on many levels.

[saramonster133]

@screendrem Huge fan here as well. :) I THOUGHT I'd been deep inside my head before I heard COIL - Definitely some of the MOST influential, and inspirational moments I've ever had -

I do have a membership tho, & will def check out ze downloadness! Thanks man! :)

[Psypomp]

This album is going for $49 on Amazon right now. So disappointing!

[kundalini0]

rip uncle sleazy. i'll remember you for fucking my mind forever

[dvargashell]

my heart is a rose!

[redshaftedflicker]

I had no clue at the time who Coil was, hell i was into The Stooges and Black Sabbath but the cover art blew me away and once I wrapped my head around the music, I was forever indebted to one of the most creative and original groups ever.

[xchott]

what can i say, i love me some satanic homosexual acid freaks....seriously....they need to re-release thier version of the "hellraiser" soundtrack....too "creepy" MY ASS!

[WagesofSin309]

I want lyrics please.

[ReadSchopenhauer]

@WagesofSin309 it's partly based on William Blake's "O Rose Thou Art Sick" poem. You can find the lyrics by typing "coil o rose thou art sick" into google

[otacon451]

everyone needs to read "England's Hidden Reverse" amazing accounts of what was going on when they were making music

[ladronguapo]

my first introduction to Coil many years ago.....now, i have everything they've ever made. (well, at least i think....)

[balkis76]

Oh God... John... John... Oh God...

[cri64italia]

Amazing.

[unisomerzzz]

The in dreams lyrics are from Roy Orbison's song and william blakes "o rose thou art sick" poem ...awesome

[warlockboyburns]

anyone else feel that these days music is just echos of bands like this?

[Sledhicket]

what version is this? it sounds quite different from the original lp version?

[ImitationOfChris]

RIP Sleazy. Amazing Artist. 

[ariesviolent]

RIP Sleazy

[AlouaisA]

O rose thou art SICK.......

EPIC!!!

x

[JeffroCodiene]

Hey Sleazy, if you read this,.. Thanks for everything.

[TheSkritiy]

cool

[rathbloom24]

choir

[rathbloom24]

threshold boys chior..'arose thou art sick,the invisible one',

[redshaftedflicker]

these guys get lumped in with the "industrial" crowd/scene/genre which is a shame. they are so much more than that--one of the most creative bands/projects ever that is for sure.

[sinep667]

@redshaftedflicker but they are the most industrial band of them all

industrial doesnt mean its gritty or dark or anything

the basic principle of industrial music is to insert experimental elements to mainstream music and to find a way to sell it.

coil is the crown of industrial music.

rip john, rip industrial

[ladronguapo]

@sinep667 i just stumbled upon your quote. beautifully said.

[eindoppelganger]

@sinep667 Um, sorry but you might want to read the Inductrial Culture Handbook from RESearch to get an idea of what the founders of the "movement" intended it to be. "Experimental" elements in mainstream music is quite far off the mark. It differs between artists but the only one that comes close to yoru definition might have been Cabaret Voltaire. Inserting subversive elements into popular culture might be a better attempt to sum it up.

[sinep667]

@eindoppelganger youare completely right! english isnt my native language so i was short of words. i will remember your terms now :)

[eindoppelganger]

@sinep667 cheers :)

[transparence]

perfect4tonite's equinox fullmoon

[thedistortedpoet1]

Please do NOT try to cover this song. Ever. IT will never do anyone justice.

[sinep667]

@thedistortedpoet1 there are actually two covers (by the same artist) which are both suprisingly good.

search for this immortal coil - love's secret domain and matt elliott - LSD outro

[skidotcom1]

@Shadowthrone08 you're just kidding, right? i mean seriously. that's about as stupid as anything i've ever read.

[cromlek]

I dropped so much acid to this album!!!!! :)

[MeekDrill]

I need this CD, as all COIL material. Pure Genius

[MerlinAmbrosius17]

R.I.P. Mr. Balance.

[Shadowthrone08]

Why am I reminded of that Roy Orbison song "In Dreams" Tribute or ripoff? :/

[unisomerzzz]

Sexy! This combines Ray Orbison and William Blake's poetry!

[fritzo62]

Who the heck is Ray Orbison? :P

[unisomerzzz]

A singer from the 50's. The song is "in dreams" and it's in this great Coil song.

[fritzo62]

Ah guess you mean Roy Orbison, ok.

[Clematisian]

Very very very creepy! ~ (•8-D

[QUEERsten]

Brings me back to my high school days

[gishikin]

@QUEERsten you too...love this album

[honeypower]

Why are their albums so hard to find :(

[shadowkunt]

so people like you can't get them

[48kbrain]

ooh.... nice

[texasB666]

thats a line from roy orbison : ' in dreams you're mine all the time'

[lrlarue]

jhonn was genius mashin up william blake and roy orbison and da music peterer etc..xx

[scumco]

Lots of crowley in their stuff .

[Problembeing]

I often finish a DJ set with this... rapturous :)

Can someone (other than me) post 'Who'll Fall' PLEASE.

[NJD1967]

What a shame that most of Coil's recorded output is difficult to obtain& at rip off prices too!!!

Re-release the back catalogue NOW!!!

Thank you for posting!!

[thedistortedpoet1]

@NJD1967

It's the price you pay for superb and exquisite rarities. It is like a rare first edition; You may get to read it, but rarely get to own a copy :-)

[PantheonOf12]

@NJD1967 yes i totally agree with you ..just do it ..

[ThePoisonDoor]

Fantastic... great song from a great album of the same name!

[natesot]

what a fucking amazing album this is, i was like 13 when it came out and it just blew me away, and still dose. So much has tryed but there really hasnt been anything close since. I would really like to hear the new stuf sleazy is doing with his possesed boys.

[stinkybeads]

@natesot First day i brought this i dropped a tab and fucking flew. Great cd!

[jasonbigelow]

@natesot Agreed,i bought this album in a fucking shopping mall as a teen. try doing that now

[kundalini0]

@natesot rip sleazy

[jmyers95655]

ha I remember living in Chicago when this came out & in the clubs, they'd play this right after Thrill Kill Kult or Die Warzau, & people would be like, "what the fuck"?

[forafewneedlesmore]

lol , this always reminds me of early 20th century Bataclan cabaret in Ilheus ... all that coke (un)Balanced by the odd bathroom morphine hit ... a foul , foul scent brought along from Edinburgh getting fouler to that heat ... all around me ... Ha, "all around me" was that main stage . Cheers Jhonn

[termagaunt]

fucking amazing! the height of coil TO ME (note and save that bag of shit you're carrying around for everybody) is Gold Is THe Metal, ROtovator, and this. oh, this. it's how i remember that fabulously fucking strange individual...
