I'd rather listen to this noisefest than fall asleep to Tombs or Blouse or whatever else is on your top 2011 list.

As promised, the second part of my I Am Spoonbender revival trilogy:
Sender/Receiver
Download
The most overlooked album of the 90s? Maybe a bit too bold of a claim but definitely the most overlooked album on GSL's roster! IAS was (is???) at its core Cup and Dustin with a rotating set of musicians making unclassifiable tunes in their mysterious studio above San Fran's legendary Aquarius Records. Featuring: drum and bass, heavy modular synthesizer foreplay, tape loops, field recordings, telepathic subliminal messages, Uri Geller references before you started reblogging every picture of Carl Sagan in front of a nebula, and the best fucking asymmetrical haircuts since A Flock of Seagulls. You've slept on this for long enough, now here's your chance to catch up.
Teletwin EP
Download
I've always thought of this as a b-sides collection to Sender/Receiver. Has an alternate version of "Stopwatch Static" that gives the original a run for its money, a reworking of Berlin's "Metro" and four lengthy instrumental jams.
Useless trivia of the day: the vinyl for this was pressed as a three "sided" record, meaning the second side has two grooves in it allowing for random play.

The only GSL band I still listen to
I Am Spoonbender - Shown Actual Size
Download
Been talking about posting this for years and now that I'm bent on posting the rest of Coil's discography it makes sense. Unfortunately, I don't have all of my IAS albums with me so this will have to suffice for now.
IAS was a San Francisco group, heavily influenced by Coil, Psychic TV, Throbbing Gristle, etc. They actually got me into all of that music. This EP is part of their later work, which became much more synth/vocal oriented.

"This is one of those records that is either one of THEE most amazing and bizarre collections of random and far out archival sounds and recordings, or it's one of the most meticulously assembled sonic hoaxes EVER. And as it usually is with records like this, it almost doesn't matter."

Pivixki - Gravissima
Download
Finally found this record after months of scouring every crevice of the Internet. Australian duo with schizophrenic piano beats and super clean blast beats. They'll be playing with Mike Patton in San Francisco sometime in May. Check them out if you live in the area.

I'm not going to bullshit you and tell you this is some amazing avant garde masterpiece. Most people who listen to this are immediately going to write it off as pretentious noodling, and then there will be people like me who think it's so over the top ridiculous that you can't help but love it.
Pivixki (don't ask me how it's pronounced) are an Australian duo who play piano fucking grindcore...More or less, anyway. Well, not really but it sounds cool, right?

Coil - Musick to Play in the Dark Vol. 1
Download
As some of you might know, Peter Christopherson died in his sleep last night at the age of 55. Along with John Balance (also deceased), Christopherson was a founding member of Coil.
This album released in 1999 was the first "proper" Coil album since 1991's Love's Secret Domain, though Balance and Christopherson remained very active during those eight years under other monikers. Departure from early industrial sound into an experimental electronic "moon" music style.

Ye Olde Maids - God Blesses Us, Mother Dresses Us and other recordings
Download
You guys have been wanting this for over a year now and here it is: Ye Olde Maids was a Wes Eisold (Some Girls, Cold Cave) bedroom recording project from 2006-2008 during his transitory phase in between hardcore and synth pop. Eisold only has one hand so this was his first serious attempt at recording music by himself, which results in really low fi, noisy jams of simple chord progression eventually replaced with keyboards and a voice vocoder.
Heartworm reissue with a demo and previously unreleased recordings, some of which would become Cold Cave songs.
