Overall impression: excellent! This cd is essentially a compilation of "Love's Secret Domain" era outtakes and alternate versions. Bizarre, beautiful and experimental in nature, this cd is as varied as "LSD", if not more. From the cool jazz of "Omlagus .." to the bass and drum groove of "Nasa Arab" to the classy orchestral arrangements of "The Original ..", "Who'll Tell?" and "Corybantic .." to the drones of "Wrim .." to the slow sample buildup of "Her Friends .." ... you definitely know you're listening to Coil. "Who'll Fall?" may be one of the most beautifully sad pieces ever committed to tape. The track features the telephone recording of a friend of Coil's explaining that a mutual friend had recently committed suicide ... very eerie. Unfortunately, this cd is a pretty expensive import ... but well worth the cost. Another must have release from Coil.
