Scatalogy and Angelic Conversations are my least favorites. I would recommend the Unnatural History 1, How to Destroy Angels, Stolen and Contaminated, Gold is the Metal, Hellraiser themes, Love Secret Domain, and Horse Rotorvator. They are all good starting points. I didn't care for the other Unnatural Histories as much, because I already had alot of the tracks on them, but they may suit you more since you don't have them. Scatalogy is a weak release for them. I don't know why people think it's that great. Some of the Elph stuff didn't do much for me either, it's ok. Speaking of Coil does anyone know if that Autechre/Coil Collaboration is ever going to come out. It was part of the Intercourse Series. Sounded pretty cool. I think Labradford and Coil were suppose to collaborate also. And maybe Download if there was time. Isn't Coil suppose to have a cd on Nothing coming out? _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
