* Update * I'm quite enjoying Time Machine
There is a Timemachines II (and 3, though neither are up to the original release in my humble opinion)
I'd say head straight to Musick to Play In the Dark Vols 1+2 for mor musical Coil. Fer a bit more variety, 'Moons Milk In Four Phases', the collected Solstice/Equinox EP's have some wonderful moments, as well as some noisy dissonance too.
Early albums Like 'Scatology' and 'Horse Rotorvator', and the out-takes fer that period LP 'Gold Is The Metal With The Broadest Shoulders' are nicely odd but accessable, ditto their 'rave' period release 'Loves Secret Domain'.
Proggier stuff like Astral Disaster have extended tracks up to 20 mins that is wonderfully relaxing.
There's this Coil Live Archive http://live-coil-archive.com/ put together where you can listen or download whatever you want till yer hearts content. Despite it's name (yes it has pretty much every live show they've done) it has the regular albums too in Ogg, FLAC MP3 or APE, or whatever you want really.
Happy listening.
Do love that Craven Faults collection, esp on long car journeys. They've couple a new EP or LP's, out at the mo too...
