Coil - Moon's Milk (In Four Phases) / Music To Play In The Dark 1 & 2 /Test Dept/ Brith Gof - Gododdin


If you'd added the general release of Astral Disaster (the one on World Serpent with the NWW sratchy doll artwork), that would be most of me fave Coil records right there (oh, and Timemachines, though technically an offshoot project).

Goddodin is deffo my fav Test Dept release, though I realise it's a collaboration with theatre performance group Brith Gof. Sadly missed the shows at the time, think one took place in a colliery in Wales, must have been amazing. The last track Truan Yw Gennyf Fi (Lament) has some great prose in it...

"It is a grief to me, after toil, suffering deaths agony.
And a second heavy grief to me, to have seen our men fall headlong.
And long sighing and lamentation, after the fiery men of our land
Treon and Gugon, Gweion and Gullagen, Bravest in their station, mighty in Combat. May theirs souls, after battle be welcome in the land of heaven, home of plenty".

Apologies for the spelling of names, dunno if they are correct or not, I spelled the phonetically.

Stumbled across a documentary about it all on Utwat ....
