{"product_id":"coil-astral-disaster-tth-edition-2lp","title":"Coil - Astral Disaster (TTH Edition) [2LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eCoil's Astral Disaster, one of the most elusive records in the duo's catalogue, is set to return in its rebuilt TTH Edition as a remastered double LP in a gatefold jacket with a poster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album began life in 1999 as a tiny subscription-only vinyl release of just 99 copies, before John Balance and Peter Christopherson reworked it for their own Threshold House label. That later version, the TTH Edition, is fuller and more textured, built up layer by layer into one of their most immersive works, with Thighpaulsandra adding to the alchemy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mood is tidal and lunar, all slow washes of sound and drifting electronics. The Sea Priestess opens with Balance intoning lyrics drawn from Aleister Crowley's descriptions of the murals at the Abbey of Thelema, set against hypnotic, rippling drones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Avatars is a strange, glowing synthesizer piece that Balance linked to childhood memories of sneaking downstairs to watch The Quatermass Experiment, while I Don't Want To Be The One drifts into a haunted, meditative trance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor admirers of Coil and anyone drawn to ritual ambient music, this edition offers a rare chance to own a once-unobtainable piece of their story. It rewards headphones, darkness and patience in equal measure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57478828622129,"sku":"710473185899","price":67.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Coil-Astral_Disaster_TTH_Edition_2LP_327e9a90-8640-415c-9236-ff70e662afe8.jpg?v=1794395714","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/coil-astral-disaster-tth-edition-2lp","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
