I put together a “Coil in ten songs” playlist to share with @catcitycigarbear.bsky.social, and provided YouTube links, but I have these songs in my library, so I’m listening on my phone. I leaned more commercial because Coil can be difficult. Everyone’s list would be different.
So, so many broken men in this word who are scared, petulant, stupid little boys.
After several days of stellar weather for Pride we’re back to June gloom. Current temp is 54 degrees.
Why are ZZ Top’s ‘80s remixes somehow MORE ‘80s than some overdone “kitchen sink” 12” singles by actual British synthpop bands? There’s more metal clanging in “Velcro Fly” than in all of Depeche Mode’s “People Are People.” 😅

Here are 3 assembled 2009-2010. Folks got creative with the box design, and shared their DIY blueprints with us. Some also chose to roll the Joy Division singles into their boxes (we did that as a separate Recycle the following year).
In my library I have each single split into its various 7” and 12” configurations so I can see all the artwork.
Kate McKinnon as Melanie Griffith - this is where she got her start. Yes, they are making fun of how blown-out the lighting was on season one of Drag Race. 😁
Drove down to Pacifica at lunch, and gave a wave to Nathan @vinyltron.bsky.social while I was there.
