This Immortal Coil - The World Ended A Long Time Ago

In 2009, four years after Jhonn Balance's death, This Immortal Coil's "The Dark Age of Love" appeared as a tribute to the superb work of the British band Coil over two decades. Formed by musicians from all walks of life, the album was praised by critics but also – and most importantly – by Peter Christopherson himself!

13 years have passed and this passion for the band has never wavered. Following the death of Peter Christopherson in 2010 on the one hand, and meetings with musicians such as David Chalmin or Massimo Pupillo from Zü, who in turn wanted to pay tribute to this gigantic band, on the other hand, Stéphane Grégoire's desire to create a new opus took shape in 2017 with a first recording of the track "Where Are You". Just like the first one, more than 5 years would be necessary to realize this new album so that it would be worthy of Coil's genius.

The Ici d'Ailleurs team is very proud to unveil This Immortal Coil's second album. This time the artists are Coil lovers, but the album is not a "lovers" cover album, as that would be contrary to Coil's image.

Many, many thanks to Shannon Wright, David Chalmin, Matt Elliott, Christine Ott, Aho Ssan, Ga-spar Claus, Aidan Baker, Ulver, Massimo Pupillo, Mattia Cipolli, Elisa Bognetti, Stefano Michelotti, Francesco Bolognini, Marton Csokas, Ivan Chiossone, and Eric Aldéa who made this project a reality.
