Alternative PressThe Humbucking Coil's captivating soundscapes evoke more emotion via machines than most bands can with "real" instruments. [Mar 2006, p.138]
-
This increased humanism lends Fleischmann’s compositions an evolutionary sense of dynamism, thawing out his stern soundscapes.
-
A Sunday-nap headphone-record that successfully conveys emotion.
-
UrbA mesmeric 45 minutes. [Mar 2006, p.122]
-
Fleischmann goes to the same well perhaps a little too often here… but if the well is full of something that tastes good, why wouldn’t you go there as often as you can?
-
The tracks fail to hang together in a convincing way -- often giving the impression that they were more or less strung together on a whim.
-
A languid mood piece with discreet variations, Coil is a pleasant, if homogeneous, listening experience.
