Now then, it is with GREAT pleasure that I am able to offer here this set from 31 May 2004 at Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig, Germany.

Coil Live at Wiki has this to say about the 2004 incarnation of Coil:

"In 2004 Coil embarked on their final tour titled "Even An Evil Fatigue"."

I was made aware of this set as torrent in an Anonymous comment left on my post requesting help filling out the Live incarnations of Coil. Well bless my soul if this isn't one hell of an amazing set. Per the original torrent poster's request, I have not converted these to a lossy format, but apple lossless. Sounds TASTY in the ipod, my friends.

From Brainwashed Coil News 2004:

"January 19th, 2004
Coil will be performing at the Wave Gotik Treffen festival which takes place in Leipzig, Germany on May 28th to 31st, 2004. Other bands confirmed to appear include Clan of Xymox, Covenant and Suicide Commando, with many more to be announced."

Personnel:

John Balance

Peter Christopherson

Thighpaulsandra

Tom Edwards

Tracklisting:

01 - The Gimp (Sometimes)

02 - Sex With Sun Ra

03 - Broccoli

04 - All The Pretty Little Horses

05 - (I Can't Get A Word In) Edgeways

06 - Tattooed Man

07 - Teenage Lightning (10th Birthday Version)

08 - Wraiths And Strays

09 - Black Antlers (Where's Your Child?)

Compare this to the Paris set(2004-05-23). I am right now. Very different energies between the shows. I'd love to hear the continuity of this tour if someone knows of the Milkweg show's existence(2004-06-03). For now, though, do your own comparison. I like the acoustic qualities of the room as translated in this recording. Very full. Broccoli. mmm mmm good. Some audience chatter, but not too bad. "At least they have a shower":) Recording ends after last song. I don't know if there was some manner of John saying thank you or such, but I should imagine he did.

Apple Lossless.

Addendum:

Loaded as individual tracks and available in each title of the tracklisting. If you have any issues, please advise. There was much funkiness with the power over the 2 days it took me to upload this around outages. Cheers!
