"Recoiled" is a rambunctious alchemy, of magikal COIL sensibilities and hi-tech circa 90s home mixing technique, all fused in the cave-like early studios of Danny Hyde/Peter Christopherson. These were the unrestrained pre-BIG studio mix downs of four NINE INCH NAILS songs which long time admirer/collaborator TRENT REZNOR requested COIL to remix.
Reznor sent over the original multi-tracks and DATs to Hyde/Christopherson, who independently mixed versions and then met to synch both creations, molding them into these master versions.
"Recoiled" includes a fuller, more opulent version of the track "Closer", which eventually made it onto the opening credits to the movie "SE7EN". These lengthy compositions are pre-Ableton/laptop generation type priest song creations, with the use of baby alarms and numerous wires to create bespoke effects. These legendary tracks were always rumoured to exist and, only the due to the diligence of a dedicated NIN forum who hunted them down are they now released/unleashed for your listening pleasure.
