The Boner I'm not used to Coil sounding so accessible...

Michael Ryley I’ve been listening to this and the new Kylie non-stop. Maybe the two are related somehow? Favorite track: Exploding Frogs.

yelworK "Theme.." and "Alternative Theme..." are completely worth the price. The alternate mixes of songs from SACS album are....ok, but not as good as the originals, which for some reason (length padding?) are also here. Get this for the two themes, but don't miss out on buying SOCS just because there is a bit of that material on this release, the whole album is essential. Favorite track: Alternative Theme From Gay Man's Guide To Safer Sex.

PLEASE NOTE:

Musique Pour La Danse is proud to present Coil's unreleased soundtrack for the VHS only, pre-internet, sexual education documentary entitled "The Gay Man's Guide To Safer Sex" released in 1992. Members for this project are John Balance, Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson and Danny Hyde.

The OST, to quote John Balance's interview for Compulsion Online, "is [a] slightly new agey, progressive house type thing". 

Another way to approach it is as a delightful collection of balearic beats, smoking jazz not far removed from Badalamenti's work with David Lynch, somewhat of an ambient house album for your home listening and early morning sunrise dances, Coil style.

Taken from the original masters provided by Danny Hyde, "The Gay Man's Guide To Safer Sex" features a new sexy edit of the main theme. Bonuses  "Nasa-Arab" and "Omlagus Garfungiloops" are taken from the 1992 CD only "Stolen And Contaminated Songs", both being original versions of the radically reworked (for the OST) "Nasa-Arab 2" and "Exploding Frogs" in order to balance the whole album and extend the listening pleasure.
