Rush Hour of the Gods: Transmission 257, 2016 January 6

Welcome to the first program of 2016, which finds us doing something predictable, playing a Coil record, and doing something else predictable, which is sounding awesome. OF COURSE bad things happen on this program, and AS USUAL it doesn't matter. This one goes in the vault. (They all go in the vault, but some postings merit the announcement more than others.)

As the history apparently goes, "Backwards" was something that Coil began to record either with Trent Reznor of at Trent Reznor's studio. I am too lazy to google at the moment. But here, from my youTube "favorites" list, is something funny Peter Christopherson said about Nine Inch Nails:

You know what, though? I'm going to tell you something that would probably have sickened Younger Me, so it's a good thing that guy can't use a time machine to see this: I have actually come to believe in recent years that Trent Reznor is a lovely guy, or at least that he has become one. Old age is making me really soft.

Miscellaneous: the same person who called in to request Can chided me a few minutes later for playing Motorhead and not Hawkwind. People are tough to please.
