  1. Nice to see Coil make the list, although there are far better examples of their work than this cover.

  2. I was also happy to see the addition of Coil, but I am fond of this cover (for very sentimental reasons). I’d love to hear more Coil; “Ostia” is one of my favorite tracks from Horse Rotorvator (which is a radio-friendly release, generally speaking). I’m sure you could play some of their more esoteric stuff to the delight of Coil fans, but I know you’ve got a whole show to program. If you ever decide to do a covers show (or a covers hour), their version of “Who By Fire” is worth consideration.

  3. thumbs up for Comsat Angel’s Be Brave. My favorite Comsat track.

    Hey Matt, how about “God In an Alcove”, by Bauhaus for Sunday. Unless you want to play “Crippled Children Suck” by the Meatmen. God, how could you even think of that, you sick bastard?!
