Free Music Notes for The Ape of Naples
Free Music Review: Brilliant and tragically prophetic
Hit: 5 Stars
Most casual listeners have probably never even heard of Coil, and if they did, chances are that it was their IDM masterwork, 'Love's Secret Domain.' This is a tragedy, as Coil has produced some of the most cutting-edge work in the history of electronic music, and 'The Ape of Naples' is not only no exception to this rule, but it may be their crowning achievement.
Unlike the gleefully satirical parody of the British techno scene that was 'Love's Secret Domain,' 'The Ape of Naples' is filled to the brim with sorrow and regret, as well as meditations on mortality (vocalist Jhonn Balance died almost immediately after the album was finished) and unrequited love. There is a treasure trove of beauty in these songs, balanced with painful honesty and a wonderful, ironically funereal-yet-reassuring cover of the theme song to the British sitcom "Are You Being Served?", prophetically entitled "Going Up." A must have for Coil fans, and indeed fans of music in general.
The Ape of Naples Poster
Featuring songs recorded in the final days of Jhonn Balance's life, as well as material originally recorded at Trent Reznor's studio in New Orleans, and now substantially re-arranged by Peter Christopherson, this album is sure to be seen as the 'classic' Coil album of all time, and is not to be missed under any circumstances!
