The Red Coil

Formed in April 2008 in the west Milan area The Red Coil is an Italian five-piece that mixes stoner, sludge and rock with a beer and whiskey flavor. The name The Red Coil is related to the concept of Kundalini, the energy that resides in the subtle body and it’s traditionally represented as a sleeping serpent coiled at the base of the spine. The Red Coil’s music is the alcoholic heavy riffs soundtrack for a trip through altered mental state along the “left hand path”. The band released the first Ep “Sloug Off” in 2009 including three songs and receiving very good feedback. The song “Burning Shores” was chosen to open the Sludge Swamp Comp Vol.II promoted by the Sludge Swamp Webzine, and for this track they make a video clip inspired by the Aghora tradition. After a couple of years spent playing in the north of Italy with some important bands on the stoner/doom scene they started working on the new material. On May 2011 they entered the Octopussy Studio for the recording sessions of their first album. The new record professionally recorded and mixed will include 10 songs mastered by Jacob Bredahl (Hatesphere, Allhelluja) at Dead Rat Studio (Denmark). The Red Coil are ready ! Heavy and groovy like never before! www.theredcoil.com
