(2000)"Time Machines" is Coil's landmark
drone music album , released under the alias Time Machines. It consists of 4 tracks which are composed of a single tone, called a drone. Each tone represents a certain hallucinogenic chemical (see track titles). It is similar toBrian Eno 's early ambient albums, but more functional in that, instead of creating an atmosphere of calm, it facilitatestime travel , according to band founderJohn Balance . Each tone was tested and retested in the studio for maximumnarcotic potency. John Balance described the album as an attempt to "dissolve time" [http://brainwashed.com/common/sounds/mp3/coil-interview-radio_inferno-20010620.mp3] .At one point, a five disc "Time Machines" box set was planned [http://brainwashed.com/coil/news/news1998.html] . In January 2006, a two disc version was announced as a future release. [http://www.thresholdhouse.com/arrivals.html]
