Coil

COIL:
Jhonn Balance & Peter Christopherson
Jhonn Balance (1962–2004) died tragically in an accident at his home on the 13 November 2004.
Formed in London in 1983 by John Balance as a solo side project to Psychic TV, the project soon developed into a full-scale musical group in 1984, when he cemented a partnership with Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson. Christopherson had been a founder of Psychic TV and member of Throbbing Gristle. For over twenty years Coil had been at the forefront of European experimentalism and electronic music. Peter Christopherson has decided that, with the passing of Jhonn Balance, Coil cannot continue.
