Mute shares Coil’s ‘Either His, or Yours,’ a third track off ‘Gold is the Metal’

Mute and Coil’s Threshold House label are reissuing ‘Gold is the Metal (With the Broadest Shoulders)’ on 30 October 2026, the final record of Coil’s early 1980s trilogy following ‘Scatology’ (1984) and ‘Horse Rotorvator’ (1986). The remaster includes reconstructed artwork by Stephen Thrower and Ossian Brown, drawing on archives of photographs, artefacts and personal notes from the late John Balance. Three tracks have been pre-released: ‘Cardinal Points’, ‘Aqua Regalia’ and now ‘Either His, or Yours’. This marks the first release under a new Mute–Threshold House partnership planned to restore four early Coil albums to print, with subsequent releases including the Derek Jarman ‘Angelic Conversation’ soundtrack, previously unreleased ‘Hellraiser’ music by Coil, and the compilation ‘Unnatural History’.
