Biography
This Mortal Coil was a [l=4AD] "supergroup" of sorts that recorded three albums and a few other tracks between 1983 and 1991. The only official members of the project were 4AD label head [a=Ivo Watts-Russell] and well-known producer [a=John Fryer], but many vocalists and musicians from 4AD (and non-4AD) groups such as [a=Dead Can Dance], [a=Cocteau Twins], [a=Dif Juz], [a=Colourbox], [a211771], [a=Cindytalk], [a=Breathless] and more were involved at various points in the project's lifespan. While the project was retired following the 1991 album "Blood", the concept was revisited by Ivo in 1998 with a similar collective called [a=The Hope Blister]. The name This Mortal Coil is taken from the [a262731]'s Flying Circus [url=https://www.discogs.com/Monty-Python-Monty-Pythons-Flying-Circus/release/2627603]"Dead Parrot sketch"[/url], which in turn is a quote from [a348179]'s Hamlet ("... what dreams may come, when we have shuffled off this mortal coil...").
