Metropolis Records will release Icon Of Coil's "Serenity Is The Devil" on the occasion of the 25th anniversary!

"Serenity Is The Devil (25th Anniversary Remaster Edition)" will be out on October 24th, remastered by Sebastian Komor and it will be available worldwide on 2xLP translucent orange vinyl and digitally featuring the previously unreleased ‘SEC FOUR’.

Icon of Coil is a Norwegian futurepop/EBM band formed in 1997 by musician and producer Andy LaPlegua (who later went on to create Combichrist). Initially started as a solo project, it quickly grew into a full band with the addition of Sebastian Komor in 1999 and Christian Lund in 2000.

Blending driving electronic beats, melodic synth lines and moody yet accessible vocals, they swiftly became one of the most influential acts in the dark electronic genre. Their debut album, ‘Serenity Is The Devil’ (2000), charted in the Top 3 of the German DAC Alternative Chart, with its follow-up ‘The Soul Is In The Software’ (2002), reaching the coveted no. 1. ‘Machines Are Us’ (2004) further solidified their reputation for combining club-ready energy with introspective, futuristic themes.

Known for their energetic live performances and a polished electronic sound, Icon of Coil toured extensively across Europe and North America, often alongside other scene leaders such as VNV Nation and Covenant. While the band has been largely inactive since the mid-2000s as members pursued other projects, their work continues to inspire the futurepop, industrial and electronic music scenes.

‘Serenity Is The Devil’ had been licensed to Metropolis Records for North America upon its original release. The label is now making an expanded 25th anniversary remastered edition available worldwide on 2xLP translucent orange vinyl and digitally. The vinyl package features the previously unreleased ‘SEC FOUR’.
