This internet only compilation was released for the duration of one moon cycle in December 2004 by dark winter. It was re-released for a second and final time in December 2005 for another moon cycle, containing seven additional tracks.

"Full cold moon" was compiled in honour and memory of Jhonn Balance (1962-2004), singer and founder of Coil, one of the most influential and striking bands developing from the early 1980's industrial/esoteric culture.

"So hard to touch the sky" forms the final part of the "Air" section of the forthcoming Desvelos album. However, this version was specially recorded in honor of Jhonn Balance, and is respectfully dedicated to his memory. It will not be available anywhere else in this form, now or in the future.
