About the Artist
Thermos Malling is the drummer from the band Doo Rag. He and Coin partner Walter met in a German laundrymat in 1996. Their love of bizarre electronic msic brought them together.
Album Description
Coin's refreshingly unique sound is sculpted in part by the Commodore 64 home microcomputer's musical palette. In an age when analog synthesizers are dubbed old school, coin can best be described as pre school.

Coin Album is Cash Money.......2000-12-21
Architects of Character is an irreverent album filled with brilliant social commentaries on post-modernism. Coin spares no sacred cows. Front woman Walter, known for her high impact and animated shows, exudes such a force on the album that listeners can tangibly feel her presence.
The Wobbler (Track 15), challenges eating disorders as man is manifested as Pac Man. Battlefield (Track 9) mocks the age-old debate between Neo-Classism and Marxian theory. Daylighthorizon (Track 8) is a biting satire of nuclear non-proliferation.
Listeners are also treated to an homage to the great eighties band Journey. The band's cover of Journey's Loving, Touching, Squeezing hits a home run in a stylistically sound that can only be described as Coin.
