A Thousand Lights In A Darkened Room is the only release by the group Black Light District. Although this is not an official Coil release, "Black Light District" was merely an alias for the group. The alias is one of a few assumed by them in the mid-nineties for putting out drone based music.

"Unprepared Piano" is a reference to the prepared piano technique created by John Cage, who Coil are said to be fond of. "Blue Rats" was later remixed and released on the compilation Foxtrot, credited to Coil. "London's Lost Rivers" is a cover of the Coil song "The Lost Rivers Of London" aka "Lost Rivers Of London".

According to brainwashed.com: "This is the first in a planned trilogy of Black Light District releases. A boxed set featuring reworked versions of all three releases was hinted at once the series is complete". As we know that will not happen now.

I am in the process of selling off a significant portion of my 20+ year collection of rare records, cassettes, 8-tracks and CD's. My goal is to raise enough for a family trip to Disneyland in the next year or so. Please email me with any questions or concerns. Thanks for looking!
