Notes

The title translates as "A Guide For Beginners - A Silver Voice".

An anthology release of ambient/introspective tracks from Coil's back-catalogue, plus the new track "A Cold Cell".

The first of two anthology CDs created to mark Coil's live performance in Moscow on September 15, 2001.
This volume features a selection of melancholy and melodic pieces from throughout Coil's career, along with the new track "A Cold Cell". The other volume is A Guide for Finishers: A Golden Hair, which features more aggressive and noisy tracks.
The English title given above is a loose translation of the Russian title devised by Ivan Pavlov of COH.
The tracks "Are You Shivering?" and "Ostia (The Death of Pasolini)" are listed in the wrong order on the cover. The track listing above is the correct one.
