Пособие для кончающих: Волос Злата was the second of two CD compilations released to mark Coil's first performance in Russia. The title loosely translates to "A Guide For Finishers: A Hair Of Gold". It is a collection of their industrial style works.

The Russian title was devised by Ivan Pavlov of COH. The Russian word for "finisher" suggests both suicide and orgasm.[1]

The album was released an edition of 1,000 copies. This compilation, as well as it's twin Пособие для начинающих: Глас Сéребра, were later released as the double CD The Golden Hare With A Voice Of Silver.

[edit] Song origins

"Panic" and "Solar Lodge" were originally released on Scatology. "First Dark Ride" was originally released on the 12" "Nasa Arab" as Coil vs. The Eskaton. The song was later released on Unnatural History III. "Further Back And Faster" was originally released on Love's Secret Domain. "Red Skeletons" and "Blue Rats" were originally released on A Thousand Lights In A Darkened Room as Black Light District. "Scope" was originally released on "Wrong Eye/Scope" and later released on Unnatural History III. "A.Y.O.R." was previously available in a slightly longer form on the bootleg Backwards. The song was later remade as "It's In My Blood" and released on The Ape Of Naples. "The First Five Minutes After Death" is incorrectly labeled "The First Five Minutes After Violent Death". "The First Five Minutes After Death" originally appeared on Horse Rotorvator - as did "The Anal Staircase" - and has a track timing of 4:45, while "The First Five Minutes After Violent Death" originally appeared on Gold Is The Metal With The Broadest Shoulders with a track timing of 2:43 due to a sequencing error, although the remastered/revised version is 5:00.
