Squinting into the neon-lit penny arcades and draining an after hours glass with the displaced and dispossessed once the power is pulled, The Coral's latest caper concerns listeners with the light, shade, thrills and profound melancholy of coastal palaces packed with fun and fright. Both now and then, or perhaps never as fiction encroaches on reality, the feverous anticipation of a night amongst the screams, fights and romance of the fair become part of life on the newly-built 'Coral Island'. Welcoming travellers one trepidous step at a time, 'Faceless Angel' sits amongst a series of promised audio visual portraits of and inspired by the Island's inhabitants. Conceived and created by artist, Edwin Burdis, the single's video was filmed 'on' Coral Island itself, a sprawling diorama purpose-built inside a deserted Chinese restaurant in Cardiff.
