The Threshold HouseBoy's Choir is a musical guise for Peter Christopherson, announced in 2005 as a follow up endeavor to his former group Coil. Despite the misleading name, it is a solo project which relies heavily on computer generated vocals, of which he is formally credited as the 'director'. The name was derived from a play on words, combining the phrases 'house of boys', 'house choir', and 'Threshold House', the latter being the name of Coil's former headquarters, and official website. THBC is stationed in Krung Thep, Thailand[1].
