The Coil of Sihn is an American band formed in St. Louis, Missouri in 2002 by Sihn Starr Rossi.
The only official member of The Coil of Sihn is singer/producer/multi-instrumentalist Sihn Starr Rossi, who always remained solely responsible for COS's musical direction (he is, however, supported in concert by a regular backing band).
Sihn reports that from the age of four to sixteen he was abused and molested by many people, including members of his own family. With influences as diverse as Nine Inch Nails, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Judas Priest, ELO, Velvet Acid Christ, Marilyn Manson and Depeche Mode, Sihn dealt with his past by creating music, artwork, poetry, and prose:
- "i use my scars to show people that have been through similar circumstances that you can have your own life...you can have your own normal...what has been taken is great but, what can be taken back is far greater than..."[citation needed]

Sihn Starr Rossi is the only constant member of the band. When recording, Rossi performs on all the instruments and writes all of the lyrical content. He also creates all of the artwork for the album covers and controls the entire direction of the music.
