Panic/Tainted Love is a 12" released in 1985 - and later on in 1990, a CD - single by Coil.
The Tainted Love section of the album includes a cover of the song "Tainted Love", originally performed by Gloria Jones and then to become popular again around 1981 after a synthpop cover-version was released by Soft Cell. (Marc Almond from Soft Cell was also featured in the music video for the song, and would eventually go on to guest on Coil's next album, Horse Rotorvator.)
The first pressing of this release featured a textured sleeve, with the first 1000 copies also being produced on red vinyl.
"Aqua Regis" is truncated from the version on Scatology. "Panic" is a rearranged. "Tainted Love" is exactly as it appears on Scatology.
All profits from the sale of this release were donated to the AIDS charity the Terrence Higgins Trust. It was the first AIDS benefit music release.
