Stolen & Contaminated Songs was the first of two albums recorded and produced by the band Coil in 1992. This CD includes outtakes and unreleased songs from Love's Secret Domain album.

The first edition (LOCI4) had a different cover and came without info of any kind, except for a small numbered flyer stating "This is stolen and contaminated songs". Some copies have a paper sticker on the back of the CD jewel box with the band name, album title (with "1991 e.v." underneath), track list, an address for World Serpent Distribution and a UPC bar code. The later release changed the titles of all of the songs from this edition, albeit with some only having different punctuation.

Although track one is listed as "Futher" its actual title is supposed to be "Further", as the track is a variation on "Further Back and Faster" from the Love's Secret Domain sister album.
