INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD.

Cocteau Twins

Floaty is a word right? Well it is now because it’s the best way to describe a lot of the Cocteau Twins’ music. The airy vocals of Elizabeth Fraser are often unintelligible, as they weave through pop instrumentals that somehow feel like they’ve been softened with powder. The combination of their atmospheric and garbled guitars, bells, hammering drums and the operatic vocals are really unique and give the band a place only they occupy. If you haven’t listened to them before, it’s time for you to discover the strange awesomeness of this band.
