Day 0535 - Treasure

Cocteau Twins "Treasure" (1984)

 
Another of those bands that I knew by name, but was left wondering what they sounded like.  The answer to that one it seems is: 'ethereal, shoegazer music, with sighing, crystal clear vocals, but which can occasionally switch to more propulsive energetic tunes".  Really good stuff.  I could see it having influenced a few 00s indie pop groups and maybe even some of the really early Smashing Pumpkins' dreamier material.

Really liked this one, and will keep an eye out for a copy.
