I sure some of you are tired of reading reviews of Twinlights, but i felt i
had to get what i was feeling off of my chest. From what i had been reading
on several lists, i had no idea what to expect. What i did expect was a new
direction, since i have been listening to them since about 1984, and every
album hold something new; some new direction that they explore. I have to
say, though, that this EP took me by surprise. I absolutely love it. The
arrangements are delicate and well thought out, the mood is intimate and
warm, and that voice! This EP, I feel, showcases the best of the
ever-changing Cocteau Twins. Even the artwork is facinating. They have
stated that this EP is not their 'new' sound, but i would love if they did a
full album in this style. 'Otherness' will have a new direction; 'Milk and
Kisses' will have a direction...and so on...and so on...that's what I love
about CT...you can't pigeonhole them...
Ok...to answer David's question:

I don't know the Cocteau Twins as well online here as I know others are,
but in my opinion, the best Twins albums are...
1) Blue Bell Knoll
2) The Pink Opaque
3) Treasure
4) Moon and the Melodies

Some how I doubt it. Mark K. wishes he was the tortured soul he trys to make
him self to be. He's more of a sorry soul and creates his own problems. I'm
surprised someone hasn't slapped him silly and told him to get over his big
bad self.

When they toured in Europe during the spring of 1981, they used some
introfilm instead of a support-act, I remember hearing the "soundtrack"
to this short film was put on the b-side of the cassette-version of Faith.

April '95. It's not found anywhere else.

It isn't, but it could be added to the US version, I suppose.

I think I saw a mention of it among the upcoming releases in AP, but all I
know is that it'll be out before the end of the year, on Drag City, if I
recall correctly.

So who left, exactly? Simon and Nick? And who are the new members, if any?

this people thinks it is a good release, the tune "vow" hit me as one
of the great listens first time type tunes. Angelfish is so much
better in this gig, her group's release last year was sorta lame,
IMNSHO. "Queer" is another catchy tune. And while i wouldn't call
this brilliant it is very strong, and that's a good thing these days.
Butch did a nice job, kudos...

I have both "Carnage Visors" and all their B-sides from "Standing on a
Beach", plus a couple of b-sides from Disintegration ("Late" and another),
on an import compilation called "The Cure B-sides 1979-1989: The Complete
Collection" (er something to that effect, it's at home now...). If you'd
like the exact title, send me email.

There have been several comments on here about when things are coming,
particularly the Mojave LP. Here are the release dates that I know (all UK)
Amps ep - 9th Oct '95
Scheer ep - 9th Oct '95
Air Miami ep - 16th Oct '95
Mojave LP - 16th Oct '95
Air Miami LP - 30th Oct '95
Amps LP - 30th Oct '95
Whether there will be any other releases in '95 is doubtful. There may be a new
Lush ep before Christmas. Early '96 will see LPs from Heidi Berry, Scheer, Lush,
Dead Can Dance, His Name Is Alive and Lisa Germano.

The new member is Chris, he plays piano, keyboards and is Rachel's
fiancee. He's from Toronto, I met the two of them one night when they
were in Toronto, very nice couple they were.

how about "world cup fever" by air miami and "the official colourbox world

they're another "corporate rock" band. not that all major label stuff is
bad. i just think it's funny that i keep seeing them pegged as a Madison
band (butch vig is from Madison) when i don't ever remember them playing
here. that's my beef with garbage. then again, i could be wrong.

But it IS complicated existentially speaking: Harold Budd wrote about two
thirds of the album.
Anyway, while we're not being existentially complicated, the best Cocteau
Twins album is Lifeforms 1-7. :)

Ok, sorry - stupid question that has been answered before.
Who do I make my time stereo check out to - time stereo, record
collector, or someone else?
Thanks,
