Agreed, I'm still so happy I stumbled upon it a few years back
My favorite is still Cherry Coloured Funk, with Iceblink Luck being a strong second

youtube.com
Eli Cruz
fuck yeah dude, they have a string of consistently perfect EPs from Spangle Maker to Love's Easy Tears
Kevin Martin
this
Leo Green
Is this the purest, most life-affirming song ever recorded?
Luis Baker
Not even the best Cocteau Twins album.
Grayson Turner
There are no Grimes songs that come anywhere close to even some of the filler tracks on The Moon And Melodies.
Cocteau Twins is a perfect band.
Also, why no love for Fifty Fifty Clown? That and I Wear Your Ring are my shit even though Cherry Coloured Funk IS probably the best song.
Luis Young

>you will never see Cocteau Twins live

It's hard to even imagine that this music was made by actual human beings. It's so uncontaminated and sublime.
Jonathan Anderson
Ivo was nuts for not getting Liz on more This Mortal Coil tracks.
youtube.com
Carter Gray
Yep. One of the best albums of all time.
Euphoria by Insides is also a Dream Pop favourite of mine though.

James Diaz
>giving a shit about lyrics
James Barnes
*the most boring dream pop album of all time.
Still can't believe I listened to you 3 years ago and checked it out. I listened to the actual good CT albums recently (Treasure, Head Over Heels, Victorialand) and still after liking them and giving this another shot the above statement holds true. Why is this such a meme? Is it the good title?
Thomas Sullivan
you'd get fucked up if you said that shit in my neighborhood, pal.
Noah Mitchell
Blue Bell Knoll shits on those "actual good" CT albums you just listed.
Noah Martin
do you like the albums after this/blue bell knoll?
David Johnson
I don't have any problems with the lyrics. I think most of them are pretty interpretable, which I often like. But It may be different if you're a native English speaker, I don't know.
Nathaniel Campbell
nah just those I listed + the 1985's EP I can't be bothered to check the name of. Is it worth it or just a transition album to Heaven?
Evan Cooper
What did you like on other CT albums that you felt was missing on Heaven or Las Vegas?
Henry Edwards
Blue Bell Knoll is my 2nd favorite Cocteau Album of the 4-5 I've heard. My first is HoLV. BBK has Liz in her element as a vocalist.
Daniel Ramirez
both
Michael Hernandez
*meant to say I've just heard those I listed, whoops
Jace Baker
That's literally an nth rate early New Order clone.
Jaxson Brown
shit taste
Carter Morgan
If I had to pinpoint it I'd say the drums and impacts of those just sound much better on Treasure and the like. Production just sounds "richer" and they're trying to make music that's not just "for chill in the background" if that doesn't sound too vile. Something like Persephone also doesn't exist on HOVL to my knowledge. But it's just that I like all of the songs on Treasure since their all unique in their spectrum where I can't find a song I like on HOLV
Juan Thompson
1. Heaven Or Las Vegas
2. Fotzepolitic
3. Cherry-Coloured Funk
4. Iceblink Luck
5. Pur
6. Carolyn's Fingers
7. Know Who You Are At Every Age
8. The Itchy Glowbo Blow
9. Summerhead
10. Alice
Nicholas Smith
then you'll enjoy blue bell knoll a lot more
the love's easy tears and spangle maker EPs are really quick and all great songs
Justin Ortiz
Unironically the best top 5 without explanation ive seen.
Robert Reyes
>If I had to pinpoint it I'd say the drums and impacts of those just sound much better on Treasure and the like. Production just sounds "richer"
wtf...The drums on Treasure sounds way too metallic and the production as a whole sounds cold, where HOLV have a great warmth to the production.
Tyler Thompson
>The drums on Treasure sounds way too metallic
(not that guy) Well that's an element of ethereal wave and Cocteau Twins were one of the pioneers of that genre, nothing strange there.
Kevin Taylor
>wtf...The drums on Treasure sounds way too metallic and the production as a whole sounds cold
THATS EXACTLY WHY I PREFER TREASURE
Eli Brooks
Only one great song
Carson Sullivan
>BBK has Liz in her element as a vocalist.
Her performance on Carolyn's Fingers is absolutely insane.
Caleb Kelly
1. Heaven or Las Vegas
2. Euphoria
3. Shimmering, Warm & Bright
4. Wings of Joy
5. Reading, Writing and Arithmetic
Souvlaki is more Shoegaze to me.
Nathaniel Hill
>production as a whole sounds cold
Thats exactly why its so damn good
Samuel Sanchez
how is RWaA not jangle pop??
Connor Thompson
To each his own I guess
I classify Jangle Pop as an under-genre to Indie pop, and in my opinion The Sundays are more dreamy than regular indie Pop.
But I agree it's jangly as fuck.
Isaac Kelly
>Shimmering, Warm & Bright
Bel Canto is underrated as heck
Jeremiah Turner
100% Agreed

Sebastian Green
if you like dream pop then listen to mew - frengers and tell me what you think
Logan Price
I always loved Fade Into You, but never bothered to check this album out.. I'll give it a try now
Joshua Roberts
not even close to being true dude
>Bells Ring (also the best song on the album)
>Five String Serenade
>Blue Light
>So Tonight That I Might See
Bentley Phillips
It's much more Indie Pop than Dream Pop, but luckily I like the former very much too. Both Frengers and And The Glass Handed Kites are great albums.
Jaxson Martinez
Lazy Clam is best Cocteaux song
The purest dream pop, it feels like melting into buttery, molten ice cream
Eli Howard
lol what
Josiah Martinez
what are some dream pop or shoegaze that has a sort of syrupy saccharine sound like BBK/HOLV-era Cocteau Twins? something that might give me diabetes just by listening to it
Nathan Jones
Now this comment is something interesting that could be sent to neuroscientists for research. Like how you just connected the sound of certain music to certain taste. Why is that so? Does during eating of sugary food those taste buds activate same part of brain as does dream pop of BBK/HOLV? Hmmm
Mason Wilson
Robert Foster
Did you even have literature classes in high school, user?

Ryder Butler
obviously
Noah Murphy
I love this album, but I'd like to find more ambient pop
Austin Ward
Underrated fav of mine
Brayden Barnes
I guess you've heard Earwig - Under My Skin I Am Laughing?
youtube.com
Basically the same band.
His Name Is Alive - Livonia is great in my opinion too. youtube.com
I remember when this came on on my mp3 while delivering morning paper in a dark apartment house 8 years ago. That was pretty scary.
You could also check out 1 Mile North - Minor Shadows

Eli Nelson
You can both look up Northern Picture Library - Alaska. Pretty Ambient and you'll get a crippling diabetes.

Nathan Williams
This was supposed to be an answer to this
Brandon Williams
>this complete lack of appreciation for the best track, Pitch The Baby
Angel Moore
it's not dream pop, but the Strawberry Switchblade LP is sickeningly sweet.
