Cocteau Twins
This is a great cd for anyone who needs to wind down after a hectic day...it takes you to another universe and is beautifully orchestrated.

Ethereal?
I bought the import version of this album,and it's the first record of Cocteau Twins that I ever got.I really didn't have any preparation to listen to it.I was still so surprised that it's so attractive though I had heard about the fame of 4AD.I remenbered that the style of Blue Bell Knoll was called Dream-pop or Ethereal Soundscape or any else,but I really didn't like those reluctant names.Cocteau Twins tried several new techniques besides their typical features,and you'd never realise that they even didn't use any synthesizers!The texture of the music was really misty but you could catch every note of it,maybe it's so ethereal but still you could follow it----This album is a beginning of Dream-pop I guess,leading the followings such as Blow of Swallow or Spooky of Lush.
I like this record that much and that's why I'd be so disappointed at the later records of Cocteau Twins.

Blue Bell Bubbily
I am a huge fan of this band. I saw them live several years ago at The Roseland Ballroom, A few of the songs from this album were played. I think that this album sounds a bit more modern that its predecessors. I love the tinny, bubbily, bouncy sounds and it creates a feeling of warmth throughout my body. I do not think there is an album I do not like.
