4.0 out of 5 stars The Post 4AD years..., 10 Mar 2006
By Jason Parkes "We're all Frankies'" (Worcester, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)   
Issued last December 'Lullabies to Violaine' was a limited edition four-disc box-set taking in Cocteau Twins' single releases through their brilliant career. Now this material has been reissued in a two volume, two disc form which makes available their singles work alongside the reissues of the albums proper in remastered form a few years ago.

The 27-tracks here take up Cocteau Twins story as they left 4AD after close to a decade and signed up to a major label. Many seemed to think they had climaxed with 1991's 'Heaven or Las Vegas' (probably true) and records such as 'Loveless', 'Just for a Day', 'Whirlpool' & the work of Thieves (...needs to be reissued!) seemed to advance on these climes.

This is a bit disingenuous - across these e.p.s' is some potent work, much of it superior to the studio albums released at the time. The in-demand 'Snow' single is included here - the covers of 'Winter Wonderland' and 'Frosty the Snowman' now alternative Xmas-standards. The acoustic reworkings on 'Twinlights' is interesting and an advance on the approach of the Raymonde-less 'Victorialand' LP. Likewise the 'Otherness' ep finds Mark Clifford recycling (remixing!) Twins works, taking in two recent songs alongside the older 'Feet Like Fins' (from 'Victorialand') & the opening track from 'Heaven or Las Vegas'- 'Cherry-Coloured Funk.' Like the remixes on the recent Luke Haines box-set, they are very much of their time and probably ought to be considered alongside work by the Drum Club, One Dove, Orbital, Polygon Window and Seefeel.The two closing eps 'Tishbite' and 'Violaine' are excellent, particularly the track 'Alice' - which like Mazzy Star's 'Rhymes of an Hour' would be used to stunning effect in Bernardo Bertolucci's kleenex-fest 'Stealing Beauty.'

Not as vital as the initial volume, Vol. 2 completes the picture and has plenty worth discovering here - a welcome cd issue making it possible to hear most of Cocteau Twins output now...

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant....Simply Brilliant, 29 April 2006
By D. West "coralsea1" (Hampshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Cocteau Twins were a complete one-off and thi is pure genius. Buy it while it is available....and at this price it has to be the steal of the century. Enjoy

5.0 out of 5 stars clasic-another must buy, 16 Jul 2009
a must buy-it contains many of the tracks on eps and singles from the later half of their career-and its excellent as u would expect-a must own album-excellent value too-and better than the other lullabies vol one twin cd album-
i love this-i already own the singles and ep box set but i bought these two violaine twins cds because its easier to play these than play endless singles and i only bought the singles and ep box set cos these violaine twin cd albums hadnt been released back then-anyway i love this album-i highly recomend it and know u will love it as i do
