Product description

This re-issue of the Cocteau Twins' 1993 album has been remastered by Robin Guthrie and is pressed onto high quality 140g vinyl

Cocteau Twins vocalist Elizabeth Fraser, guitarist Robin Guthrie, and bassist Simon Raymonde, formed in Grangemouth, Scotland in the late 70s. The brainchild of Guthrie and original bassist Will Heggie, by 1981 they had added Fraser and the following year signed to 4AD, one of the most illustrious of the indie labels. With Raymonde replacing Heggie in 1983, the trio went on to create some of the most unique and otherworldly music of the 80s, built around Guthrie's chiming guitar and Fraser's unmistakable soprano.

By the early 90s, the group had just released their most successful album, the commercial Heaven or Las Vegas, but the relationship with 4AD was coming to an end. Mercury imprint Fontana was going through something of a purple patch, signing former underground bands, and by 1992, Cocteau Twins had joined The Fall and the House Of Love.

The group's debut album for Fontana, Four-Calendar Cafe, was released in October 1993. Its gossamer melodies and largely upbeat pop bely the turmoil the group were going through. Barney Hoskyns, writing in Mojo, said that Four-Calendar Café was "the most poignant, heartrending Cocteaus record of all, an album of naked confession and raw beauty . . . Sadness never sounded so luscious." Simon Raymonde agreed: "I think in time people will realise what a great album Four-Calendar Café is. Because I think it's beautiful." Led by the single Evangeline, the reached No 13 in the UK album chart and is much-loved by fans.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Album...
    Reviewed in the United States on 5 May 2024

    Just received and laid it down for a spin...It is flat, virtually noise free, and sounds damn good. Just wish they would've lined the inner cardboard housing with poly or a separate poly sleeve inside to minimize the paper scuffs in transit and dust. Luckily, mine has only a little lite scuffing that does not effect play. Plus, the MP3's to boot...

    4.0 out of 5 stars Curta um som viajante com esta banda incomparável
    Reviewed in Brazil on 16 May 2025
    Verified Purchase
    O produto veio só numa sacola plástica, sem o tradicional papelão protetor! Felizmente, o (a) entregador (a) teve cuidado e o LP, capa e encarte estavam perfeitos. Já eu voltei com ele no ônibus preocupada de quebrar.
    Quanto ao som, o Cocteau Twins foi uma banda escocesa surgida no pós-punk e que tomou um rumo do que hoje se chama "dream pop". Seu diferencial era Elizabeth Frazer, a vocalista de 200 vozes, e Robin Guthrie, com sua guitarra com 200 sons e texturas. Este disco é bem mais acessível do que os anteriores e talvez agrade um público maior pela suavidade.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Why do we have to put a title is beyond me because I never know what to write
    Reviewed in Canada on 2 December 2014

    I love early Cocteau Twins but this is to me Robin Guthrie and Elizabeth Frazer's pinnacle. The atmospheric coldness is leaving in favor of lushy instrumentations, summerly ambiance but without taking off the deep melancholic tone of the former albums and there is « Evangeline » and « Evangeline » is simply one of the Cocteau Twin's most beautiful composition that they ever made. If you don't agree, go drink a beer or a Piña Colada because I have nothing else to add.

    Erano anni che cercavo questo album dei Cocteau Twins: so che non è considerato il loro capolavoro, ma io lo trovo di una dolcezza e di una magica atmosfera uniche. La Fraser è bravissima come sempre. Bellissimo.
