I don't revisit their music often, but when I do, I realise there will never be any artist like them.

"Garlands" is extremely dark and cold, but their darkest and gloomiest songs are on "Head Over Heels": "When Mama Was Moth" is petrifying, "Five Ten Fiftyfold" is emotionaly devastating and "Tinderbox" is just evil.

The massive sound of this album literally intimidated Brian Eno so much that he refused to produce Treasure for Cocteau Twins, saying that they didn't really need him.

My favorite of theirs....at this point in time. But with Cocteau Twins it's hard not to fall in love with different albums/songs depending on your mood.

yes, the different albums have different aesthetics, but overall, this imo is Cocteau Twins at their best, a perfect meld of their early post-punk style and the later ethereal, dream pop style.

While I'm listening to and engulfed by Head Over Heels I'm thinking, THIS IS IT. THIS IS THE ONE. This is the BEST Cocteau album, maybe THE best album by ANYONE. But when the album finishes I remember I think and feel that way while listening to basically every Cocteau album. So. Idk. It's way up there though.

Today I bought this album in old local shop. Head Over Heels is hot. Ethereal structures, nostalgic wave guitars... Pure bliss for the end of summer.

I remember not being particularly keen on this album at first, but it certainly has grown on me. It's really good.
