does anyone know a good cocteau twins merchandise shop,or rather a place i can get a cocteau twins teeshirt,ive been meaning to get one..thank you..

I want a T-shirt too, but I didn't like any of the ones I saw. Their stuff is hard to find.....try Ebay.

thanks for starting a thread on them I listened to Garlands today.....it's slowly becoming a favorite of mine. It used to be my second least favorite.

lately..ive been into the four cafe album(i think thats what it called..i mean it has the song bluebeard and wolf in the breast)..good album..your welcome the cocteau twins are truly a very unique band to come out of the shallow eighties..fraser has the voice of god...and i'll try ebay..thought i dont trust it much..i'll try..

Garlands definitely stands out from their others.....it has a totally different sound to it.....a lot darker. Maybe that's why I'm starting to become more drawn to it than I used to....as a whole. I've always loved "Hazel", "Garlands", "Wax and Wane" though.....my standout tracks. They were being compared to other bands when Garlands came out, so maybe that's why they changed their sound a little. As a whole Four Calendar Cafe isn't a high favorite.....I do like Know Who You are at Every Age a lot though..... "Evangeline" and "Bluebeard" are nice too

I am more partial to This Mortal Coil.

garlands..i loved the imagery that the lyrics and music portrayed..i mean everytime i hear the song "garlands" i imagine children running around playing hide and go seek,but in a garden while someone is falling becuase they are drugged.. ..."But Im Not"...is really surreal and and spooky like..i mean a tree that devours dead things or where people go to put thier deads things. Wax And Wane..danceable...and yet the lyrics feel like a irish folkore..i believe they are irish arent they?.all an all such a good album..

scottish I was laughing and thinking about the thread on here about favorite non-english speaking singers/artists.....I just thought about Liz Sometimes it baffles me that she's singing in English

rainbowchild said:

I only have It'll End in Tears because of Song to the Siren. I've been meaning to check out some more of their stuff.

AnckSuNamun said:

I love the whole album!!

I say try E-Bay. I may go hunting for a 4AD shirt there.

weepingwall said:

Check out the album It'll End in Tears as above.

Good luck. As time goes by, their stuff get more rare. My treasure is the singles box set.

I thought they were coming out with another album

BOOMshockaLockaBOOM said:

that's what it was.

weepingwall said:

I don't know what their problem is I wish they'd get it together.....Portishead too. I've been hearing rumors about them gettin' back together for another album too.
