ah, that was right on the cusp of their transformation. i had their first two, 'idylls' and 'ardor', which were just pure cocteauish ethereal/shoegazer. lovely stuff, but their best was the opening track on a projekt compilation, IMO. it's always exciting watching a band evolve so radically. another one like that was seefeel. weren't they kind of a shoegazer/indie rock band before they were on warp for the one release? then cocteau twins themselves followed suit somewhat, getting an electronic remix ep or something that freaked out the goths and new agers. the most radical change to electronic music had to be ulver. there were hints on 'marriage of heaven and hell' (bits of electronic drums thrown in here and there), but when they did 'metamorphosis' and then 'perdition city' they just cut all ties to their black metal past. it was amazing and brave, especially for that scene. d. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

id have to put "sideways forest" as their "cusp" CD, as that is when they really started fooling around w/knobs... dont know if that one got much play tho, but i think the breaks in 'flux' were pretty widely accepted [i had a lot of spooky friends in those days - funny to watch kids in black lipstick nodding their heads to breakbeats.] funny story, a subsitute teacher in my senior year of high school [im pretty sure it was a math class] was wearing a love spirals downward shirt... i commented on it after class ["cool shirt!"]. turns out the sub was ryan lum from LSD. saw them perform less than a week later in hollywood and did a double take when i saw my teacher behind the sampler.
