cocteau twins?... :unsure:

 

Mate, they're Goth/Indie.... :lol:

 

But they will be featuring very prominently in my upcoming "Grim's Top 50 Fave Indie/Alt Tunes"... So stay tuned for that one.... :)

oh...I absolutely ADORE Cocteau Twins.... been having a reappraisal of their stuff of late - and it still sounds fantastic.

 

Treasure and Heaven or Las Vegas are my faves - but they're all pretty faultless.

i dont know much about them, thought they fitted your style and might have released a dancy type track... it was a guess! lol

I thought of Aphex Twin on the bus on the way home yesterday! :lol:

 

I only know Windowlicker though :(

Come To Daddy's fantastic - I'd find it a bit hard to dance to though ;)

...their last album was a kind of trance/ambient one.... you should definitely check them out, Rob, I think you'd be mightily impressed. :thumbup:

Okay, here it is.... And Aly was right..... :thumbup:

 

NUMBER ONE - THE APHEX TWIN - COME TO DADDY

 

An absolutely amazing piece of music this is, genuinely fukked up, totally disturbing and really quite sinister... The video by Chris Cunningham is one of the greatest Promo videos ever made, and that is just a fukkin' fact... A true work of art and the absolute perfect marriage of sound and imagery that has ever been committed to film...

 

The Aphex Twin is one of our true originals, there is absolutely NO ONE who makes or really has ever made music quite like his (you could perhaps count the likes of Merzbow, Alec Empire, Luke Vibert or Alex Paradinas as peers...), his obsessive, compulsive and isolationist approach to music has ensured that he's always stayed streets ahead of anyone else... Oh, and he drives around Cornwall in a TANK!!! :lol: :lol:

Fantastic #1!! My fav is "Girl Boy Sing" but that #1 would definitely be an anti-climactic end to your chart!

'Come To Daddy'.

 

Not my personal cup of tea, but I am not gonne argue with such a wicked video like that (and I must atleast give you some brownie points for not choosing the unbelivable $h!te 'Windowlicker' - c**p track, c**p video - so stupidly over-rated!)
