Aikea-Guinea
by Cocteau Twins
Released as an independent single between major album cycles, this incredibly lush project continues to distance the trio from their darker gothic rock roots. Robin Guthrie’s chiming guitar tone heavily mimics the swirling effect of a synthesizer, perfectly wrapping around Elizabeth Fraser’s soaring vocal acrobatics. It proved to be a significant alternative club hit, further solidifying their undisputed reign over the ethereal pop landscape.
