Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by Cocteau Twins' Robin Guthrie, this shimmering EP perfectly captures the London group's transition into the epicenter of the emerging shoegaze movement. The tracks are heavily treated with lush chorus effects and swirling delays, completely engulfing Miki Berenyi and Emma Anderson's delicate vocal harmonies in a wall of ethereal noise. It remains one of the defining, essential releases of the early 4AD catalog.
