COCTEAU TWINS HEAVEN OR LAS VEGAS Limited Vinyl LP
Overview:
· The celebrated last two albums Cocteau Twins released on 4AD will finally be back in the vinyl racks soon. The first time either have been pressed since release, both will come on heavyweight black vinyl and are being cut from brand-new HD 96/24 masters.
· ‘Heaven Or Las Vegas’ followed in 1990 and was to become
their most commercially successful release, reaching Number 7 in the UK Album Charts. Numerous publications have since
declared it one of the best albums of the 90s, with Pitchfork calling it “a core of ungodly gorgeous songs that is every bit as moving and relevant today as it ever was.” Label founder Ivo Watts-Russell goes further, candidly revealing in the recent 4AD biography ‘Facing The Other Way’ that this album wasn’t just his favourite Cocteaus album but also his favourite all-time 4AD album and, “by a long shot,” calling it “the perfect record.” With tracks as majestic as the title track, ‘Cherry-Coloured Funk’ and ‘Iceblink Luck’, who’s to argue?
