Really-From: woiccare@pebbles.sct.clarkson.edu dick sez: > I caught part of the new Cocteau Twins single last night -- it sounds > remarkably "commercial", but not in a negative way... What to others > think? yeah - i agree...i recorded the song ("iceblink luck") of wfmu earlier this evening (all jerseyites listening - it was my fault). my initial reaction was "god, sounds like chryssie hynde joined the sundays and fused themselves into liz, simon and robin". but seriously, i can hear those sounds in there while it is still the twins. very similar to the sound on _blue bell knoll_, and yeah, commerical in a nice sorta way. with a video, pomo emptv will eat it up...which is kinda strange. in a neat kind of way. album comes out sept 17th on capitol records...and they touring in november!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (happy) woj
