Goddess. Love her.
Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

"Cocteau Twins established themselves as one of the three main pillars of British alternative music, alongside New Order and the Smiths."

That might be overstating it a bit.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

I think thats pretty accurate (if you include the Bunnymen). The Cocteaus had a huge following in the UK in the early to mid 80's.

Love Cocteau Twins

I have all their albums myself but I never had them up there with the Bunnymen. Better than New Order though.

Cocteau Twins are amazing, but definitely something you have to be in the mood for.
