There are two ways to listen to the Cocteau Twins. One is to just let the music wash over you, not caring about anything but the sounds. Given singer Elizabeth Frasers habit of turning words into nothing but sounds, its not like you have a choice. However, you should also call up the lyrics and read along because she can be a sharp, funny, incisive writer. Heaven Or Las Vegas is the bands most acclaimed record and dream pop has rarely sounded this dreamy, but if you dont have much patience for anything twee then look elsewhere.
