This was an extraordinary band. A bit of a niche following, the very definition of an "Indy " band. Tons and tons of critical acclaim but no real hits.
An incredible vocalist in Elizabeth Fraser, a voice sent by heaven, a lilting melodious sound that cascades over the listener. What she's singing about? ,no idea! But it sounds great.

This band is amazing.
These are a few of my favourite songs.
Yes, great choices. What an extraordinary voice she had, love to see them back in the groove. I just had a feeling listening to their final album, " Milk and Kisses", that it was over, it weren't great. Head Over Heels was my favourite, and Treasure. She also did some singing on 4AD release This Mortal Coil .
