The Best of the Cocteau Twins' Early Works on 180g Audiophile Vinyl LP!
Remastered from HD Audio!

Back in 1986, The Pink Opaque brought together the best of the Cocteau Twins' early works to become their first official release in the US. Already a cult band on college radio, some classics like "Pearly-Dewdrops' Drops" and "Aikea-Guinea" were given new mixes for this release, while it also featured "Millimillenary," the first run-out for incoming band member Simon Raymonde. To this day, it remains a great entry point to a wonderful band.

None of the ten tracks had been released in America before, but whoever assembled the release knew exactly what they were doing in terms of whetting appetites....The Pink Opaque is a lovely taster for anyone wanting to discover the peerless early years of the Cocteaus.
-Ned Raggett, AllMusic.com, 4.5/5 stars
