Cocteau Twins - Garlands

Garlands is the debut album by Scottish band Cocteau Twins, released in 1982 by 4AD.

With a dense and atmospheric sound, the record explores post-punk textures with gothic overtones and a bold experimental edge. Processed guitars, minimal drum patterns, and Elizabeth Fraser’s distinctive vocals create an immersive and shadowy soundscape, marking the beginning of one of the most influential acts in the British alternative scene.
