About this playlist

The Cocteau Twins have inspired many indie acts with their mix of other-worldly vocals and atmospheric soundscapes that morphed from gritty post-punk to crystalline dream pop. Shoegazers Slowdive and Lush draw upon Robin Guthrie's guitar work, while Björk, Harriet Wheeler of The Sundays, and Jónsi Birgisson of Sigur Rós emulate Elizabeth Fraser's amazing, often operatic vocals.
