Treasure Hiding: The Fontana Years
MusicBrainz Douban Eggplant.place
Overview
UK four CD set. The Cocteau Twins' latter-period work - spanning the years 1993 to 1996 - are compiled this fall on this 53-track box set that includes the dreampop icons' final two albums plus two discs' worth of B-sides, EP tracks, live radio sessions and rarities. The set's first two discs include the studio albums Four-Calendar Café (1993) and Milk & Kisses (1996), while the latter two discs round up songs appearing on the six EPs and singles released during that span, along with radio sessions and a couple rarities. The collection comes in a sturdy box with a booklet that includes photos, sleeves notes by Chris Roberts and a discography. The collection pulls together the music the Cocteaus - guitarist Guthrie, singer Elizabeth Fraser and bassist Simon Raymonde - recorded for Fontana Records after leaving the 4AD label.
