"this is the best thing when and only when you're in the mood for the production"
with this style of music I'm always in the mood for the production though
"Head Over Heels is the worst album of their classic run tbh, has a pretty distinct intrigue for suer but in a largely halfbaked way"
disagreed hard, it has so many great songs that work as both stand-alone and in the album's context

Bump for The Spangle Maker, oh my what a track, and it is a b-side! !!!! !!!!!!!
|

yeah spangle maker climax is so good, and I like that the rest of the song is sort of cast in a new light after you realize "where it's going/it went"

not saying it would be better or worse but I can’t help but wonder

Yeah that's an interesting question! It'd be different for sure.
And agreed with "and I like that the rest of the song is sort of cast in a new light after you realize "where it's going/it went", totally. That climax is insane!

Chris Ott talks about the role of the shitty drum machine in cocteau's aesthetic in his shoegaze vids. some dumb takes in those vids too but I think the sort of uncanny effect of a shittyish drum machine (generally) utterly submerged in other, generally more vibrant sounds is key to coctoooooo

Super true. It works to create that non-boring magical dreamy effect.
