This Mortal Coil: It'll end in tears: :1984:

The debut release of this indie superstar outfit shined! (and still does to this day) in it's glorious emotional beauty...just how can it be so beautiful?..the listener wonders.
The project was put together by 4AD guru Ivo Watts-Russell, which includes groundbreaking UK bands such as Cocteau Twins, Magazine,Dead Can Dance. Considering the Songs are from Musical legends,such as 'Tim Buckley'(the haunting 'song to the siren'),'Alex Chilton' of Big Star,
(the devastating 'Holocaust' and the heartbreakingly beautiful 'Kangaroo')..also Colin Newman of Wire ('not me')you're bound to come up with something that will be remembered& cherished by the 'old-school goths. Production of this album is amazing,the album in all ,is emotional,hypnotic and astonishingly beautifully crafted.
