This retrospective is not quite career spanning–after parting company with 4AD in 1990, the Cocteau Twins recorded two more albums for Fontana before calling it a day. However, not only did they record the overwhelming majority of their best work for 4AD, they enjoyed a relationship with the label whose symbiotic closeness has had few parallels: opaque and mysterious on record, funny and fond of a drink off it, the Cocteau Twins were always the definitive 4AD act.
