Cocteau Twins reissue final album ‘Milk & Kisses’ on vinyl
Cocteau Twins have announced that their final studio album ‘Milk & Kisses’ is to receive an official re-release.The album was first released in March 1996 via Fontana Records in the UK and was their eighth LP, including the fan-favourite tracks ‘Tishbite’, ‘Violane’ and ‘Eperdu’.The group did re-convene two years later, with the intention of recording their next full-length, but the sessions fell through, and no further albums were made.The re-issued version of the album is available to order now here, and is presented in audiophile 140gm vinyl by Proper Records, in collaboration with Universal Music Recordings. The labels say they have paid “scrupulous attention to the detail of the original UK first pressings”.Last September, the band’s vocalist Elizabeth Fraser had an asteroid named after her by the International Astronomical Union.“It does not pose a threat to humankind and will not collide with Earth for millions of years,” the Union noted, reassuringly.
