Head Over Heels

Head Over Heels is the second studio album by Cocteau Twins, originally released in 1983 on 4AD and marking Elizabeth Fraser and Robin Guthrie’s first record as a duo after Will Heggie's departure. Famed for Guthrie's lush guitar textures and Fraser's ethereal, wordless vocals, the album weaves Sugar Hiccup and Musette and Drums into a dreamlike, archetypal ethereal wave sound. This 2018 4AD vinyl reissue is remastered from the original analog tapes and includes a digital download, offering a fresh presentation of the classic for new listeners and longtime fans. Head Over Heels remains a defining entry in the Cocteau Twins' catalog, shaping later dream pop and indie rock through its intimate atmosphere and otherworldly melodies.
