I had known of them for a year or more before I ever heard them.. The record store in the student union at Mankato State had an import selection kept in a locked case. Cocteau Twins CDs always seemed to be featured.

We never wax steady we wax and wane.
This one hits a little harder. Very faithful cover but with Deftone’s drummer handling the rhythm where I’m certain the ‘Twins used a machine.

Echodrone is definitely one of my favorite bands. I have been listening to them since I rediscovered bands were still making Shoegaze in the 2000s. They just released Music for 6 Musicians I think on the 27th, and today I noticed Apple Music recommended the new album to me. I bought it 4 tracks in, and basically listened to it twice straight through.
I’m at the point in my Animal Crossing New Horizon’s play where I take everything to Cyrus to see what’s possible. I haven’t thought of everything, yet.

I found out about this song reading a Wikipedia entry about another possibly infamous performance art track that stole or borrowed heavily from it. I wish I had known about Sleeper in Metropolis sooner. This is very much a product of its era, released in 1983, and now I have another artist's entire career to explore.
