4AD
This Mortal Coil's debut album It'll End In Tears (1984) forged the template; helping to crystallise 4AD's emerging signature sound whilst shining a light on some of their stable with Cocteau Twins, Colourbox, Dead Can Dance and The Wolfgang Press all involved. The line-up was completed by arranger Martin McCarrick, violinist Gini Ball, Howard Devoto of Buzzcocks / Magazine fame and Cindytalk's Gordon Sharp.
One of the best Dream Pop albums ever, a moment which "catalysed 4AD's ascendance from the stilted poetics of goth rock to the kings of gauzy transcendence."
