Music older than Cocteau Twins that reminds you of them?
Obviously, it's easy to recommend music similar to Cocteau Twins when it comes to artists that were influenced by them. But what about music that came before Cocteau Twins that shares some similar qualities, or that remind you of CT for any reason?
Here's a few that came to my mind, I might add some more later:
Linda Perhacs - Chimacum Rain: The high ethereal voice, and the way she blends different lines of melody
Gianfranco Plenizio feat. Edda Dell’Orso - Voce D'Amore: The operatic-but-not-really-opera type of voice coupled with lush instrumentation and a moody atmosphere
Milton Nascimento & Lo Borges - Paisagem Da Janela: The "shimmering" quality of the main guitar riff, and the mix of joyful/nostalgic mood kind of reminds me of songs like Wolf in the Breast
Beto Guedes - A Pagina do Relâmpago Elétrico: When the drums finally kick in, the 3/4 rhythm and the driving energy reminds me a little of Ups. And his voice is stunning!
These Trails - El Rey Pescador: The vocal interplay, the melody, I can imagine Liz singing it, although she probably wouldn't be singing "pa ba da ba da" but something more mysterious :)
