I’ve loved the recordings of THIS MORTAL COIL ever since the first recording was released back in 1984. You’re right about it being a SUPERGROUP. It was a conglomeration of different bands from the 4AD label including Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance, Wolfgang Press and others. SONG TO THE SIREN, the song you feature here, is one of my favorites. Glad you added it. :-)

Thanks for that informative comment on the background of the group – I remember Cocteau Twins!
