Speaking of Pandora (a couple of posts back), the Cocteau Twins also sang about a Pandora in the 80's. However, it sure wasn't about the girlfriend of Adrian Mole. "Pandora" was from the Cocteau Twins' third album 'Treasure'- an album that was the template for their sound thereafter. They were as unique as you could get, even in a period when the indie scene was ever changing and developing quickly from the punk roots. Maybe only Sigur Ros' Jonsi would bear comparison to Elizabeth Fraser's ethereal and cathedral style of singing... they even share the made-up language similarities. A real Treasure.
