Tim's Listening Party: The Cocteau Twins' sixth studio album Heaven or Las Vegas on Twitter in the early hours of Saturday 4 April 2020.
Tonight from 1am we have a listening party in conjunction with the loveliest man in showbiz @Tim Burgess and his #TimsListeningParty.
Join Simon Raymonde @mrsimonraymonde and Tim Burgess to talk through the seminal Cocteau Twins album.
Heaven or Las Vegas is the sixth studio album by Scottish alternative rock band Cocteau Twins, released on 17 September 1990 by 4AD.
“One of the things that’s a stand-out in my memory was a little party we had just at the end, when all the mixing had been done and it had been sequenced—and there was a whole bunch of our mates over [to listen to it for the first time] and part of you is just looking at how they’re reacting… What’s the worst thing in the world? You’re playing somebody a new song and twenty seconds into it they start talking—about themselves, usually. Well, this was 40 minutes of just silence and mouths open. That, for me, was a very powerful moment. It was like, whoa, it’s a goodie.” ROBIN GUTHRIE
A few folks asking how these work. They’re really easy:
Nowt complicated. That’s it!
Want to see a past listening party in action to see what to expect? On Saturday 28 March 2020 we hosted Paul Arthurs @BoneheadsPage who talked us through Oasis classic Definately Maybe.
