Treasure

Modern opera?

Garbage wish I could give 0 if I could. Not a treasure

Wow it aged so bad

Absolutely unbearable.

No likey.

Just no

Sometimes a bit cringe but otherwise great

Real whiny sounding, just high and shrill - not my favorite.

I don’t want to know what kind of person willfully turns this shit on to listen to.

I don’t get it. I don’t like it.

Boring

Yeah this was some weird stuff

This was incredibly boring.

What the hell is this crap anyway

2/10

Droning

Not by cup of tea

Bad lol.

This album sounds like someone locked a banshee in a cathedral and recorded her trying to remember the lyrics to a song she heard once in a dream. It’s like they handed a reverb pedal a record deal and said, “Go nuts.” I don’t know what language the singer is using—maybe Elvish? Maybe baby talk? Either way, it’s not working. Every track blends together into a swirl of unintelligible wailing and echo-soaked guitar noodles. It's the musical equivalent of trying to read a foggy mirror. I know some folks call this “ethereal.” I call it “unlistenable.” Just awful. No other way to describe it.

Bjork’ish.

i do not like this

Not quite

It was fine I suppose, but I do not enjoy that kind of music.

The whispy singing gives me the feeling of breathlessness. Can't stand it.

esti que c'est plate

Not really my jam, that was all pretty terrible.

Pretty good if you want a woman yelling nonsense in your ear for 41 minutes.

Furchtbare Aneinanderreihung von Tönen. Schreckliche Stimme. Das Gequietsche nervt.

I guess the saying "one mans trash is another mans treasure" works both ways.

Not for me.

I didn’t really like this at all. Way too dreamy. Seems like a stream of conscience with no real focus. The vocals are nearly impossible to hear they are buried so far in the mix.

I have to quit reading the Spotify profiles and Wikipedia entries for these albums before I've listened all the way through because I am not able to separate my evaluations from what is written. The lyrics are literally nonsense words. This album apparently influenced later "shoegaze" music which is a genre I just now learned existed and am also pretty sure I will not be a fan of. A girl making up silly wordless songs over "dreampop" (another genre I just learned about) is not an alum you need to listen to before you die. I just put the shoegaze genre and the title of the Alabama Shakes song together. This is worse that ambient noise music because this woman "wrote" these lyrics knowing they are just sounds. She should have just gone to Japan and read off the strange English you find on some t-shirts there. The lyrics are dumb, the music is terrible, there is nothing redeeming about this album. This could be the music from a Final Fantasy game and I wouldn't know the difference.

This just wasn't for me.

I had no memory of listening to this, which should tell you all you need to know.

Diablo II town music ass album

Not for me - did not finish. Not sure why it’s on the list.

I dislike this type of music. Not my thing I find it boring. Dont like Kate Bush either. They should leave these groups forgotten.

Not for me

Just straight up boring and uninspired, if I wanted to listen to something like this I'd listen to Sisters of Mercy who have much better production values and far more interesting songs.

Couldn't wait for it to end.

From members of the band: Raymonde alluded to Treasure being rushed and unfinished, while Guthrie referred to it as "an abortion", "our worst album by a mile". (I wholly agree) If you look at the lyrics they all have the same thread. Choose a letter of the alphabet, come up with as many words that start with or contain that letter. Then play the same tired music while softly saying those words over and over again. Add a splash of reverb with some vocalizing to give it an "ethereal" touch. Vapid and self-aggrandizing. The whole collection of the human race's musical achievements would not be lacking anything if this album was never created or recorded.

That album font was an indicator

Mmm top 1000?

Nope

not my style

They startled my partner

Very creepy

Not good.

Oh that voice…. I’d rather have root canal without analgesics than listen to that again. 1star

80s Cranberries with the 80s turned to the max, and nothing that held up

Eh should stay in the 80s.

This sounded exactly the same as the previous Cocteau Twins album so I'm just going to copy/paste that review: The album has a very psychedelic and dream like sound which I was not a fan of. I really struggled to get through all of the tracks. I'm sure it was intentional but I hated the production/mixing because at times it felt like they were singing in another language.

I had a difficult time enjoying this album as it just felt like poppy background music to a positive movie. Dream pop is an interesting genre to me and I’ve had a hard time enjoying it. This album isn’t much different. 3.0/10

I don't think I'm cool enough to get it.

Meh.

Album 15 of 1001 Cocteau Twins - Treasure Favorite Track : Pass Rating : 1 / 5 All songs sounded the same. Not my thing. Kind of a mess, in my opinion. The "related" music that Spotify offered after it finished was interesting.

Eh, not my vibe at all. Soft rock with echoes of Enya. Pass

Niet mijn kopje thee, verre van zelfs. Het is zeker alternative, maar het heeft in de verste verte niks met rock te maken. Het is zeker uniek, en dat is maar goed ook, houden zo. Vooral raar gejengel over een deuntje, van de lyrics is niks te maken, maar goed klinkt het ook niet.

Oh man. After Leonard Cohen I was hoping for a nice rock or metal album. Hell I could have gone something pop or even jazz or swing. Instead we get this... Oh man. I needed to check if my ears were bleeding multiple times.

I didn't realize that Treasure was a synonym for steaming pile of 80's dogshit.

No no no no please no

Pffffffffffff

Fasansfullt. Är det bara denna plattan eller var det lika illa hela vägen?

Not bad or terrible. Just very strange. Not my cup of tea. Not even sure if it was foreign or not. Just very strange.

Horrible, I couldn't even listen to half of the album

Ivo

Ooo-ooo-ooo, ahh-ahh-ahh, sigh-sigh-sigh.

Boring

Crap. Absolute crap.

Trash.

Really not my favorite just didn't stick with me or made an impression

whack

Generic 80's sound.

As hard as I tried, I couldn't get into this album.

I was a bit underwhelmed, it sounds like it may have been fresh for the time but now it sounds badly produced and there is so much better ethereal stuff out there now

This was not something I would listen to again.

very strange trance-like featuring airy/moany vocals that are unable to be interpreted with a very old school production sound. Not for me

Remember that time you were huffing nitrous while being chased through the house of mirrors by those clowns playing the bagpipes and you couldn't find a way out? THIS IS THAT ALBUM!!! I bought my first and only CT album in 1993 because of Jeremy Klein's part in "Ravers." I liked that Iceblink Luck song, yet it wore on me after only a few plays and I never listened to it again. But that was 30 years ago ... on a different album, and we've all changed ...so why not start fresh, eh? No such luck, and if I changed, it's only to be less forgiving. Yes, this album is terribly-unique in that it's uniquely terrible. I had a visceral reaction to Treasure and though technically, it is music, I hated everything about it. The bajillion fasletto voice overlays, high-pitched keyboard overlays and more overlays of echo-y feedback overlays gave me the sickly-anxieties so bad that were tough to shake even after it ended. Somehow, I managed to find my way though without barfing and lose the clowns in the process. So, that's one good thing about this one. Truth be told, I'd rather be in this room, with these two guys just before being murdered than giving Treasure another listen. (https://youtu.be/7E_U1xyK7Gw?t=91).

Not really my jam. Plus, it all sounded the same to me.

A Scottish electronic pop act…I must love this…right? No…no I do not. I most certainly could have died without hearing this album. There are a lot of seemingly random elements to this album somewhat like a Salvador Dalí painting. However unlike a Dalí, there is no overarching theme to the elements, no thematic beauty. Just random shit…like I swear there was yodeling in Amelia…WTF. According to Internet, these guys started the modern dream pop genre. They deserve credit for doing so because Internet also tells me these other bands are dream pop too: Au Revoir Simone, Chromatics, and Troye Sivan. They all kick some major, major, MAJOR fucking ass. So kudos to Cocteau Twins for pioneering this genre. This album is still shit though.

No meme high ca le fait las

Trash.

I really did not enjoy this 👎

Didn't like at all

couldn't finish

Horrible

New age, só q ruim.
