‘Bills & Aches & Blues‘ features 18 artists from 4AD's current roster covering songs from throughout the label's 40 years, including Jenny Hval, Aldous Harding, US Girls, Bradford Cox, Efterklang, and more.

The EP was the perfect format for the original shoegaze scene, allowing bands to stretch out...but not too much. Here are the best Extended Plays of the early '90s era.

The influence of the Cocteau Twins goes well beyond dreampop and shoegaze.

From shoegaze to Madchester, pop and hip hop, Sonic Youth to Cocteau Twins, it's Indie Basement's Top albums of 1990.

This week in Indie Basement: C90 takes C86 into a new decade, a collaboration between The Auteurs' Luke Haines & R.E.M.'s Peter Buck, and Peter Strickland's delightfully weird film In Fabric.

With his design studios 23 Envelope and v23, Vaughn Oliver created some of the most iconic album art of the 1980s, including records for Cocteau Twins, Pixies, This Mortal Coil, Dead Can Dance, The Wolfgang Press, and more.
