Cocteau Twins - The Itchy Glowbo Blow

[link] No one does arch-atmosphere like Cocteau Twins. It's sort of like Tolkein did for the genre of fantasy.  The Cocteau Twins invented the entirety of the "ethereal sound" that because such a huge pursuit in Shoegaze, lock, stock, and barrell, the beginning, the end, all of it.  This song is a superb example of this, but also, especially in the fade out figure at the end, there is pop in here.
