2016 remastered reissue.
“‘Treasure’ sounds like nothing you’ve ever heard and everything you’ve ever wished for. Most people change; The Cocteau Twins blossom. The break from the hellish Gothic shackles of the awkward ‘Garlands’ to the heavenly scorpion cocktail jazz of ‘Head Over Heels’ was a metamorphosis beyond the imagining. But how were we to know that the chrysalis had only just cracked, that the colours we were devouring were just a dazzling secretion? Without meaning to, without caring, ‘Treasure’ is what so many strive for—a new pop music. Anyone can listen to this and feel enriched. It’s stirring, sensual, stately, subtle. It’s bubblegum spiked with acid. It’s candy-coloured. It’s timeless.” – Steve Sutherland, Melody Maker, 1984.
