The label announced it as the record's first vinyl pressing in more than ten years, with the jacket kept faithful to the original 23 Envelope design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cover photograph is Nigel Grierson's, made as a college project drafting alternative covers for Siouxsie and the Banshees' The Scream; 23 Envelope, his partnership with designer Vaughan Oliver, handled sleeve design and art direction. On the 1982 issue, lyrics from \"But I'm Not\", \"Shallow Then Halo\", \"Garlands\" and \"Grail Overfloweth\" ran on the inner sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4AD reissued it on the same day as Victorialand. XS Noize noted at the announcement that the pair put every Cocteau Twins studio album back in print except The Moon and the Melodies, the band's 1986 collaboration with Harold Budd. MOJO named the two represses its Vinyl Package of the Month.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGarlands was the Scottish band's debut, released by 4AD in 1982, and the only full-length album Elizabeth Fraser and Robin Guthrie recorded with original bassist Will Heggie. It was made at Blackwing Studios with engineers Eric Radcliffe and John Fryer, Ivo Watts-Russell sharing production with the band. Guthrie told Penny Black Music in 2006 that the studio staff would not let them run the drum machine through fuzz pedals and guitar amps as they had on the demos, so the drums came out cleaner than the band wanted. The album charted on the UK Independent Albums chart with support from John Peel, for whom the band had recorded a session including \"Wax and Wane\" and \"Garlands\" in June 1982.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlood Bitch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWax and Wane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBut I'm Not\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlind Dumb Deaf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSide B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShallow Then Halo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Hollow Men\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarlands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrail Overfloweth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 191400019218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4ad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.20.20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"4AD","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":67500945080478,"sku":"EVP-07003FAD-NEW-NEW-NONE0000","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/cocteautwins-garlands-1.jpg?v=1791732164","url":"https:\/\/evergreenvinyl.com\/products\/cocteau-twins-garlands-vinyl","provider":"Evergreen Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
