Keep in mind that that's all guitar, no synths.

That's a great song from a great album. I love the part at 0:41 when the other guitar comes in

Fuck yeah. This is one of my all time favorite bands, bar none. They're like the god parents of shoegaze/dreampop/swirlpop/gothpop.
Liz Fraser is probably my favorite vocalist, period. I met her once on the street in NY. It was gratifying to tell someone like that how much she's inspired me.
I saw Massive Attack a few years ago, and I wasn't expecting Liz to be touring with them, since she only sings a few songs.....but she came on stage and started singing "Teardrops", and I shit you not, I instantly started crying like a baby in front of everyone I was with.

That is cooler than Bobby D meeting Alex Lifeson when he was 12.

lawl, I considered using that Flapjack image for an avatar once...
It's a shame more Cartoons today aren't like that...
But this is about CT...
So, yeah, CT are pretty fucking bitchin'.
I think there's something good on pretty much every release, including Garlands.

off topic, but Flapjack is pretty hilarious.
I like the episode where they steal the Mermaid's Heart.
