Robin Guthrie Artist Snapshot:

Scottish guitarist Robin Guthrie first made his name as the guiding light of the iconic 1980s dream pop trio Cocteau Twins. He was also a key figure in the 4AD house band This Mortal Coil and later produced labelmates Lush and other bands. The dissolution of Guthrie's relationship with singer Liz Fraser ended Cocteau Twins following 1996's MILK AND KISSES, whereupon he began a new duo, Violet Indiana, with singer Siobhan de Mare. His solo career began with 2003's instrumental effort IMPERIAL. Guthrie also composes soundtracks for films, including Gregg Araki's MYSTERIOUS SKIN and Dany Saadia's 3:19.

Review

Magnet (p.98) - "CONTINENTAL is definitely the gorgeous tapestry of ethereal soundscapes you would expect from Guthrie, and it's completely dependent on the soaring, feedback-drenched tones of his guitar work."

Title Note

On 2006's CONTINENTAL, Robin Guthrie's second solo outing (and his first for Darla Records), the former Cocteau Twins guitarist offers up another instrumental set that is more striking and melody-driven than his beautifully subtle debut, IMPERIAL. In fact, many songs on this release, particularly the slowly building title track and the moody "Monument," clearly echo vintage Cocteau Twins recordings in their shimmering elegance and graceful ebb and flow. Arguably the finest Cocteaus-related project since the group's late-1990s demise, CONTINENTAL is sure to please many fans of the revered ensemble.
