Teignmouth (album)

1991 studio album by Love Is Colder Than Death From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Teignmouth is the first studio album by the neoclassical dark wave band Love Is Colder Than Death. The album features more gothic rock and electronic music elements compared to their later, more classical albums, and initiated the "Heavenly Voices" series.[clarification needed] It was released in Europe in 1991 by the Hyperium music label in both LP and CD formats. Earlier that year Hyperium had released the three song Wild World vinyl EP. Teignmouth was also released in the United States in 1994 by Metropolis Records as the then new record distribution and label's first release (MET001).
