Milk And Kisses is an album by Cocteau Twins issued in 1996. It proved their last; a meeting two years later to record a new album ended with the breakup of the band.
Milk And Kisses is seen by many listeners as a return to the band's roots after the previous album Four-Calendar Café. More complex sound textures and the "wall of sound" guitar effect which was the band's trademark reappear here. Also the vocals of Elizabeth Fraser reverted to unintelligibility; the first track, "Violaine" even features backwards vocals to make recognition of her lyrics more difficult.
