Echoes in a Shallow Bay
''Echoes in a Shallow Bay'' is an EP by the Scottish rock group Cocteau Twins, released on 4AD. The EP featured four non-album tracks. It was issued on 29 November 1985, two weeks after another EP, ''Tiny Dynamine''. The two EP sets, which featured complementary artwork, were also released as a combined double EP in a gatefold cover, and as an eight-track CD. The EP was reissued in 1991 as part of ''The Box Set'' and in 2005 as part of the singles/EP collection ''Lullabies to Violaine''.
==Background==
The band did not originally intend to release these songs to the general public, presumably explaining the decision to release the material on EPs, rather than as what would have been their fourth album. The tracks on ''Tiny Dynamine'' and ''Echoes in a Shallow Bay'' were initially recorded to test the production capacities of a new studio. When the band decided the material was strong enough for release, they completed the recording process and issued the finished product on two EPs.
"Pale Clouded White" was performed live. A remastered version of the song appeared on the 2000 compilation ''Stars and Topsoil''.
Elizabeth Fraser's typically indecipherable lyrics make it difficult to be sure, but all the titles on the two EPs seem to have some link with Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths). The Great Spangled Fritillary is a butterfly, and while there is no Pale Clouded White, there is a Pale Clouded Yellow (as well as several groups of butterflies commonly known as Whites), while ''Mellonella'' is the specific name of the wax moth ''Galleria mellonella''. The lyrics of this track consist of Fraser reciting the scientific names of the families of British moths. Lepidoptera eggs do not have shells, though.
