Split
While many of their contemporaries have branched out in intriguing new  directions since their dream-pop debuts, the members of Lush remained committed  to a hazy wall of Cocteau Twins guitar, breathy harmonies by Miki Berenyi and  Emma Anderson, and a fairly straightforward dance beat. The English quartet's  third album,Split, isn't an improvement or a departure fromGala(1990) orSpooky(1992). Lush continues exploring pleasant but slight  sounds on songs such as "Hypocrite" and "Light from a Dead  Star," and it's likely that the group will always be remembered as the  opening act on Lollapalooza '92.--Jim DeRogatis
