New Goldfrapp Single

Moodles, Seventh Tree is definitely one of my favourites, the inverse of Tales of Us and includes probably one of their best tracks, "Eat Yourself". No songs from Tree or Tales on this tour, the band's trajectory is mostly dancefloor elevation

I think I may be the only person who thinks Seventh Tree is their best album.

Nope. To me it's her best by far.

Nice

I'm the only person who thinks Tales of Us is her best album so here we are all off in niches

Don't know about on here, but I know at least one person IRL who agrees with you.

Up thread there's some users who cite tales of us as favourite. It's mine as well over time

Seventh Tree is underrated, even if it's not the side of Goldfrapp I prefer.

Nope. One of my favourite albums full stop. Seeing her in Glasgow on Halloween and looking forward to a bigger dancier vibe tho

I’m liking the production on the last one but find it a bit lacking tune-wise

The slower tracks on Silver Eye are quite similar to Goldfrapp bsides ("Bodo" w/ Pale 3 is akin to "Faux Suede Drifter" for example). Or they're an amalgamation of Black Cherry/Tales Of Us style, like on "Beast That Never Was". But yeah not so sure about the more upbeat ones, they're not as tuneful as anything on Supernature/Black Cherry.

On a side note, Goldfrapp are pure fire live, and very heavy (largely in part to their excellent bassist and 3 female keyboardists). They're quite different on record though.

Chalk me up also in the Tales Of Us best album camp, no question. Seems weird you can't buy the accompanying film as it's a lovely thing and even had a (limited) cinema release.

Also seems mad they never released their Medea music either

^ whoa, thanks for mentioning that - never heard that

I've enjoyed all their albums, but Black Cherry, Tales Of Us and Seventh Tree are their three masterpieces for me. I have a hard time picking between Tales Of Us and Seventh Tree.

would rank them similarly kitchen but felt mountain has to be included, especially for "Deer Stop"

Supernature is their masterpiece, IMO. Excellent synthpop.

Number One and Ride a White Horse destroyed the crowd live, it's definitely the peak of their synthpop exrcusions

also Supernature has the beguiling "Time Out from the World" and "Let It Take You"

I just love the way the album sounds - it's really smooth and shiny. The artwork could not represent the contents any better!

ok this is hitting the spot this morning

Had no idea this was out! What happened to Will?

bump, this is really good! not everything is amazing but there's some really great stuff on here. the grooves are huge, expensive ass digital plug ins making everything sound like glitter waterfalls. the songs are classy, occasionally brilliant, some a little forgettable. but a super friendly / inviting listen overall.

I like this as much as black cherry and the other pop album (head on? Or whatever), maybe more TBH.
