Musically the album is great. But just not the Goldfrapp I knew and loved. Has nothing on Black Cherry or Supernature. Quite disappointed with the folk sounds the tracks with the exception of one or two. Perhaps it will grow on me....

and I might not be the Goldrapp you know and love, but neither was Supernature for many others. Personally, anything they do is amezzin

I agree. It will definitely grow on you. I hated it at first because I loved Black Cherry and their funky electro sounds.

I gave the album a chance and I like it better than Supernature. Supernature wasn't that good, though.

There's a version of the album out which has a DVD, handwritten booklet and some other goodies but it's something like £18.

^^^Indeed it was amazing. Alison was flawless singing live as usual. She's such a genius IMHO. Long may they release music.

I wish i was! Can't afford to travel to London at the moment, Goldfrapp are just glorious live.

For me, Alison is the UK's finest female vocalist, a national treasure.

I rarely ever like remixes.

They were robbed by Amy Winehouse, really. I think if the Brits and such never happened so soon, then they'd be number 1. They were number 1 in the midweeks.

I really never knew Goldfrapp were so popular. I'm not bothered, but I thought Supernature was only a hit because of Oh La La.
