Goldfrapp — Seventh Tree

With Seventh Tree, Goldfrapp have done what more established bands should do: Change their sound while staying true to who they are. This means not pulling a Jewel and drastically changing your sound so it just sounds un-natural and wrong. Seventh Tree is a gorgeous album that finally showcases Allison Goldgrapp's crazy vocal range, ability and...

Goldfrapp — Supernature

in
By Steve English (CHARTattack) March 7, 2006 12:19 pm
There's much to like about U.K. robovixen Alison Goldfrapp's third full-length, primarily the brain-numbingly addictive Teutonic electro-haus beats and saucy, icily cooed come-ons like "Switch me on, turn me up/I want to touch you, you're just made for love" on "Ooh La La." But regrettably, the super-delayed Supernature's...

Chillout '05 Compilation

in
By Amanda Factor (CHARTattack) June 15, 2004 4:49 pm
This is the fifth offering in a series dedicated to the chillout genre, which is often used as background music for cocktail parties and pilates sessions. Unlike many of the collections that clog the racks (some of which boast obscene price tags), this edition features recognizable tracks that we’re used to vegging out to. Even if you’ve never...

Goldfrapp — Black Cherry

in
By Andy Lee (CHARTattack) May 6, 2003 9:58 am
On Black Cherry, U.K. duo Goldfrapp part ways with the trip-hop trappings of 2001's Felt Mountain in favour of flirtations with electroclash and synth pop balladry. Nowhere is their musical shift more apparent than on the ultra-swank "Train, " backed by Portishead’s Adrian Utley and Sparklehorse’s Mark Linkous. The constant tug-of-war...

Goldfrapp — Head First

in
By Ian Gormely (CHARTattack) April 30, 2010 2:39 pm
Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory were once mentioned in the same breath as turn of the century also-rans Fischerspooner, but they excised any remnants of electroclash from their sound on the more down-tempo Seventh Tree.   Head First finds Goldfrapp (the woman) diving into synth-pop, emerging with a sound that's more Madonna than Madge...

Pumping: Goldfrapp - Seventh Tree

This album made me feel like I was hanging from a tree out of boredom. Some folks swear by Goldfrapp's artful gloss weirdness, but those folks should probably just buy Bat For Lashes albums. They'd be much happier.

Goldfrapp Are Quite Poor

in
By Phil Villeneuve (CHARTattack) September 16, 2008 10:49 am
It used to be that when Goldfrapp came out with a new album, you'd hear about it, whether it was in clubs or in television commercials. Things have changed with their newest, artists-in-the-English-countryside incarnation. ChartAttack spoke with Alison Goldfrapp over the phone from her London apartment about their current existence, their latest...

Goldfrapp's An Old Fart

in
By Phil Villeneuve (CHARTattack) September 11, 2008 4:21 pm
There are many mysterious things about Goldfrapp. How did they successfully move from electro-glam dance anthems to pastoral pleasures on their newest album, Seventh Tree? Where do their trademark naked-women-with-owl-heads spawn from? How does she attach that horse mane to her backside? But one of the most mysterious things surrounding the...

Goldfrapp Take A Turn On New Album

in
By CHARTattack Staff January 9, 2008 5:30 pm
Expect less synthesizer-based dance music from Goldfrapp when Seventh Tree arrives in stores via Mute on Feb. 26. Singer/synthesizer player Alison Goldfrapp and multi-instrumentalist Will Gregory veer off in a more ethereal, psychedelic pop direction and introduce acoustic guitars for the first time on their fourth studio album, which was...

New Releases: Neko Case Leads The Flood

in
By ChartAttack.com Staff (CHARTattack) March 6, 2006 6:00 pm
Last week there was nothing to talk about. This week, there's just too much. We begin with a former indie queen who's about to take the crown back from reigning monarch Feist. Neko Case's Fox Confessor Brings The Flood is her first studio album in four years and, without spoiling too much, it's worth the tremendous wait. Not that Case has been...
