The first single is premiering on BBC6 Music this Monday at some point! :amazed: I don't know what time, but the single should be coming out then. I'm so excited! :D

So two new songs from Tales Of Us have just appeared on Tumblr?! I reblogged them to my own Tumblr so here they are (I'm not sure if this is intentional on Goldfrapp's part or not, because there's been no word about it, so they might be taken down soon):

Clay

Thea

I'm extremely pleased. It's as if it's a culmination of their previous styles. They're gorgeous, Clay especially. :lovedup:

:love:

Oooh I like them both but Clay is <3.

this album seems set to be a bit like The Haunted Man (just... simple, ballad-led songwriting), which can't be a bad thing

I've just found out that Clay is actually based on this (http://www.lettersofnote.com/2013/02...l-my-love.html) letter. If you listen to the lyrics, it backs it up because they do correspond with certain passages from the letter. It's kinda sad and lovely at the same time.

Alison did say that all the songs are based around a person, hence all the song titles being actual names.

A third song leaked today. It's Jo:

We'll probably have the full album by Monday if they keep leaking like this. :amazed:

Okay so now the whole album has apparently leaked. Excuse me while I scramble to find a copy.

I always feel sorry for bands when their music is leaked

The album :love:

I've listened to it a few times now, and I think it's probably their best yet. It's gorgeous start to finish. :lovedup:

is it felt mountain-y it had better be

It's very Felt Mountain-y. Most of the tracks remind me of Paper Bag from FM actually. :love:
