Goldfrapp Thread: Whole album leaks 1 month ahead of release
Goldfrapp Thread Because this band is basically perfect. http://themusicslut.com/wp-content/u...10/04/gold.jpg Goldfrapp are an English electronic music duo, formed in 1999 in London, consisting of Alison Goldfrapp (vocals/synthesizer, pictured above) and Will Gregory (synthesizer). Despite favourable reviews and a short-listing for the Mercury Prize, the ambient sound of their 2000 debut album Felt Mountain did not chart highly. Goldfrapp's second album Black Cherry, which incorporated glam rock and synthpop sounds into their music, was released in 2003. The album influenced the same dance-oriented sound of their third album Supernature. Supernature took Goldfrapp's work further into dance music, and enjoyed international chart success. Supernature produced three number-one US dance singles, and was nominated for Best Electronic/Dance Album at the 49th Grammy Awards. Their fourth album Seventh Tree placed a greater emphasis on ambient and downtempo music, drawing inspiration from nature and Paganism, while their fifth album, Head First, found the group exploring 1980s-influenced synthpop, and brought the formation a Grammy Award-nomination for Best Electronic/Dance Album in 2010. A couple of their better known singles: Spoiler: Facebook · Twitter · Tumblr · Website |

I hope they haven't split up :( there were a lot of rumours given the nature of YH's music video (ending with the fans and the "you've been amazing" stuff)... but if there's a 6th album then :amazed:
|
So Alison tweeted this today:

I know this isn't big news, but it means there's definitely going to be a single in in the next three or four months and I'm ****ing ecstatic for it. :amazed: |
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:
http://godfrapp.tumblr.com/post/56440625354 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
