The Official Goldfrapp Thread

OH MY GOD I can't believe this hasn't been created yet. What do you guys think of their new album "Seventh Tree"? It's been leaked so early that I hope it doesn't affect the sales too much. The sound is much more trip-hop like their early material and doesn't have any super uptempo songs like Supernature and Black Cherry did. It's really beautiful though, I'll share it with you guys as soon as I can get it up.

Here is the video for A&E, the first single from Seventh Tree.



The cover and other artwork from the album can be found on their Myspace and probably their website (I haven't checked their official site)

Felipe: You know you want it! ;D

A&E is such a pretty song but I just can't keep a straight face with the dancers in the video. That's what I love about Goldfrapp.

Here are the cover pictures!

I wonder what A&E stands for...maybe a name of a guy and a girl carved on a tree? I dunno

And yeah, the dancers were hilarious. I did find it cool how they'd camouflage in the scenario and practically disappear.

I was really excited for this new album & I was sure I'd buy it, but now I'm not so sure anymore. I'll probably wait until it hits the discount bin lol

I'm not too bummed though, Roisín Murphy >>>> Goldfrapp these days

sorry for the thread hijack, but I think everybody who likes Goldfrapp should check out Roisin's music. her music is the kind of music you'd wish goldfrapp would make

I was thinking something like that too, after all Alison does start with A.

Maybe A&E is Adam and Eve? Would make sense with the guy and a girl haha and a tree possibly.

It's such a coincidence that I run into this thread today since I totally just fell in love with "A&E" like earlier today. This maybe the first Goldfrapp album I pick up, though I'm sure I should just go ahead and get "Supernature" too.

A&E cover looks like an album cover and Seventh Tree cover looks like a single cover. x_x
Anyway, I think I'll give this a listen, like NOW, since I actually bought Supernature, which must mean something. :O

I'm downloading the album now (Thanks Vinylfantasy) but I've heard A & E on the radio and was slightly dissapointed. I disliked the first album but Black Cherry was awesome. Supernatural was Great aswell but from A & E it seems they/she (Which is it) have gone full circle back to the dreamy ... well ... boringness of Felt Mountain.
Will update after a listen to the full thing.

Why did it take me so long to notice this thread?

Goldfrapp is my favorite band of all time --- I practically worship everything they've ever released. I didn't think there were many other people here that liked them!

Haha, I'm such a fool. A&E was the Fresh song for MTV Estonia last week and I was watching the video halfway and judging by the sound and the fact that I just saw her on the cover of a respected newspaper, I thought it was Roisin Murphy. When "Roisin" said "A&E" it was just too weird and there I was cussing myself for not recognizing my dearest Goldfrapp. That said, I didn't have much chance to notice the song, but from what I heard, it wasn't bad at all.

Goldfrapp.free.fr now has scans of the "Seventh Tree" CD+DVD "box set" artwork up, if anyone wants to see some spoilers:

http://goldfrapp.free.fr/php/home.php?sscat=257&type=CD

It looks wonderful, and I can't wait to get my copy (along with the "A&E" single) next week!

EDIT: This site has pictures of the CD-only version --- just scroll to the bottom of the page to see them.

Cool! Thanks for sharing.

Have you guys heard the cover they did of "Not Over Yet" by Paul Oakenfold? It's so cool! I'll upload it when I get back from class.
