Goldfrapp

I know a few of you have said that "Caravan Girl" is your fave track on the new Goldfrapp album, Seventh Tree.  Well, rejoice because now there's an official video for the song:
Goldfrapp - "Caravan Girl":

I love it of course, merely because it features longboarding, but the tune is pretty sweet too.

So I've been preparing for this one for a while- a game inspired by Brittanybf's Pictionary (ya know you're all addicted).. So here goes.... Below is some pictures of crowds from festivals and large concerts from the past year- some sweaty, some raging, some ethereal. Can you match the MUSICAL ACT with its appropriate crowd? I've Listed the picts A through H. And then I've listed the various Bands 1 through 8. THEY AREN'T IN THE CORRECT ORDER RIGHT NOW... CAN YOU GUE... MORE

I just received confirmation from Goldfrapp about their next single along with artwork.  The next single off Seventh Tree is "Caravan Girl" to be released June 30th on Mute. Here is the artwork: I also just noticed on the Mute store website that there are a limited number of the singles collector boxes left. To be specific:

The Goldfrapp CD Collectors Box and 7 Inch Collectors Slipcase which hold all CD and 7 inch single formats to be released from 'Seventh Tree' a

So I guess the new catch phrase is 'Kill It". So I'm easy, I'll use it, even if I'm not hip like all the cool kids. So what. And Goldfrapp so did kill it Friday evening! While most of the Mogtipliers were catching The National(who I just haven't been able to get into) I, of course, had to, I mean HAD TO, see my beloved Goldfrapp. All you Nationalists missed out for sure haha! Alison & crew put on an amazing set and I was so in heaven. There were plenty of sublime music... MORE

First day in Coachella was not to hot, not too cold. Some highlights: Jens Lekman got everyone feeling high by pretending to take flight… {Jens Lekman} {Cut Copy} Cut Copy made Australia proud- as bouncing balls w. the Aussie flag throughout the crowd. {Vampire Weekend} Vampire Weekend played their first festival show to a packed crowd mid-day. Mum was ethereally blissful. {Goldfrapp} Had to forfeit Diplo to see GOLDFRAPP-(word was at Di... MORE

Just by chance, I did. And I was very pleased, too, because those are two musical acts I've heard a lot about on MOG but hadn't heard yet. Goldfrapp was on Jay Leno, and although I've heard snippets here and there this was the first time I got to hear a whole song. I couldn't tell you what song it was, but it was cool. Even cooler and more interesting was the visual aspect. The whole band was wearing white clothing/robes, etc (think Luke Skywalker in the original, if ... MORE

Problema sério de vício, entende? Não consigo parar de cheirar essa música.

British electronic/Folktronica group Goldfrapp has confirmed 3 dates in the US for the Spring. The group will perform at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, CA on April 25. The band will then play the Warfield Theater in San Francisco on April 26 and the Beacon Theater in New York City on April 29. The group is promoting their recently released fourth studio album Seventh Tree. It was released by Mute Records on February 25, 2008 in the United Kingdom ... MORE

Okay, so I've finally decided to weigh in on the new Goldfrapp album. First, I have to give her credit for doing something quite different this time out. Not only for the sake of crediting someone for trying to rework/reinvent their sound. It would have been incredibly easy for Goldfrapp to simply cash in on the trend towards something danceable these days. In fact, she probably could've killed and made 3 to 4 tracks that would be played at literally every party for the ne... MORE

Over the years I'd heard bits and pieces of Goldfrapp and thought, gee, for newfangly electronic music, that's kind of nice! But then I found their new album, Seventh Tree, streaming on AOL Music...and now it's gone, and I'm seriously missing it. (So, I just bought it, which means their evil plan worked!) The album opens with a nylon-string guitar and then Alison Goldfrapp's voice comes in -- and she's a real singer -- with something unintelligible about clowns, followed b... MORE

Hmmmm, where to begin... I picked up the new Goldfrapp album at the same time I got the new Morcheeba. I love both bands and although completely different, I got into them at the same time and for whatever reason tend to buy the new albums at the same time. This Goldfrapp album is quite a departure from previous efforts. There is much less of an electronic feel and much more of a folky feel. Don't get me wrong, this is not a folk album, but that is all I can come up wi... MORE

It seems most music groups go through cycles in their musical evolution. Eventually most bands hit the “stripped down” phase where they want to simplify their sound. By doing this, a band shows their audience that they don’t need all the bells and whistles in their sound, subsequently showing that their talent is authentic and not a product of the studio. Organic instruments allow for a more intimate mood in a band’s sound and, oddly enough, actually help broaden their s... MORE
