If you love Goldfrapp ~ you will love this!
Goldfrapp is all dance! But this CD is all heart. . a journey into your head. . . lovely melodies and great lyrics take you places and leave you thinking! Her vocals are beautiful! I love this CD as much as her dance music if not more! .


DID NOT PLAY
It is defective. Did not work in my Bose no matter what I did. Too many pictures of her in there and things that don't matter. Could have done less of that and provided more value.


A rich, multi-faceted, beautiful work of art
" Here more than ever, sound, music and that remarkable voice, are just the mediums by which Will Gregory and Alison Goldfrapp convey their artistic vision. All of the Goldfrapp albums are rich works of art, but that is especially true in the case of "Seventh Tree.

Although Alison has explained how there is more "space" in the music of "Seventh Tree" than in, say, "Supernature," where, as she put it, there is always something popping or exploding within the soundscape . . . the depth of work that is presented here is staggering. I have listened to this album over and over hundreds of times now, and seen it performed live twice, and still, whatever I choose to focus on in any of the tracks, I find to remarkably more abundant than in the work of any other modern performer. Where other albums might be a stream to skip through, "Seventh Tree" is an ocean to swim in . . . where another artist's track is something to listen to, "Seventh Tree" is a world to live in.

My favorite performance on the album is "Some People. " In the lyrics, Alison is cutting sharply into her own skin, and in the structure of the piece, one finds something much more akin to a short story than a song. But if you just want to hear some terrific music, listen to the violins, listen to the prowling piano riffs that mark the developments in story.

Follow the album up with the single of "Caravan Girl" that has the choral version of that song . . . the finest audio recording I've ever heard, and the only one that has surpassed the best vinyl I've been privileged to hear. .


Goldfrapp - Seventh Tree 7.5/10
Fusing Goldfrapp's talented vocals with instrumentalist Will Gregory's dance-punk synthesizers and array of sounds, Goldfrapp has become a fixture on the European club scene. British electronica duo Goldfrapp (named after singer and frontwoman Alison Goldfrapp) have been slowly gaining in popularity since the beginning of the millennium and their debut album Felt Mountain. It's surprising, then, that their latest album, Seventh Tree, takes such a divergent musical route.

It takes about six and a half minutes before a casual listener might realize their listening to an electronica outfit, as a drum machine explodes onto the scene halfway through "Little Bird. " Whereas previous albums focused on Gregory's innovative beats and textures, Seventh Tree's focus is on Goldfrapp's lovely, breathy voice.

While the down tempo ballads that start off the album might initially turn off fans, later songs such as "Happiness" feature beautiful, multi-tracked vocals and a bouncy pop beat and build a pleasant vibe that continues, with just a few bumps in the road (see snoozer "Eat Yourself"), for the rest of the record.
