Yes (the new Instagram page even follows Mute itself), but likely under new terms. Perhaps they're working with a per-album contract/arrangement now and not one spanning several releases like before? I find all of this fascinating, really.

Ever since the band put their glam rocker attire and slinky electro-funk away, there has been less marketing and whatnot, and Head First being dismissed by the band themselves as "not their favourite" album - along with other things such a…

It's happening! They're getting everything ready for the next album era, without a shadow of a doubt. I give it two weeks for an announcement or major hint of some kind.

Hows the new album coming along ?
The fact that she took the time to reply to specific queries pertaining to the title is very interesting. To me, it looks like they're trying to kill any rumours or speculation, leaving the reveal confusion-free when it comes to the title. I do…

Yep, sure enough everything is back now. Interesting!Normally (and from what I can tell), the only time a catalog almost completely vanishes on iTunes is when they're setting up a page for a new release pertaining to the artist(s) in question. …

An interesting little development: All studio albums, singles and other "official" releases by the band are missing from iTunes Canada except for Melancholy Sky, A&E Remixes, Judas Remix, Thea EP and Tales of Us - quite a substantial c…

Hows the new album coming along ?
Very excited that, at long last, era number seven is about to commence. Hopefully we'll hear something by Christmastime. REALLY hoping for an energetic and wild sound akin to "Thea" on this one. After Seventh Tree and Tales of Us, I&…

Japan's culture is staggering. I've got so many stories. It's funny, though, that I am always more attracted to Europe. I guess one thing is that You change boundaries and, bam, you're in a totally different world. It's …

Gosh, I thought everyone east of Toronto were bilingual. I'm surprised! I would definitely take Paris over, well, anyplace in the world. But, that's just in my dreams. It used to be like that, but the influx of people from other count…

I'm psyched for you, Slippage. One of my favorites. Her 9/11 song is just tremendous (and, of course, tons of others). So, you're right coast... sorta. I just love Montreal. Errr, actually, it's been so long since I've been …

The St. Lawrence is quite a ways off from Ottawa, unless if one drives (and there's little need to do so in such a city). French was never a strong suit of mine, but thankfully it isn't "enforced". I'd highly suggest sticki…

Sarah Mclachlan at Ottawa JazzFest on June 25th! Could not be more excited - here's hoping her setlist remains the same as last year. If I don't hear Possession, Fear or Witness... gah! Can't bear to think about it. My mother is comin…

Yeah, Kat, but think of what fun it would be if your agent, manager, and whatever other middle-men were involved were doing their job. I'm really hoping Slippage is onto something. That would be what I was waiting for all these years. That G…

Oh, Slippage, I thought you were talking about UT. Ha! Nope - sorry to disappoint? ;)

People and their damned agendas. I'm telling you, religion and the practice of "shoving our ways" in people's faces to piss them off and claim "this is what's right since it was right for me" will be our downfall -…

Gah! Don't do this to me! Alison also announced the band being featured in a mix playlist today - for Orlando, mind you, but they do seem keen on gaining the public's interest when put into perspective alongside the spike in radio play. S…

we have to hear something soon...no?
It is definitely time, yes. I have a gut feeling we'll know more within a couple of months at most. She's more active online lately - could be an indicator of studio sessions winding down and her having more free time. Still, if they'…

Thought I'd pop in for two reasons: I miss my little Frappy family, and also wanted to share something with you all. I now have an official website (I'm a writer and photographer), http://www.coreyreed.net/ and it showcases original pieces…

Ottawa Bluesfest is announcing their lineup on Tuesday - it's one of the biggest music festivals in North America now. Still, not getting my hopes up for Goldfrapp - it's like crossing fingers since 2002 for a new Amanda Marshall album (ow…

madonna's shoes tumblin' for you
Saw her live in Toronto for the Rebel Heart Tour. She cut songs from her playlist, came on forty minutes late, bitched if people didn't fangirl and clap for her, mimed all of her new songs but none of the oldies that she's rehearsed over a…

Yeah, this website screwed up the quote function, again. Anyways, the point was, what is your Favorite Fleetwood Mac album, Slippage. I'm kinda partial to "Bare Trees". A hard question, that's for sure. I think mine would have …

What are you listening to now?
"The Healing Spirit", an instrumental album by Diane Arkenstone, wife of famous composer David Arkenstone, if I recall correctly. You all need this album. It is simply beautiful. Like an Enya album but without vocals and enhanced soundsca…

Loving the new album. The synths are hard, crunchy and remind me of skittles, for some reason (and no, I don't know why). My only complaint is the inclusion of the male vocalist (whose name escapes me at the moment) on certain tracks. With LM,…

Lazarus was literally the perfect goodbye. He had this planned from the beginning of planning for Blackstar, without a shadow of a doubt. This man knew what he was doing and ensured the proper procedures were followed to guarantee the survival of hi…

Well, David Bowie passed away today. Damn it. I'm going to miss that man so much. The only thing that could cheer me up is new Goldfrapp music. Given her tweets recently, she was a major fan (no surprises remotely). If anything, perhaps this wi…

This is what I figured would happen. I'd love to hear a Boards of Canada (Tomorrow's Harvest Era) kind of sound, or something with a feel of tribal / exotic dance. Just please not another Tales of Us sound... unless you count Thea. I wanna…

Spectre, for me, was the best bond since Goldeneye without a moment's hesitation. There was so much Moore-esque humour and levity mingled with fizzes and pops of action that it felt like the truest Bond in any of the Craig films. It harkened ba…

Her silence is usually when we ought to get excited. I'm pretty sure she's working like mad in the studio as we speak. Watch, she'll just come out of nowhere with a single announcement. They always have the element of surprise!

My main scenarios/fantasies for what I'd want to see (hear?) them do next: I'd love a warm, kind of eastern, tribal, asian sounds inspired album. Their Volta, if you will. Some "mantra"ish songs, some sitar, drums, japanese harps…

Sigh.... Sam Granny Smith. Not the worst choice, but I would have preferred the Frapp over it, or even Lana Del Rey (who would actually do a brilliant job most likely).
