    I think the way it was put on the interview said it well. It's an album, rather than just a collection of tracks. It's all tied together with the art, movies, lyrics etc into one thing. I guess the concept thing is true in many ways.

    Thanks you two. I suppose the song titles with the exception of one being names made me think of concept albums. I don't mind at all really, anything new from Goldfrapp pleases me ;)

    ^ You have a good point there. Seems possible. How exciting! A direction like that would make people more likely to want to buy the whole album as opposed to just buying a few singles.

    Absolutely. I wonder how many of the tracks are going to be released as singles, I would hope not many personally, and if I can dare to say it I hope not every track is made as being a potential single, but that's just personal preference I guess.

    Curious what this has to do with the new album? Am I missing something?

    Many artists would run shit-scared away from anything likely to be labelled "concept album".. but a certain K Bush has had no such fear.... and Alison has of course cited her as an inspiration in the past.

    I am really excited about this album era now :) with the box set and unique Manchester shows it just seems so special, well thought out, involved, artistic and .... intriguing! I haven't heard any of the snippets yet and I am not going to as I want to hear it all new in July. I'm getting the same giddiness that I did over Seventh Tree as the details were gently released.

    Tales Of Us feels more like an artistic project, rather than making an album to order like the vibe I got from the Head First campaign.. its like Goldfrapp have got their mojo back!!

    Sometimes you have to take a step sideways in order to move forward.

    Yes the more I think about it, this really does seem to be a concept album of sorts, Alison was talking  about story telling in that interview yesterday, and I suppose the basis of a concept album is an album that has a story like feel to it.

    Well concept album or not, it won't be anything like this
