SPOILER WARNINGBecome The One is the strangest track I've heard by them. Not liking the vocal treatment at all. Need to hear more though - perhaps it's salvageable. As it stands, though, I think it's utterly horrible and could have been something really special.

well i didn't like 'anymore' when i heard the clip yet somehow the song has been on repeat on my iPod ever since the full track came out... odd how that happens isn't it?

Fascination management didn't get back to me either BTW. Do they still cover Goldfrapp? Well, their webpage seems to say so (albeit an old pic)... http://www.fascinationmanagement.com/

Yeah that's cool when that happens. Feel like you're trying to make a point.

Fair enough. To me, in my opinion, the track sounds horrible in comparison to what the rest of the album sounds like. That being said, it is only a minute-long snippet and it could just be a poorly selected section of the track. Could have a killer chorus or sudden abrupt changes.Still, can't be expected to like every song they produce. Can't tell you the backlash I've received from countless Madonna fans for not being able to stand specific songs, or from Cher fans for liking certain ones.Just can't win!Lol. That being said, the album is sounding fantastic altogether. Very glad I pre-ordered, as always.I'm really shocked that Zodiac Black isn't something akin to Strict Machine, as others and myself had expected/hoped. The middle of the album feels pretty damn saggy without an uptempo bump between the chunk of slower songs if we're going by the snippets.

Low said:Hey, I never said you weren't allowed to call it what you want but doing so on a 1 minute snippet always seems a bit pointless to me. >:D< Maybe the songs just explode near the end, we don't know. And won't hopefully until the end of March.
