Billboard "Goldfrapp announce 'Tales of Us' album"

MusicIs "Goldfrapp prezentuja 'Tales of Us'"
Questions and Answers:

Thank you :) I wasn't sure it would be a good idea... But I think its best to have one thread on the press, than several about each article :)

Yes, very good idea indeed.

What I like about the press so far, all of them seem to have a very good idea of who and what Goldfrapp is and what they did and said in the past. Which is actually not the case for most press/articles/news nowadays at all.

So yeah, keep up the good (fan?) writing.

yeah good idea indeed, nothing terribly exciting but that's whay you expect from the NME for about the last 20 years or so, it's a mention nonetheless http://www.nme.com/news/goldfrapp/70793

I'll second that. If we can, somehow, help, more power to us. Good idea, Kaleb.

I guess I"m aready encouraged, from what is said here, that, maybe, that new agency is showing the influence that some people suggested they would have.

Yes, that surprised me as well :) But it's a very good thing!

kaleb20, would it be possible to occasionally update the first post with links as people post them, in a semi-organized way? then we could have an easy reference for all press at the top of the thread rather than having to wade through pages and pages of replies
