Album 8
I'm wondering if she's planning a more permanent solo jump? Will has completely vanished from her life, it seems.

If the album had a stronger opening stretch of songs, I would absolutely love it. "Anymore" and "Tigerman" are the weakest links for me here, with "Systemagic" being just slightly higher up in my rankings. These are by …

Which Goldfrapp album are you?
Feels Mountain and Seven Up.

I agree. "Systemagic" needs to be it with a flashy video.

My bundle arrived today, properly addressed with no mess-ups lol. Will signed on a separate page.

Systemagic and Everything is Never Enough are the obvious choices, but I'm hoping for Become the One!

This really just might be their most impeccably produced album, in my opinion. Alison and Will have such a talent for creating atmosphere and sonic unity across their albums and Silver Eye is yet another testament to that. It's a magical album,…

My signed CD/vinyl is due to arrive on Monday. Sigh.

Become The One
I like this song... When I heard It first I had thoughts of Tiptoe in back of my head. Weird. It's like the lovechild between "Tiptoe" and "Voicething." Love love love!

Silver Eye reviews
A surprising 7.4 from Pitchfork. This is their second highest rating of a Goldfrapp album. Felt Mountain received an 8.0. http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/23050-silver-eye/ "On their first album in four years, Goldfrapp synthesize all their …

It's my favorite so far! How it wasn't the first single is beyond me. It's HUGE and the perfect marriage of everything I love about Goldfrapp. (P.S. Delete my thread for the song. I didn't realize we stopped doing that lol.)

Slant is more obnoxious than Pitchfork, if that's even possible. "Tales of Us" got a similarly tepid review from them.

Ocean
Now THIS is what I'm talking about. Perfection.

Hopefully the situation with TOU forced them to tighten up security a bit and this thing won't leak until the releases start trickling in. I would love for another song in the next week or so, though.

I'm hoping we get another track soon. With TOU we got "Annabel," but that was less than a week before the album release date.

@MonsterLove Systemagic and Ocean are two of the most explosive songs on the album, in my opinion. You will not be disappointed in the slightest, particularly if you like Thea, Train, Strict Machine, Dreaming or Tiptoe. But if you can hang in there …

New York gig 26/27th April @Brooklyn Steel
I'm in New York the 20th through the 25th. So of course she'll be in Brooklyn the day after I leave. Sigh.

Good lord, I come back from the gym to find 42 unread responses to this thread and thought the damn album leaked lol.

I posted the link, but I refuse to listen to clips lol. Especially 7 whole weeks before the album comes out. Best to focus on other things for now. "Anymore" video tomorrow!!!

Okay, so... music video tomorrow? It's honestly stupid to delay it any longer than a week after the track is out.

I made a thing. Because the completist in me is perhaps unnecessarily bothered that the traditional Goldfrapp logo or album title isn’t on the actual cover. AND because I love this alternate crop of the cover photograph.
