I can't say I don't share the same sentiment that I hope something happens tomorrow. I'm the type of person to feel way more excited in a positive way (rather than sort of anxious way) when there's at least an album title/cover/…

I fully agree, HolyOwl! Nevertheless, if the album is upbeat "machine pop" as described in MOJO's February issue, then it will be very, very highly marketable. No reason this can't be as successful in Western culture as Supernatu…

I agree regarding Sohn (finally!!!!!) and The xx. Still, it could very well become one of those situations where multiple new electronica releases act as a sort of crutch for one another if released or announced at the same time, with people pinging…

It would be so silly to delay the announcement any longer than Friday, especially with Friday being the day when iTunes refreshes their store with new music and pre-orders (not to mention hype has peaked as high as it can prior to any single release…

It's probably them messing with us, lol! I wouldn't put it past Alison to fiddle about - one only needs to see the amount of teasers she puts out to know how much she loves to torture us (lovingly)!

The Wikipedia Goldfrapp page has removed Pangaea from the discography section. Stops now at ToU. It's this week. It's got to be. Too much fiddling everywhere for it not to be.

An update: iTunes Canada is fiddling with the discography again (last time being just before the first teaser). All soundtracks including Vampire Diaries (featuring We Radiate, the HF b-side) are totally gone, and they've definitely added a few…

I think we got one of the singles for free or something, but also a live version of one of the ToU songs as well later on down the line. We also got first notice of the limited deluxe edition sets (with the first 100 being signed), if I remember cor…

Real. February 2017 issue of MOJO. Despite using a Supernature-era photo, I firmly believe they're bang on the money when comparing the sound to the imagery teased. I think this will be the essence of Utopia in the form of an entire album, spat…

Good eye, you two! I hadn't had my morning coffee yet when I first saw it, lol. Even more mysterious, then.

Exciting!! This time it's definitely Alison, see her wrist tattoo on the left. Edit: Or wait, wasn't it the finger actually? Her finger. Not sure if she has another, however. The tattoo here looks like a cross - perhaps this album's…

New photo posted today. Probably not an album or single cover, as it would be square-cropped already. Very exciting. Seems the previous hints of "metal machine" pop with underground electro may be true, given the recurring dystopian theme …

The increasing potential for #7 info as well as the Nintendo Switch presentation on Thursday are the highlights of my week. My legs are sore from dancing in regards to both of these! I should also point out that Alison has stopped making any Twitter…

BB6 Music's Twitter said today that "We have NEW Goldfrapp coming soon don't you know." They played Twist today, apparently pleasing many Twitter folk. The hints and hype are both piling up. Many radio stations of varying popular…

That's absolutely hilarious (though I feel sorry for Alison and the gang having to put up with that kind of ignorant crap - why bother attending a show anyway?). I also remember her getting rather upset during a Head First tour stop when the in…

Browsing the page source code for the main homepage, it seems that there are embedded audio playback buttons present as well as linkage of some kind to their Spotify, as well as a carousel-style slideshow (which may be code lingering from the Single…

I'm pretty certain this is Head First, taking into consideration the fact that Will's goatee isn't as greyed as Little Noise / Tales. The big giveaway is Alison's hair length - it was flowing and free-spirited for Seventh Tree bu…

Could very well be the actual album title. After all, what do people adding things anonymously to Wikipedia have to gain, really? Note how the font is bolded too as a placeholder for an eventual hyperlink to the album's wiki page. Also note how…

They really ought to release a proper chunk of information within the next few days for certain. Now that they have the general public's attention, however long that lasts (and if the album comes out within a month or so as rumoured), this week…

How did you get into Goldfrapp?
Yes I am only 19 years of age, but trying to find someone of similar age who is into the same pedigree of music as me is difficult (even for me). Alison is actually the same age as my mother, which I find a nice attribute for one reason or another …

Goldfrapp Vinyls
Paid $120 CDN for a sealed 180gm Supernature Vinyl, and $80 for Black Cherry. But honestly, they're impossible to find in decent condition. Good luck finding Seventh Tree and original Felt Mountain - the latter especially due to the damned anno…

I fully agree here. I simply wish them a financially secure future with the ability to create whatever they wish, be it a film or music project. Alison and Will's creative abilities are unrivalled in many aspects. Her photography alone... my Go…

The only tracks on it that don't really get many plays from me are Alive and I Wanna Life (mainly because the lyrics are so bland in my opinion)."Jump up and pull on my jeans. It feels good, they're a little tight" You should fe…

The anticipation is killing me! I'm hoping this album is a bit more up beat. I love all of them, but Supernature and Head First were my favorites. Never understood why people didn't like HF... I sympathize with you about HF. So many dism…

Gotta love how the only surviving section of the website is the forum. Much respect, Alison and Will. Truly. Hugs all around! Also, considering that new music releases every Friday, perhaps they'll release a single or teaser snippet soon? iTune…

I totally had a feeling that this was going to happen! I called it! Lol. Good to see that they're keeping the Goldfrapp logo/font style, as I remember Alison mentioning that they almost got rid of it for Tales of Us. Also, funny to see them usi…
