Goldfrapp announces 'Best Of' album.



From Alison's blog:


hope your all well?! i want to reasure you (without divulging too much at this point). our time with EMI came to it's contractual end, Will and i will be doing a 'best of' album,  we are very happy to do this and see it as a great thing for 'goldfrapp'. we are also very excited about the future of 'goldfrapp' and  we're really looking forward to making our next album, i can't say anything further on the details of that right now, but all is fine and dandy! we cant wait to get stuck in, writing new material for the release of our next album.

love and catch up soon xx alison

All of Supernature ...especially Satin Chic

And I like Human a lot too. I really liked Felt Mountain and the whole Noir feel of it.

OMG THIS !

It depends, I really love their first album, especially Horse tears and utopia...If you are more into the electronic part I say supernature is your album.
______glory 21st-Nov-2010 03:31 am (UTC)
just start from the first album "Felt Mountain"
supernature_971 21st-Nov-2010 03:33 am (UTC)
Pretty much all their songs are awesome tbh.
enid_keaner 21st-Nov-2010 03:59 am (UTC)
Start with Felt Mountain
untoldsarcasm 21st-Nov-2010 04:11 am (UTC)
Human, Horse Tears, Twist, Hunt, Cologne Cerrone Houdini, A&E, Utopia...

I honestly adore all their albums with the exception of Supernature. It's good but not great imo.

'Number 1' is like the perfect pop song to me.
picklecookies 21st-Nov-2010 05:16 pm (UTC)
it truly depends on what sounds you like. they have such a diverse range of sound.

felt mountain is this dreamy, ethereal almost creepy album.
for that, i recommend these:





Their second album, Black Cherry, moved toward electro:




Their third album, Supernature, kept the electronic theme:





their fourth, seventh tree, moved to a pagan, nature-inspired mellow album:

A&E

their fifth, head first, returned to electro inspired by italian disco and the 80s:







You really need to listen to all of the albums to appreciate Goldfrapp. Their sound is so vast and encompassing. It's incredible. If you start from the beginning and work your way through you can truly appreciate the growth and that every album has a similar theme that connects it all.

I love Allison's dreamy, ethereal voice.

Ask me more if you want. I'm a lil obsessed

Whenever I hear of Goldfrapp I only ever think of Hard Candy.

turkish_popstar 21st-Nov-2010 03:28 am (UTC)
Number One is my favorite song by them. I want to get married to the slowed down version on the We Are Glitter album.
enid_keaner 21st-Nov-2010 03:59 am (UTC)

Had to stop here, sorry.

I will listen to "Felt Mountain" which is the only Goldfrapp song I know, in honor of this post, however.

Was there ever a studio version of Yes Sir I Can Boogie?

I can't think about Goldfrapp without thinking of Hard Candy.
