Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory must have felt, quite rightly, that they'd exhausted the disco-ball glamorama of Black Cherry and Supernature. In today's pop climate it's an almost logical move for them to go 'back to nature' in search of new inspiration. Not that there hasn't been a healthy streak of pastoralism in all Goldfrapp's work since their glorious 2000 debut, Felt Mountain. But anyone expecting more of the Bolan-meets-Moroder strut of the ultimately underwhelming Supernature are advised to beat a swift retreat from Goldfrapp's musical forest....full text |

| Those introduced to Goldfrapp via the electro-glam of 2005's Supernature or 2003's Black Cherry might be confused by the restrained, near-acoustic vibe of the new Seventh Tree.

The rumours were that Goldfrapp had "gone folk". Apparently the horse's tail was back in the wardrobe and mandolins and cheesecloth smocks were now order of the day. Influences such as Sylvester, T.Rex and Abba had been dropped in favour of "The Wicker Man", owls and the sort of cider that comes in barrels under the bar counter. "Hey nonny nonny, NO!", you can imagine a good proportion of her fanbase screaming. As it is, the rumours are half-right. It's tempting to view "Seventh Tree" as some sort of sequel to "Felt Mountain", or at least a red herring to the legion of copyists who have appropriated Alison Goldfrapp's sex glam disco template over the past few years (and that's pretty much every female in pop, from Rachel Stevens and Kylie right through to the Queen Bee herself, Madonna)....full text |
