7th Tree: LP Preview


Okay so i couldn't wait... I just had to have a listen to one of my most inspiration bands, Goldfrapp's new LP Seventh Tree. Blame all the hype and those damn sister blogs that keep raving on about it. Oh yeah and blame the Frapp themselves, they have been teasing us for SO freaking long now. How was that loop vid on their site? CRAZY i tell ya. Am i mad? In a way yes. I don't on the other hand encourage you to find the album on a file sharing network. But do encourage you to find previews and remixes of the tracks in all areas of the jungle Internet.

From my recent listen I would have to say that obviously A&E is a standout because its been in our heads for at least 2 months now, also others to look out for would be Clowns, Some People & Caravan Girl. I reckon this album will be talked about for ages. Featuring the sounds of the classic keys used in all Frapp albums and those floating synths that blow us away to another world. And that's what they have managed to achieve with Seventh Tree. A sound scape of acoustic-folk 70's and breathy chants that will have you sailing away in no time. It's a standout, mainly because its such a different direction to previous efforts. Still I likey!!

I just want to say this, the A&E clip is very Goldfrapp, down right weird and everything we expect from the duo. Now kick back and enjoy the clip as I did and pray for February 25th to come sooner....
