Goldfrapp have ditched the acoustic guitars from their folktronic 2008 album Seventh Tree and replaced them with massive synthesizers, effortlessly catchy hooks and staccato Giorgio Moroder basslines.

   Mar 25, 2010 · Goldfrapp - Head First. For those that haven't followed Goldfrapp closely, the 2008 transformation of the British duo from sultry purveyors of silky electro-pop to folksy troubadours with a sudden knack for psychedelic pastoralism might have been a surprising one.

   It’s surprising how relaxing and revitalizing the continued layering of Goldfrapp’s many soft whispers and murmurs can sound on top of the record’s most restrained beats, and it’s a near revelation in just how versatile Goldfrapp can be after the nonstop party that precedes it.

   What are Goldfrapp's flaws on head first?

   • Goldfrapp's only flaw on Head First is that they haven't self-indulged enough. The album's lead single, "Rocket," joyfully telescoped Kim Carnes and Van Halen while simultaneously displaying a distanced irony and wholehearted merrymaking. It's duplicated on obvious future single "Believer," the elegant "Dreaming" and the shameless "I Wanna Life."

   Is Goldfrapp a good album?

   • Alas, a nine-song album doesn't leave much room for error. Goldfrapp remain excellent in the studio-- any future work they do for Aguilera or anyone else (they also recently scored the soundtrack for John Lennon biopic Nowhere Boy) deserves watching-- and there's plenty of highly stylized fun to be had here.

   Are Goldfrapp a sarcastic band?

   • Goldfrapp have ditched the acoustic guitars from their folktronic 2008 album Seventh Tree and replaced them with massive synthesizers, effortlessly catchy hooks and staccato Giorgio Moroder basslines. If the aim was to make a more commercially viable album than Seventh Tree, they’ve succeeded almost to the point of looking sarcastic.

   Which Goldfrapp song has the strongest opening?

   • The strongest opening on Head First by a mile, Shiny and Warm throws Goldfrapp back into their Supernature territory of glitzy riffs and instant earworms. Here, a strict bassline and marching beat are juxtaposed against slurred and breathless vocals that sound like the most seductive of pillow talk.

   Mar 31, 2010 · Head First, Goldfrapp's blissful follow-up to 2008's much darker Seventh Tree, is colored by glittering hues and bright, pastel-colored beats, and while the album is entirely vacuous at it's fabricated heart, it still makes for a relentlessly uplifting listen.
