   Mar 22, 2010 · Released today (22 March), Goldfrapp's new album Head First is a glorious - if unexpected - foray into pure ‘80s pop. 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 · Bar that bright pink one-suit jumper, those thunderous poses and the occasional encapsulation of pop's own genetic map, Head First is the sound of a restrained Goldfrapp. Other contemporary revivalists are rarely accused of the same.

   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.
