Video Premiere: Goldfrapp - Drew

The new Goldfrapp video Drew hits us in all the right spots. It's music and visuals for all senses. Going back to their Felt Mountain and Seventh Tree roots it still feels fresh and new. From the new we're getting French chanson and torch songs with that special magic that only can come from Alison's voice. The video is simply amazing. Faded like an old album full of forgotten memories that were once treasured. Alison as the lady of a manor, walking around in a world that seems out of place and deserted. Flashes of other people; is it dream or reality? It's a stunnning body of work and a much welcome return. Upcoming album Tales of Us is out on September 9th and their new tour kicks off this week already; on the 17th at the Manchester International Festival. We saw their last tour in 2010 and will make sure to catch this one too. Have a look below! Thoughts? PS. This is the first taster of the film Tales of Us directed by Alison's girlfriend Lisa Gunning, which will hit cinemas later this year. 

Album Trailer: Goldfrapp - Tales of Us

Our beloved Goldfrapp made the huge announcement just over an hour ago that come 9th of September they'll release the brand new album Tales of Us. Here's the official album trailer and it's safe to say we're in for a brand new era! Last time around in 2010 it was disco, lasers and neon jumpsuits! This seems to be a more introspective collection of songs, in the vein of 2008's acoustic Seventh Tree and 2000's debut Felt Mountain. Music that travels to the inner core. The visuals are truly stunning too. So dark and moody! There will be a brand new single out next month so we'll keep you posted! In the meantime you can revisit our 2010 review of their Head First tour here! Oh, and the track list was just released here!
