First Listen: “Melancholy Sky” by Goldfrapp
1
After their disaster last album Head First, Goldfrapp is still trying to give it another go. This is a new track from the twosome. No word yet on the status of this track – if it will end up on the new album or not. But, it will probably be one of the new tracks on their “Best Of” collection which is set for tentative release in early 2012. Click below to listen to it.

Goldfrapp have come out of hibernation to make make a very chill slowed down version of Lady Gaga’s “Judas.” The version is starkly different than what we have come to expect from them, but it is reminiscent of their first album. Click below to read it.

Goldfrapp‘s Will Gregory has confirmed that they duo are back in the studio to record a new album. “We have tried sitting down and writing lists and having coffee to talk about it, but usually we just mess about, it’s good not to be too conscious about what you do,” he said. This comes in as both good and bad news. Good because they need return to form, bad because we don’t have much faith in the after the two past album tanked. The last one was just horrendous.
Goldfrapp have been dropped from record label!
The team that got us electro-lush way before Gaga graced the scene has been dropped form their record label. That is not only due to the fact that they have been selling bad, but also because their last album Head First was just a horrible effort. Nothing new or exciting about it at all. Here’s what they had to say about it: “
Our contract ended in August so we are no longer with EMI. We aren’t with anyone. It means when this tour ends I will have a meltdown. No, it’s very exciting if I’m serious. It’s exciting because it is kind of, like, ‘Wow, this is a whole new chapter really, what will we do and will anyone want us?’.
And we definitely want to do more work together and write a new album and we want to do some other things. It feels like an endless world of opportunity really, it’s exciting.”

Sad to say, but Goldfrapp’s new album still hasn’t managed to catch our ear like the predecessors did. “Alive” doesn’t cut it either. It’s sad to see such an act go down in the dumps!

is nothing but a fast plunge
Head First into blah.
Goldfrapp performs “Rocket” live, gets it right this time
Not loving the new album Head First to tell you the truth. But, we have never liked a complete Goldfrapp album, just the singles.
Goldfrapp messes up lip sync performance on live Italian TV
She looks disoriented a bit, but if the balloons were bothering her so much she could just back up and perform there or not move. But, she went and looked a fool with the vocals singing without her singing. Anyway, we are not too happy about her new album Head First. It’s just not up to par.

Goldfrapp album “Head First” has leaked!
Goldfrapp’s highly-anticipated return-to-form of an album Head First has taken the leak. Yes, the album is now out all over the internet. Maybe a sad day for Goldfrapp, or maybe the start of a new area. But, the album that contains the lead single “Rocket” has been probably one of the most waited-on album of the new decade as of now. Click here to investigate further.
Trailer for Goldfrapp’s new album “Head First”
1The album’s a-buzzing. Everyone is waiting to have a listen. Head First is supposed to be a return to form. By that, we mean she ditched folktornica for lush synth dance. But, if “Rocket” is anything to go by, the new album is nothing to look forward to. Yet, we are sure there is a gem or two.
Video Premiere: “Rocket” by Goldfrapp
Goldfrapp’s first video from the highly-anticipated new album Head First has surfaced and its all kinds of bubbleglam. “‘Rocket’ is a synthpop song performed by British duo Goldfrapp. The song was written and produced by Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory for the duo’s fifth album Head First. It will be released as the album’s first single on 8 March 2010. There was a music video shot to accompany the song. To promote the single release, the duo is going to perform the song on the Friday Night with Jonathan Ross TV show on 26 March 2010.” – From Wikipedia

“Genre-smashing musical pioneers Goldfrapp announce their brand new album Head First to be released through Mute on March 23, 2010. This will be preceded by the fantastic new single ‘Rocket’ on March 9th. Head First is Goldfrapp’s most powerful trip to date, a speedy rush of synth optimism, euphoria, fantasy and romance. With life affirming lyrics and stellar production it lifts off at full tilt and takes us on a journey to the heart of 2010. The duo’s fifth album, Head First is written and produced by band mates Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory and was recorded throughout 2009 in Bath and in London.”
