Editorial Reviews

Product Description

There aren't many British female singers who do their own thing with unapologetic flair, eccentric lyrics and outspoken abandon. Women like Moloko's Roisin Murphy, Garbage's Shirley Manson, and Goldfrapp's Alison Goldfrapp, who releases her third album in collaboration with band mate, co-writer and producer, Will Gregory. Supernature follows their Mercury Prize nominated debut release Felt Mountain in 2000 and 2003’s Black Cherry. The new album is the sound of Goldfrapp breaking through their own crash barrier - an uncompromising, psychedelic, electro-glam, creative force at the top of their very own game. Supernature is a triumph; a combination of electronics and decadence, soaring, sneering vocals and high drama, which references pretty much every glamorous, dark, witty, twisted bit of pop produced over the last 20 years. Mute. 2005.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular!, August 23, 2005

By	Melissa Niksic (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I didn't think that Goldfrapp would be able to top "Black Cherry," but I was wrong. "Supernature" is absolutely fantastic...every single song on the album is wonderful! From the flirtatious "Ooh La La" to the dreamy "Fly Me Away," all the music has a sultry yet poppy feel to it, which definitely is not a bad thing. I would describe "Supernature" as primarily a dance album, but it has elements of techno, electronica, and (believe it or not) even a little disco! It is the best album I've heard in a long time. I can't stop listening to it, and I hope that Goldfrapp visits Chicago soon, because I would love to see them in concert!

2.0 out of 5 stars Repetitive boring electronica., August 18, 2009

By	Sandy R (California) - See all my reviews

The album is sterile, cold, dull, repetitive electronica, with a passionless vocal track. If that's what you like, you'll like this. It doesn't do anything for me. It doesn't repel me (like rap), but provides nothing of interest for future listening.
