	Goldfrapp: Black Cherry ---Ink Blot Magazine
		Alison Goldfrapp was always more than just a voice, but thanks to appearances on Tricky's Maxinquaye and Orbital's Snivilisation, she became known as just that - a disembodied voice in other people's artistic vision.

		Goldfrapp and Will Gregory quietly and surprisingly sold a jillion copies of Felt Mountain, a fine album that ploughed the somewhat over-worn furrow between the cinematic and electronic, casting Goldfrapp in the role of a new Beth Gibbons.

	BBC - Norfolk - Entertainment - Goldfrapp at the UEA
		Goldfrapp brought their infectious blend of music to a sellout crowd at the UEA on their tour promoting new album Supernature.
		However much Goldfrapp's music has changed over recent albums - substituting musical exploration for the promotion of a kind of public erotic theatre - their supporters don't seem to be able to get enough of their new, harder and more retrospective sound.
		Goldfrapp treated us to a brief 'hello' after four songs and a couple of comments later on, but it was a relatively straight forward let's-get-down-to-business type of show.

		Goldfrapp's Black Cherry inhabits a dark alley, bristling with urban menace and throbbing with a deep electronic pulse--a far cry from their breezy debut, which gently led the listener to a fairytale aural utopia occupied by Parisian pop, whistling divas and baroque masters.
		THis shows great prmise as an artist, as it shows that Goldfrapp is capable of trying something new to avoid releasing album after album of the same old thing that other artists that do similar music have fallen prey to (Such as Lamb).
		Alison Goldfrapp is one of the female vocalists who is truly unique, whos music truly cannot be categorized into the generalizations called "Genres".

		It is with some disappointment then that their hotly-anticipated third effort, "Supernature", sees Goldfrapp step up the referentialism a little more and eschew the more daring aspects of their earlier work.
		In essence, this is Goldfrapp with all of the frills and flourishes kept to a minimum, with an especial non-reliance on the orchestral drama that imbued the earlier releases with such power.
		Goldfrapp are one of the few bands that sound like no one else and this is a gentle introduction to their sound.

	CNN.com - Review: Goldfrapp mines pop's rich past - Oct 4, 2005
		Goldfrapp: Stage presence for sure, but sound is perhaps not suited to the live stage.
		Goldfrapp is always watchable onstage but her voice -- a little like Madonna's -- which is fine in a studio, fails to engage the emotions onstage where it struggles against the full, layered sound of a four-piece band.
		Goldfrapp is certainly different and there is obviously no shortage of good material in the band's record collection to plunder.

		Since 2003, a Goldfrapp visual staple--the use of animalistic imagery--has spread throughout MTV, London's Harvey Nichols window displays and even BMW ads, a nod to their live show spectaculars where dancers wear stag's heads and Alison shimmies her horses tail.
		Goldfrapp are going overground, taking their rightful place in 2005 at the cutting edge of flashing-dancefloor pop creating brand new greatness and inspiring a generation.
		Goldfrapp: "Number 1" "Number 1," from Goldfrapp's pulsating full-length release "Supernature," is a pure musical gem, uplifting and life affirming, with uncompromising glam-sex.

		Goldfrapp are Alison Goldfrapp (vocals, synths) and Will Gregory (synths).
		As an English duo who write and produce everything together, the new album, Supernature is the sound of Goldfrapp breaking through their own crash barrier, a strident, psychedelic, 100% uncompromising creative force at the top of their very own game.
		We create our own, personalized environment, says Alison Goldfrapp, and its more how bands or duos used to do it in the 70s or 80s, your own music, art directing your own sleeves, wearing your own clothes, which is unique compared to a lot of bands.

		Far be it from Goldfrapp to do anything the usual way: The duo (Will Gregory and Alison Goldfrapp) is known for creating timeless melodies and eerie atmospherics reworked with a peculiar, vintage-inspired twist and backed with cinematic, bombastic and often orchestral soundscapes.
		With their latest outing, Black Cherry (Mute, 2003), Gregory and Goldfrapp have found that their sprawling collection of aging synths is still more than adequate for turning up the energy a few notches — and many are perfectly capable of adding an urban-industrial tinge to their unique brand of melancholia.
		Their studio is crowded with all sorts of equipment, from a Korg 700 (“I use it a lot to treat my voice,” Goldfrapp says of the machine she uses to transform her vocals into a computerized howl) to a Roland Jupiter-series synth and various Casio keyboard castoffs.

	The Ectophiles' Guide to Good Music - Goldfrapp (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Goldfrapp is the duo of singer Allison Goldfrapp (also a visual artist) and composer Will Gregory.
		Goldfrapp's voice is rich and velvetly; it reminds me of the burnished singing of Judy Garland crossed with the brassiness of Shirley Bassey.
		Goldfrapp's lyrics explore the vagaries of desire and longing with idiosyncratic imagery, mixing offbeat cinematic references with lounge-era terms of endearment; it mines similar territory that Julee Cruise and David Lynch mapped out with their Twin Peaks-era work.

		And so, with true showmanship, Goldfrapp stumped their critics with an album completely polarised in style and content from its predecessor, replacing "Mountain's" melodious eeriness with a techno stomp that wears its sexiness on its sleeve and makes no apologies.
		One has to commend Goldfrapp for making the first convincingly sexy 21st century pop album but, as fans of the first album will know, Goldfrapp's world is one that revolves around everything to do with sex.
		However, one cannot deny Goldfrapp's sheer pop excellence on this album precisely because they are not hiding behind über-pop producers or former pop-stars-turned-songwriters, but are showing the world how degrading, dangerous, sexy and sublime pop music can be.

	Splendid: Features: Goldfrapp
		The world had heard Alison Goldfrapp before, providing guest vocals on albums from Tricky and Orbital, but we hadn't really heard her until Felt Mountain burst onto the scene, late in 2000.
		Splendid was eager to interview Goldfrapp and Gregory from the moment we heard Felt Mountain, but we never expected them to amount to much in a live setting.
		In the months since seeing Goldfrapp, I'd heard several rumors that Alison was...well, a bit of a challenging interview, so it was with some trepidation that I awaited my telephone conversation with Alison -- who, I learned, was already irritable due to a nagging cold.

	See You In The Pit: Goldfrapp
		Allison Goldfrapp's gymnastic voice -- from the dusky low tones to her eerie siren's trill -- first appeared on Tricky's debut album Maxinquaye.
		Goldfrapp hooked up with long-time collaborator Will Gregory, and the two created the eponymous project Goldfrapp -- drawing from influences as diverse as Ennio Morricone, glam rock, and 70's dance music, which is a polite way of saying disco.
		Supernature (2005), Goldfrapp's most recent album, which has yet to be released in the US, is a fascinating combination of the work on the first two albums -- sinewy and sensuous and danceable all at the same time.

		Alison Goldfrapp's vocals lie somewhere between the icy tones of Miss Kittin and Debbie Harry's sex-coated purr.
		Goldfrapp is what disco would have sounded like had punk not destroyed its cache in the '80s.
		The album thankfully doesn't have the alienating steeliness that makes so much electronic music sound as if it were made in a clean room, but there are some sonic missteps that could have been corrected with a little more attention to detail.

		Alison Goldfrapp is back, peeking out of the import racks on the cover of Goldfrapp's third full-length album, Supernature (Mute, 2006).
		Goldfrapp has never been a band to shy away from shocking imagery — after all, it was Alison's obsession with “tit tassles” that inspired the burlesque video for “Train,”; and more than a few half-man — half-mammal creatures have graced their 12-inch sleeves.
		But while Alison embodies Goldfrapp's persona both onstage and in the media, she shares the spotlight in the studio with Goldfrapp's soft-spoken half, Will Gregory.
