Goldfrapp Readies New Album

Never a band to get into a rut sound-wise, Goldfrapp will once again deliver the goods when Ooh La La (as it is tentatively titled) is released in the UK on August 22. The album will be prefaced by the title track single on August 8, hinted by some to sound significantly more "glam," even getting compared to the stomp and pomp of T.Rex and Eno-era Roxy Music. This seemingly tangential twist shouldn't surprise any of the group's admirers-- somewhere between theatrical, precious balladry and soft, trippy, synth-driven beats we find Goldfrapp, and steeped within these we find the hyperphysical, yet downright saucy voice and lyrics of Allison Goldfrapp.

The hungrily anticipated follow up to 2003's Black Cherry was co-written and co-produced by Goldfrapp and partner-arranger Will Gregory and is described on the band's website thusly: "It's sulky, it's sexual and it's a little bit Ooh La La."
