Consequence of Sound: Album Review: Seventh Tree

  • Anonymous · 1 year ago
    Do you all think out these reviews yourself or just go with what Pitchfork wrote.. ?

    Sorry you didn't like it, but I find Pitchfork reviews way to overdone to even read them.

    So no we did not "go with what Pitchfork wrote."

    I have to agree with you about Pitchfork reviews. I usually look at whatever lame number they gave the album and move on. Really only a good source to hear about new albums out. As far as this album, It's alright fingernail clipping music. At least she isn't singing sea shantys (sp?) as the cover might suggest. but yeah.. the rhythms are lame. I've never been so much into her albums as i thought I might after her work with Tricky

    While it's unclear if the reviewer has listened to Black Cherry or Felt Mountain, it seems they haven't. Supernature is Goldfrapp's worst album by miles. Very generic and samey after a while, and not on any sorto f a par with Black Cherry, Felt Mountain OR Seventh tree.

    I love the fact they change completely album to album, and still work.

    Couldn't disagree more with this review's conclusions, particularly that the music "fails to convey even the slightest of emotions." I find it dripping with emotion from start to finish.

    She's doing a very good Olsen twin impersonation. Music reminds me of more acoustic St Etienne numbers.

    a fan since their creation, your review makes little sense.

    "Don’t change something that isn’t broken." Say what? This review epitomizes the notion that anybody can call themselves a reviewer nowadays. Supernature was the biggest departure to Goldfrapp's sound. If anything, Seventh Tree is in a way going back to their roots. Although I love "electro-glam-rock" Goldfrapp, Seventh Tree is some of their most beautiful work to date.

    Wow, this upset a lot of me. I believe everyone is titled to their opinions.

    "Seventh Tree offers Goldfrapp’s best Bjork imitation....endless folk melodies and acoustic guitars rifts"

    I clearly haven't been listening to enough Bjork. I can't think of a single song of hers that features endless folk melodies OR acoustic guitars. And it riffs not rifts.
