Alison Goldfrapp - The Love Invention

[smellycat]

Omg just purchased with a purple vinyl. I think I may actually cry meeting Alison face to face…

Ive enjoyed the singles so far, and prior to ordering the album I remembered to check for deluxe/added extras versions of which I can’t see any. That said, wiki (which I know isn’t gospel) implies a 2cd version - does anyone know more about this?

The album is 1 CD that has 11 tracks.

The remixes and other bonus tracks are digital only.

I guess you can count the RSD vinyl as the second disc.

 

[Vasilios]

Maybe Rough Trade is doing a 2CD or some other retailer?

 

[BubblegumBoy]

The way this lining up to be a potential AOTY, would we expect anything less from Alison?

I like the songs but at the same time I feel like they all miss something cool/unexpected. A bit dated.

Yeah this is where I'm at. It's all fun and pretty but a bit too bland and lukewarm.

The album came into work early.........can't wait to give it all a preview x

Will always be a huge fan of the band, but I’ve been utterly hammering these tracks. Seems like it’s impossible.mp4 to listen to them enough! If she goes any further leftfield on the deeper cuts (like she often loves) are we ever in for a treat!

I kinda hate how visible the eye blood vessels are in some of this era's artwork. Really takes you out of the fantasy.

I couldn't find the RSD EP in person, what is the Impossible edit like? Completely butchered?

That’s the best bit!

I like the blood vessels too, they look like lightning.

I have a feeling this album's gonna be a future classic. I'm still in disbelief we're getting another electronic dance Goldfrapp album this week. This is the hardest 'dance' they've been since 2005.

I have a feeling this album's gonna be considered a classic one day. I'm still in disbelief we're getting another electronic dance Goldfrapp album this week. This is the hardest 'dance' they've been since 2005.

This is a solo Alison album without any involvement from Will, there's no "they" (but she confirmed in an interview that they haven't disbanded, this is supposed to be just a little detour).

I’d love to hear some remixes of the “official” singles. I hope a remix project besides Record Syore Day is in the works.

4 days to go! My excitement is through the roof!

Perched for the @2014 411.

Like, of course this is what it looks like beforehand, but also...?! I need some time.
