Product Description Ten years since Felt Mountain announced their arrival to the wider world, they've perfected the art of delivering the album we didn't know we wanted them to make. Head First is no exception. Head First is Goldfrapp's most powerful trip to date, a speedy rush of synth optimism, euphoria, fantasy and romance. With life affirming lyrics and stellar production it lifts off at full tilt and takes us on a journey to the heart of 2010. Fizzy with inspiration, the brand new single `Rocket' is a goose-bump brilliant tune destined to float out of radios across the land. The diversity, ambition and direction of the new album highlights Goldfrapp as true agenda-setters and modern British musical icons. Head First follows the critically acclaimed Seventh Tree, which saw the NME describe Goldfrapp as `having done the seemingly impossible and become even more fantasy fabulous' and as `sublime, anthemic pop' by The Independent. Head First is the latest in a brilliantly consistent body of work - from the captivating electronic balladry of Mercury nominated debut Felt Mountain and its distorted-dancefloor follow-up, Black Cherry to the glitterball glamour of Supernature which came out in summer 2005 and went on to sell more than a million copies worldwide.1.

I guess Goldfrapp is another group that uses one of the member's names for the group name (see Sade, Alice Cooper, etc...)

Well if you never heard them, Alison Goldfrapp is a goddess. Simply sublime.

My favorite new CD so far this year. Back to bouncy 80s-style synthpop, with hooks aplenty. The last one was a bore.

Seventh Tree had its moments, but this one is catchier. It harks back to classic synth pop in the Vince Clarke vein. In my opinion their first 3 albums outshine Seventh Tree and Head First, though.

Agreed. Apart from the ho-hum final track, this CD is excellent.
