Review

Rolling Stone (p.59) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[S]mart arrangements abound: 'A & E' rides a bittersweet, Feist-style chorus, and on 'Little Bird,' Goldfrapp sings eerie minor-key melodies over a bed of swirling keyboards and trip-hop drums."
Entertainment Weekly (p.61) - "[D]ialed-down....Very lovely..." -- Grade: B+
Uncut (p.100) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "SEVENTH TREE is Goldfrapp unplugged. It is a digital folk album. It is hand-knitted synth pop played around a campfire on dulcimers and autoharps and harmoniums."
Q (Magazine) (p.103) - "'Caravan Girl' is bright, summery pop, 'Cologne Cerrone Houdini' has a languid, Serge Gainsbourg feel..."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.103) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[A] very English pastoral work, a lush and trippy affair with shades of Edward Lear-like surrealism and John Winston Lennon amid strawberry fields."
Blender (Magazine) (p.98) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Goldrapp's voice remains extraordinary, as witchily sensual as Kate Bush's, as otherworldly as a theremin."
Harp (magazine) (p.102) - "[T]his new recording finds her in superb voice. More organic/simple instrumentation and lush cinematic soundscapes dominate here."
Paste (magazine) (p.76) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Imagine Feist with more reserve than Canadian heartiness, and more interested in pristine sound beds than bubbly effusions."

Title Note

Acoustic guitars and slower tempos distinguish this fourth album from Goldfrapp's previous work, although certain trademarks persist: achingly beautiful melodies, hermetic and glossy production values, and Alison Goldfrapp's luscious vocals. The album features the lovely hit single "A&E."

The fourth album from Goldfrapp establishes a new direction for the electronica duo. While their previous releases BLACK CHERRY and SUPERNATURE were steeped in dance and club music, SEVENTH TREE is dominated by acoustic textures, downtempo rhythms, and swirling ambient soundscapes. Where previous efforts were seemingly tailored for dancefloors, SEVENTH TREE is a late-night headphone album.

The album's first single, "A & E," for example, has singer Alison Goldfrapp employing her light, airy soprano in a relaxed, almost conversational style while trackmaker Will Gregory layers subtle synth lines and effects in a way that's warm and inviting. The lullaby-like "Little Bird" is equally lilting, opening into an expansive, ethereal passage reminiscent of the Cocteau Twins, while the delicate acoustic "Eat Yourself" is possibly the album's most heartbreaking and lovely moment. With SEVENTH TREE Goldfrapp proves itself capable of pushing into new, emotionally effecting musical directions without losing any of its much valued sonic breadth.
