U.S. residents: Did you get your GOLDFRAPP today?

Finally in U.S. stores today! I got the CD & DVD combo:



Can't wait to play the 5.1 surround sound version on my stereo when I get home tonight. My neighbors are definitely gonna complain!

There is also a regular single disc CD for people that don't care about surround sound:



Both versions include the bonus track, "Beautiful" not available on the U.K. version of the album.

Read some reviews of the album here. Go out and get it!

Already bought Time Out this morning, LOL! I really wanted those pics. You'd swear I was 16 years old or something.

giggle The pics and interview is great. The article really captures the band for me.

This also reminds me, I need to keep up on my iTunes Music Store runs! I'll most likely buy this on CD cause I want the real thing (album pics and all), I can't settle for just digital here.

There's a short list of people who if they appear on the cover of a magazine, I have to have it. This is going back 20 years now. Yeah, I collect magazines like a little girl.

I save my magazines for some reason too. I have those big Rubbermaid bins just for my magazines. I have a hard time throwing shit out too. lol

I've never seen Anx post on a Goldfrapp thread. I think Goldfrapp might be too gay for him--just like Tori Amos and Morrissey. wink

nope, i like goldfrapp. i'm not a HUGE fan, but i have all their stuff, including this new one...i bought the mp3 a couple of weeks ago.

i was crazy about them when 'felt mountain' came out, then i cooled a bit and merely liked them a lot when i heard 'black cherry'. this new one is really nice. i think i'll always be a fan of the first album, with its yodelling and its james bond theme-sounding songs, but i like the glam style of 'supernature' a lot. nod

I downloaded it back when it came out overseas. I don't know why it took so long to get released here in the US. Although some of the tracks sound like re-hashes of their previous tracks (Ooh La La is practically the same music/beat as Train), I think this is my favorite album of theirs.

I believe the reason was the band didn't have the time to promote it properly in the states until now. Last year, they were too preoccupied going on tour in Europe with Coldplay.

The intro sounds a lot like Norman Greenbaum's "Spirit in the Sky" too. I like that song. smile

It would be remiss of me not to say that the DVD in the combined release has a lot more on it than just the album in surround sound. There is also a making-of documentary, lots of music videos, a photo gallery, animation and more. It's well worth the extra few dollars.

It's just that I feel like I've missed a lot of stuff in the past couple weeks. I spent so much on music from the holidays until my birthday, that I forced myself to stop paying attention.

I know what you mean. I have two Prince albums in the next two weeks to buy so I don't want to know what else is new in stores. It will just get me in trouble.

All my money right now is going towards concerts:

3/20 - Annie
4/8 - Van Hunt
4/11 - Regina Spektor
4/12 - The Sounds/Morningwood
4/15 - Ladytron
4/23 - Horrorpops

Wow. Cool. Lucky! I've only got one show, and I'm not even sure I'll make it to that.

You didn't know "Ultimate Prince" has been cancelled?

Fly to NYC! He'll be at the very tiny Canal Room. I saw Nikka Costa there last year. It gets very hot and sweaty. smile

No, I want to be surprised when I get the album. I've already heard five songs anyway, although not necessarily the same versions that will be on the album.
