How was the album? The impression that I got from their live show was of reheated French cabaret music (ou est-il, Jacques Brel?) in a vaguely Portishead style. The Francophile influence seems to be so pervasive as to manifest itself in Ms. Goldfrapp's wardrobe (I mean, what's more French than wearing military gear with no obvious intention of ever using it in a combat situation?). On the other hand, reviews of the album seem consistently positive, so you never know. -rob --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
