About this album

© Mute Records (2008) Released: 25 Feb 2008 10 tracks (41:25)
Seventh Tree received mostly favorable reviews from pop music critics. In a review for Allmusic, Heather Phares wrote that the album’s “electro hippie-chic is the duo’s most polished and luxe work yet” and named “Caravan Girl” as its best song.[5] MusicOMH.com reviewer John Murphy called Seventh Tree Goldfrapp’s “most subtle, affecting and rewarding album to date” and compared it to Kate Bush and the Cocteau Twins. [6] However, Pitchfork Media reviewer Nate Patrin was less impressed, and wrote that the album is “so subtle and slow-moving it doesn’t seem to go anywhere” and that its songs “coast on some frothy sense of pleasantness that evaporates the moment end”.[7]
In a review for Yahoo! Music, Adam Webb wrote that Seventh Tree “marks convincing evidence that Alison Goldfrapp now exists on the same artistic plane as PJ Harvey or Kate Bush”.[8] Rolling Stone said that the “slow pace can be a snooze”, but that the album “still makes for good post-party chill-out music”.[9] John Lewis of Uncut called it “brave, bonkers, often beautiful, sometimes haunting and occasionally ridiculous”.[10]
