Tales Of Us - 6th album - 09/09/2013
Bear in mind that may be the order number at the store in general, not just the Deluxe sets. Might be 200 box sets, 200 cds and 99 downloads?

Maybe something could be done to improve our avatars slightly as I noticed mine and others are a bit skewed, they appear much smaller than on the previous message board. If you click on your settings/profile page you have an "Edit My Thumbnail&…

I'd completely missed that there was a 12" lithographic print AND a 23" poster too. Woo hoo!

Yep. I made it worse by pressing the view proper as opposed to mobile site and it went a bit mental n hid the keyboard. Galaxy s4 aint noones friend so I doubt itll let me play here. I've been using my S4 and my Nexus 7 (have to the new bookma…

How do you feel today?
Actually pretty good compared to anytime in the last couple of years (not just because of all the Goldgrappy goodness :-) ). Looking forwards to catching up with everyone :-) If you fancy coming up here one Saturday for a shop/bite then just yell …

I like the fact they're having to set everything with that bit more effort. Custom rather than off-the-shelf. Shows the attention to detail they're taking this time.

Ta, Carpy. Just looking around the new digs here... Not sure about the carpet but at least there's a lock on the door this time!

All a bit ying/yang. On one end of the scale loads of new Goldfrapp and on the other flu, sore throat & tickly cough. Thems the breaks!

Still me. Is that like Still Life? Great album (and welcome!)

I think it's a custom one - I've used all the font-checker sites I normally do (Whatfontis, Identifont,etc) but nothing found. If you look at the S characters you'll see that they're both different. That would be unusual for a p…

Latest Purchase....
mine would be a certain deluxe box set..... Yeah, I forgot about that....and the normal cd too :D

I made a comment at the time and it still holds fairly true. It sounds, to me, like two separate EP's. One is a good quality Goldfrapp release and the other sounds like the Scissor Sisters had snook into the studio and played some tunes. There…

Guys, how do you delete a post/thread?
Sartori sorted it over in the 'issues' thread:- To input a sig picture , its alluded to above but not directly mentioned - copy and paste the "HTML code" (ie not IMG codes) if you`re using Photobucket to host the pictures (for …

I've pre-ordered the deluxe box set within 5 seconds of hearing the preview video. I hadn't heard anything when I pre-ordered due to needing to do so Ninja-style amongst many of our bosses in the office today. It was only a while later I …

What's your most played track?
I've just dug out CAN's "Delay 1968" thanks to Alison on the radio earlier. Cranked out the opening (and very scary) "Butterfly" which is probably the opposite of the summery disco boogie she chose but both are still …

Tricky's a bit of a goth really if you ask me. He certainly does moody well enough & likes his black eyeliner :D

I think it just seems like a strong comment by her because we're so used to artists being careful to protect their past releases sales etc. Alison is just honest and, on reflection, realised she though HF was a mis-step of sorts. I think all th…

Guys, how do you delete a post/thread?
Not worked out the deletion of a post or thread yet but I have sorted how to kill off a 'draft' that you no longer need hanging around:- 1) Discussions 2) My Drafts 3) Hover over the draft. 4) The 'delete' cross is on the far…

Actually, it's got plenty of good info in it. How many films, what at least two of those are for, the style each live show will be and even a mention towards the book in the deluxe set. Well worth a listen and a boogie to Alison's choice…

Recorded, cropped, tagged and uploaded. I like to keep the skills honed ;) It's about 20min including the two music choices and the little ramble afterwards inc a final little goodie about one of the videos. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com…

This ones for The Carpathian, I managed to listen to Tricky-False Idols, really liked it on first impressions. I believe this isn't the first time that Tricky has paid homage to the Japan classic 'ghosts' either, great stuff would hav…

AAAHHHH!!! I ordered the deluxe box and almost wet myself! Number 440! How did you know what number you got? Did I miss something when I ordered mine?

Hey Carpy, Cervus et al how goes it ? :-) Nothing fights flu, a cough and a very sore throat better than some Frappulous medicine.

Tracks 3 or 4 from the trailer video but the first one, Annabel, is hardly shabby. Honestly? Any of them!

The Carpathian before and, as a clear sign of my lack of imagination, I'm The_Carpathian here. That small line makes all the difference :D

Good afternoon! I'm BACK!!! It wouldn't let me use my old 2005 username so I've created an All New ID AllNew? Extra minty for that ring of confidence? :D

Has anyone been able to record it? :) If they haven't I'll grab it from the iPlayer version a bit later. One way or the other we'll make sure we have it stored away!
