Felt Mountain

Lieblich und au kreativ. Gsamthaft dänn aber langatmig.

It's not unpleasant. But it is quite boring!

Just fine. Never heard of. Nice listen but not earth-shattering.

Unremarkable

Modern lounge music. Very dull and not a patch on Goldfrapp's glam-inflected third album, Supernature.

Never really listened to it before. It's alright with some decent tracks but nothing to write home about. You can definitely hear the influence of Beth Gibbons of Portishead in her voice.

If a medieval musician fell into the early 2000s electronic scene. It's an interesting listen, I've never hear melancholic Electronic before. No real stand out tracks, but quite pretty I guess? 2/5

Weird. Sounds like music from a horror movie.

British bjork

This was good music for being tired on a plane to but I'm not sure why it was on here and I'm still wondering why the second Goldfrapp album we got previously is on here.

I listened to this multiple times and... it's fine...

Meh

I mean I like it but very background-y

OG Youtube wallpaper background movie trailer music

Kinda weird not really my thing

Was never really a fan of Goldfrapp and based on this record, I'm still not. It's giving Bond/film soundtrack vibes with the weird instrumental sections and her floaty vocals (which I don't mind) but the whole thing was just a bit dull

Feels like an ambient experiment, slow songs, calm sounds. Not for everyone in its entirely.

Album 708 of 1001 Goldfrapp - Felt Mountain (2000) Rating : 1.5 / 5 More electronica with a trippy pop vibe. Interesting but nothing I'd go back to. It had a moment or two.

Usually like this type of music, what a shame

Sonically interesting and clever. Lyrically obtuse. Melodically challenging.

1.5 Really didn’t enjoy this one. Far worse than the first Goldfrapp album on this list, and I was already uncertain the list needed any Goldfrapp representation at all. This is just enamored with itself, even though it’s not really doing anything. A lot of navel gazing and production tricks and not much else. Blends together into one boring soundscape.

Very cinematic. Very atmospheric. A bit boring.

Sounded like a movie soundtrack.

Jusqu'au bout de l'ennui. Encore un rappel que le Trip Hop est mort pour une bonne raison. Ce n'est pas insultant, dangeureux pour les oreilles, mais bordel quel ennui.

🎧Helped me doze off during a flight. Pretty same-y and uninteresting.

🥱

Maybe if I were in a hot, smoky basement bar in New York City at 3am with a half finished martini in front of me, listening to a drugged out, tired lounge act on the dingy stage. Maybe then this would have hit just right.

Wanted to like more as I thought I liked Goldfrapp based on singles/ radio play over the years. Found this quite irritating on both listens and do not feel like giving it a third listen. Disappointing - a high 2 but not quite a 3.

Pretty top-heavy, but still quite good

One earphone stopped working halfway through this, which can’t have done it any favors tbh. Loved Seventh Tree but found this a bit wanky

Boring as hell early electronic for the most part. Utopia was a banger though

Overproduced pop, a genre I normally steer clear of with some exceptions. This isn't one of them. Human is ok, rest is uninteresting noises with some good singing. Then the good singing gets weird just to be weird. Reminds me of college and the "I'm gunna be a pah-du-cah" crew.

Odd experimental mix of futurism and retro that ends up being kind of a boring mess..

I entered my review yesterday .......

Alison Goldfrapp has an excellent voice, but holy shit is this dull.

разве это электроника? похоже на кабацкую телегу с нотками футуризма

2.9

A bit eh, not really for me, would maybe tolerate it in the background but not much of it appeals to me

Finally, torch music for perverts fucked up on ketamine stolen from a police horse.

Boring

Moody without the punch

I was excited for electronic, but this was too "whimsical" for me. 2*

Fairly OK, reminded me Finnish band Kemopetrol quite a bit.

I really enjoyed about 5 minutes of this - pick any 5 as it's all about the same. Thrre were a few detestable minutes.

Lovely Head Human Utopia

Napišem komentar do pola, slušam dalje, zatvorim stranicu, nema komentara.. Ukratko, malo Portishead vajb, malo AIR vajb, jako puno sintica, i prilično atmosferično, ali mrvicu previše kabarea za moj Sibinjski ukus Kao vuče na trojku, ali bit će 2

Well……I listened. Sounded like mostly torch songs to me with lots of keyboard. Meh.

Sounds like movie music

This made me think of the soundtrack for some bad 1960's movie. Totally forgettable and destined to be parodied on Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Mmmm...

like Portishead (good) with ASMR (bad)

que mierda con deer stop xd

Pretty sure this band has like 3 great songs.

James Bond/Doctor Who/Circus music

Weird! But not terrible

All just got a bit too weird

It’s like a full album demo tape to get a Bond theme deal… less interesting than most trip-hop to me, I was just bored.

The reviewer who said it alternates between boring and weird was right. The weird parts were better it should have all been like that.

Maybe if in the right mood. Very elevator-y, but more harsh sounds. Ended up skipping a few at the end because they were too sharp and her tone was off key

The potential for greatness was there, however the choice to have psychedelic, French cafe, alien, clown music made it too strange for anything more than background noise.

Wow. I have listened to the more recent offerings and I loved them. I had never heard this album.....I'm glad they evolved in to something better.

Meh.

Bored me after 4 songs

Meh

2 it a little weird

poor mans Portishead

the whole time it just felt like waiting for it to end

I don’t know when I’d listen to this

Good background music

I kinda like the vocal style at times but overall I was pretty bored by this.

Even though I'm not a fan of electronic music, I enjoyed this.

Jos pitää kummitusten asuttavassa sirkuksessa käydä, niin tämä albumi silloin soimaan.

Felt like a creative debut album with lots of ideas and potential and but not lots of focus and polish. I'd like to hear more "Utopia" and less "Oompah Radar". 2.5/5

The album is very atmospheric, super vibe-y, great background noise. It doesn't really surpass that for me, but is fits that role very well.

2.5⭐️

One of those albums I remember little about the next day. Made almost no impression.

Slow and weird

The only point of reference I have for them is their song “strict machine” which I enjoy. This album was quite a let down. The first two songs were just awful. I liked the 3rd one but after that it went back to being meh.

Cool vibes, but so boring.

3/10 - pretty trash album. A bunch of the songs were pretty weird including oompa radar which just sounded like a circus. I sort of liked utopia

very different, sounds like something from the 40's or something. Not horrible, but not really to my tastes.

2.5

There’s a couple of decent songs on this but overall I was a bit disappointed. Lately Ive noticed a few songs on 6music where Ive thought ‘ah this is good’, and it’s turned out to be Goldfrapp or Alison Goldfrapp, so for a few weeks Ive been meaning to dive a bit deeper. This didnt sound like what I was expecting. A bit slow and moody at times, often sounding like ‘any minute now this will take off’, but it never really did, bar Utopia and Lovely Head. I’ll definitely still keep an eye out for these but perhaps not this record

Rather odd on the face of it but the more I listened the more it just felt dull. Lots of ambient sounds and weird noises but every track just plods along without anything interesting happening. Reminds me of a really bad bjork album, which kinda shows how good bjork is as she'd make something like this sound memorable. 1.5.

Didn't enjoy this for the most part, gets quite weird in places. Won't be revisiting this. Highlights: Lovely Head Utopia

This did nothing for me, and I thought it might. Disappointing

Dronene, og søvndyssende..

The other Goldfrapp album I had was the first 5 star first listen I had on this list. This one didn’t really speak to me

Ok - not for me though

Not really my type of thing, I didn't enjoy very much. Not the worse though, it's still listenable unlike antichrist superstar. Favourite: felt mountain. 2/5

sounds like a limp james bond soundtrack

I was not a fan. The common comment on here is it’s boring. I would agree. Maybe if you’re having a bubble bath with your ladies, smoking a joint and having a glass of wine this might be a decent album but I wasn’t doing that. I also don’t know why this was classified as electronica. Only the last two songs felt anything like electronica music.

Today's album is a weird one. It's like electronic jazz, or like electric cabaret music. It's not necessarily bad. It's actually quite interesting. I don't know how I feel about it yet, but it's definately different. May require further listening to give a fair assessment, but upon first listen, it was definately out there. Favourite songs: Human, Utopia, Pilots Least favourite songs: Deer Stop 2/5

Uh creepy

I wanted it to be a bit more weird and bombastic than it actually was.

Mostly boring, very weird at times. Standout songs: Human Utopia

Supremely boring.

My 2nd. Goldfrapp on the list, and I think I'll just have to accept that this band is not for me. The good tracks, are really good, but the bad tracks are downright annoying. Other bands do the same thing better.

Someone's review just said "Goldcrapp" LOL

Strange and focused on this opera electronicky sound

Very much feels like an entire album of boring attempts to make a Bond movie theme. 2/5

It wasn't really my thing – the tracks kind of bled together for me.

I don't get it

It all sounded very similar, like one long James Bond song. Slow lyrics, ambient quiet music, nothing exciting going on, overall boring.

Yeahhhhhhhhhh

Lifeless

🦶

Bad James Bond movie themes?

I have always been a huge fan of electronic music, even 25 years ago when this album first came out, but Goldfrapp has always fell completely flat for me. It’s not like I hate their music or anything, it’s just there as a space filler that had no real use or purpose. All in all, the only kind of gold this is, is fools gold!

Oof. Not for me

very james bond-y, hams it up a little.

Sounds mysterious at first, but it becomes a trick after a couple of songs. Blend of 60s/70s movie soundtracks and trip hop. Favorite song: Pilots

Honestly, its been 24 hours and i forgot what it sounded like. I listened to mom jeans instead and it was a lot better.

Nope. Not for me.

This would be the perfect soundtrack for some film. Interesting to listen to by itself, but I will rarely be in the mood to return to it.

A little surreal, but not completely unlistenable. I started off liking it but it felt at times like I was listening to the soundtrack of a slow paced story-driven exploration game, but with none of the enjoyment of the actual gameplay, like this was meant to compliment something else from the background instead of being the focus of attention. Or maybe that’s just a way of saying it felt boring and incomplete.

I only know one song by goldfrapp and it wasn't on here so was going into this album not really knowing what to expect. Going to be honest not for me too weird and the songs draggd on. Wanted to like it because it 2000s but just couldn't.

This album felt like I was watching a high school-age weird girl who idolizes Billie Eilish a little too excessively perform her bedroom solo album at a talent show. I was actively laughing at some parts of the album. Not bad enough to give one star because the instrumentals were decent at some parts, but holy hell this one was kind of rough to get through.

I can't think of any situation where I want to listen to this music. It sounds like it's part of a 2000s James Bond soundtrack. It's not bad, it's just an oddly specific genre. Some of the tracks sounded like they took perfectly good music and added obnoxious electronic sounds to it. The one positive thing I can say is they mixed genres together in a way that is unique.

Ritmo tranquilo, relajado, sin mucho que aportar. Voz sensual femenina. Desconocida y un poco flojo.

Cabaret nothing special

More albums I don’t have to listen to. 2 stars for Human and Utopia.

So boring

Meh.

Playable, yes. Memorable, no. Human was ok, the rest I could pass on without regrets.

Voice OK, sound OK, arrangement ??? Definitive not my taste.

I started this album excited, thinking it was going to be a fun one, but I just didn't find it to be very entertaining

A couple good background music tracks at best. Was not necessary to listen to this before I die

a clockwork orange ah music

Loved the music; hated the lyrics. The instrumentals were best.

I feel asleep standing up listening to this. Not my cup of tea.

I always get a little excited when I get an artist I'd never heard of. More often than not I'm disappointed and this album is no exception.

2/5 way too chill

2.5 a little grating

Oli hetkiä, jolloin uhkaava tunnelma puri. Ja lauluhan oli kauttaaltaan tosi hyvää. Rikas äänimaailma. Muuten tylsä, en malttanut keskittyä.

come on man, i've got two kids. do i look like i have time for albums like this?

Best Song: Human. Hate that this is the standard, but this really does have "Bond Song" vibes. Worst Song: Deer Stop. An actively obnoxious song. I don't know if the distortion around the vocals was supposed to sound "haunted", but it just comes off as though someone is fiddling with dials they aren't supposed to. Overall: The whole thing is just achingly slow and understated. I spent the whole time waiting for something interesting to happen, but nothing ever came. It feels like it's an album of songs intended to be played in the trailers for mysterious movies. On their own, they're far too sparse though.

Meh.

Definitely interesting, more of a background music vibe than something you’d actively listen to.

More electronic stuff I have no interest in. There were actually melodies and chord changes, so ranks slightly higher than the rest of this genre.

Je ne suis pas très electro, les rythmes sont lents, je n'ai pas fini l'album

Franchement pas mon genre de musique, en tout cas je n’appréciais pas vraiment ni la voix ni la mélodie, ni le rythme :/ Il y a eu une chanson que j’ai trouvé ok ! (Mais je pense qu’elle n’était pas sur cet album Aha)

Wonky cabaret music. Westworld-y

Was quick

feels like im in some fantasy movie? Not really the vibe I go for when I listen to music. 1.5

electric pop

Not for me, a little too much of…everything

The music is cool certainly but honestly really boring as a whole project 2/5

Decent, but no better than that. Very expensive sounding, and very lush, and very boring

Boring

Meh

Love chill vibes music but this is so chill it's asleep.

When I saw that Goldfrapp was considered electronic pop, I thought, “Great! Maybe l’ll hear something like Yaz or the Eurythmics” but this album is very different than those bands. None of the songs moved me. Many of the songs felt like themes for James Bond. Color me underwhelmed.

calling this electronica is a stretch. like james bond music if it was longer and more boring.

I quite liked "Lovely Head" and "Paper Bag". They were a little bluesy/jazzy ethereal. "Oompah Rider" was carousel music on acid. The rest of it was a little too meh for my tastes. A lot of the tracks sounded like the soundtrack to some 90's arthouse film that was going for a "deep" feel. It wasn't a bad album, but it wasn't much to begin with.

Couldn't do it. Like who is listening to this. I had had enough, looked at Spotify and Deer Stop was on. I was like yes, ok dear stop!!!

Came out in 2000, felt like it came out 50 years prior. Was way too pretentious and dull.

A cross between a James Bond and an American Horror Story soundtrack. Either way, not very pleasant.

Un treball valent, molt atmosfèric, eteri, diferent. La veu d'Alison és realment especial i els arranjament i producció fan la seva feina. El problema: les cançons no arriben. Fredes, es queden a distància. Com una mena d'evolució de trip hop banyat en més electrònica i més proper al pop, però sense cap tema que destaqui especialment

perfectamente mediocre música de ascensor.

Slow. I like later goldfrapp a lot more

This was a strange album, not the typical goldfrapp. Sounded more like some chromatics or other alternative type vs electronic. I skipped quite a bit.

Not one but two Goldfrapp albums are "must listens before we die"? I'm not sold. This one at least has "Human," which I'm kind of hearing for the first time in this context, but I know the sample from Kanye's "Freestyle 4" and the Tyler/A$AP Rocky remix that followed. Other than that, not much going on here. The other track I stored because it was goofy, so that's a consolation. We didn't need this one either. Favorite tracks: Human, Oompa Radar. Album art: I do like this cover a lot, and when I saw it pop up I could've swore this was the album with "Ooh La La." I was wrong. But yeah, this one is really memorable to me, it's been in my head for many years. 2.5/5

Dramatic, a bit spooky and weird. I would only select this for very few choice scenarios

Forgettable: I don't really remember this album at all with no heavy hitting songs to make you cry or sing along. Just meh but on the slightly bad side with a lot of the album being goofy noises and it flowing badly if anything.

The whole album sounds the same to me. And that sound is James Bond movie theme song. 2.5

Not memorable the other goldfrapp was better

nothing to write home ab

We have Portishead at home: 5/10

day 11. on this episode of “never tell me the odds”: the odds of me drawing not 1 but TWO Goldfrapp albums by day 11… what is this. I once again have no idea how to describe this. some of it has a sexy-mysterious-haunting vibe I kinda like (first few songs & Horse Tears), but it got too weird and la-la-la and creepy clown for my taste in the middle with Deer Stop through Oompah Radar. I guess I do feel like I was taken on a strange, Alice in wonderland type journey and I dig albums that can take me away, so I kinda get it. I think I liked Seventh Tree more, but I’m not sure that I’ll be revisiting either of these enough to feel confident in that opinion. 2.5/5 rounded down to 2, maybe I’ll listen again if I’m in a weird mood, idk yet faves: Human, Lovely Head, Utopia

I didn't understand the point of any of this.I didn't understand the point of any of this. I heard "Utopia" once by itself and kind of liked it but I guess I can't take a whole album of whatever this was.

Way too down tempo...not my thing

Interesting, but not for me.

Not enough action for me.

really spacey but just meanders for a while not much music here human is used in a Kanye song which is funny 2.5

Goldfrapp? More like GoldCRAPP

Any time I listen to an album from 00’-08’ I have an overwhelming sense of gratitude that my formative musical years just avoided it. 2/5

An interesting album, though I'm not sure if I enjoyed it. Felt Mountain has a very experimental sound that I think, brings out sonically the difficulties in the recording process where Goldfrapp was often alone and disturbed by the mice and insects in the bungalow. Yikes. Generally I don't mind electronica, ambient and trip-hop sounds but the wailing lyrics brought it right down for me. Which is unfortunate, because when there was no wailing, it was really wasn't that bad. Best: Pilots Worst: Deer Stop

Didn't do it for me

Two Goldfrapp albums in 1001?!

2.7/5

Goldfrape

This completely passed me by when it was first released. I listened to so little new music around the turn of the Century. It all sounds very sincere and serious - which kinda sums up that turn of the Millennium period. There's not a lot of joy here. Some days I just want some dumb shit rock 'n' roll. It got interesting with some of the Latino rhythms on Human. But it wasn't sufficient for me to jump up and down and act like a twat. Today was a jumping up and down and acting like a twat type of day. I should perhaps come back to this after I've had dental surgery.

Snooze

At times the music was good. At other times not great. And at other times it sounded like circus music. The music is eccentric. The album felt like it was from a Bond film. I certainly don't want to listen to it again, but it is better than a one.

nao curti muito, baixo astral

Sounds like some rejected Bond songs from the Pierce Brosnan era.

Wow, this was boring. If they were shooting for a dream-like state, it worked, because a lot of it was putting me to sleep. There was no variety here, it was too ethereal. Nothing stood out from one song to the next. Moving on.

Meh

Dit klinkt dit als de soundtrack van elke James Bond film en de bandnaam vind ik verschrikkelijk.

Very slow and ethereal, feels like it should be a soundtrack for a casablanca-esque movie

This is like lounge meets electronic meets movie soundtrack - nice to have on in the background, but I don't understand why it's on this list. I might use Oompa Radar as background music for my haunted carnival, but wouldn't listen to it otherwise.

Lovely Head will never not remind me of Monkey Dust, so that’s worth a star. I wasn’t expecting the rest of the album to sound like that for some reason, but it’s all in much the same vein. It’s almost my style, but not quite - I’d probably appreciate it if I was in a very specific mood, but otherwise I’d get a little bored. Tracks 7 & 8 bring some welcome energy though. 2.5 stars.

Interesting but a bit melancholic for my taste

A slow album aesthetically pleasing soundscapes A sad album nicely produced

Esperava mais, tem um clima de cabaré chic, mas faltou sensualidade.

Super funky and cool, however need to be in the right mood for it.

Not my type of music. Some songs were okay and it’s not terrible to listen to, just not for me. Favourite song: - Utopia

Loved the first song, then song by song the album lost me. Good voice just sort of meh overall.

Cinematic triphop. At times the atmosphere created is magnificent, but more often than not the music fades into the background to the point that I didn't even notice when the album had finished.

This sounds like a collection of theme songs to movies I’ve never seen. I feel strangely emotionally severed from this record and despite beautiful moments I need to remind myself to keep focused on the songs… Quite often in fact. Pretty sure I’ve heard “Oompah Radar” in RuneScape at some point.

I liked it more than I expected to. I hate electronica as a genre in general so this is still a bad album, but it was very melodic and dark so I enjoyed it in that regard.

I've never heard of this group before but I like their name. oh i just went on wikipedia and found out that the lead singers last name is goldfrapp. that's pretty dope. I like her make up on the album cover. I think i like pilots. slow not super upbeat, very cinematic. it's giving james bond. i hate oompah radar. it's a 2

Sleepy

Wie Portishead, nur wesentlich flacher. Dafür zugänglicher. Aber will man das bei derlei komponierter Musik überhaupt?

New one for me. Modern take on Cabaret and pop standards with a more atmospheric soundscape. Tough to be honest it does like the B sides of a James Bond film soundtrack.

Not a fan of the musical style, but I recognize that they’re talented.

not for me

I literally almost fell asleep.

Too high pitched, hurt my ears

Just a bit too creepy electronic for me

Paired well with the rainy drive this morning. Doubtful I would listen to again

Strangely ethereal warbling. Not unpleasant, but does nothing for me.

dromerige, licht verteerbare muziek. Voor mij vooral achtergrondmuziek

Ei lähteny

I was going to say Portishead did it better, but as this thing goes on, it just gets more and more odd, in a way that Portishead isn't. It's definitely got its own thing going on, but it's a thing that I frequently found irritating.

Boring

N O I A

Not bad album very cinematic and the vocals are really nice

Too slow for me

Put together by an insane circus ringmaster

nice production. Found nothing in it beyond that.

was expecting to like this more than i did. think they found their stride on the next album.

Alison Goldfrapp's voice is amazing. Has a very trip hop, portishead vibe. Bit boring in parts

Pretty but overall kind of boring me to sleep. I like utopia and the first track!

Not an album of many words, however the instruments and sounds used create an eerie and off-putting feel. This isnt the sort of music that I would put onto a playlist however I see some of the appeal. This album is a 4/10. Favorite song(s): Utopia

J'aurais payé si cher pour ne jamais avoir affaire au trip-hop.

I have absolutely no idea when anyone would choose to listen to this

Goldfrapp reminds me of nothing as much as Portishead, minus the hip hop trappings, the edginess and the haunting and haunted quality of Beth Gibbons' voice. Instead we get Allison Goldfrapp, who is inoffensive but not especially evocative. That pretty much describes the music as well, which like Portishead is based on torch songs, exotica, spy soundtracks, and other assorted 50s and early 60s ephemera. I mean, this is not badly written or arranged, but it's been done before and much better. Felt Mountain is unforgivably bland. I never thought I'd say this, but I sorely miss the hip hop influence.

Not really my style but it was alright. By the end I had had enough.

nice but nothing essential. Pleasant background noise.

meh

4

It felt like I was listening to a Bond soundtrack or something inspired by the circus at times. Admiringly this was one of my least favorite so far.

I feel like I've walked in on a David Lynch listening party. "Deliciously weird" as she calls herself. Like Madonna says, this is borderline.

Zu viel Geld für sowas - 2

This is like if Portishead was sadder and worse

not my THANGGG

It's a genre I like so I want to give it 3 stars but it's seriously so annoying I can't

Not my thing.

Not a big fan of this album. It was too weird for me.

Somethig different. This music is very special. I do not know if I like it or not.

Not great. Not. Great.

I wasn't totally impressed.

Ultra sexy sheek

most of it sounds like it belongs with a Bond movie from the 70s

Appreciate this but didn’t really like it. Their later stuff is more my style.

This was too weird for me, Felt like nonsense. 2/5.

I was forewarned that opening track whistled so it was skipped. No need for it!. I think I should have skipped second track as well. What a miserable voice. All the way through such a miserable whiney voice. Im sure it would be a nice voice if it sang rather than whined and whispered. Bloody annoying. Helped it along a bit. Most miserable oompah Ive ever heard. Overall it was pretty shit. Those breathy vocals, I honestly thought she was having an asthma attack. Whatever they were trying to achieve , they failed unless the aim was to have a really irritating album.

Almost some decent songs

I'm believing more and more that this album list is heavily-biased by whatever pedantic hipster who wrote it got a chip on their shoulder that their favorite deep-cut music was considered pretentious and bad.

“Goldfrapp are renowned for their trailblazing shapeshifting from cinematic minimalism to bold, glittering synth-pop, with a sound that’s defined by constant reinvention.“ Let me translate this: these ppl don’t know what they’re doing & what they’re doing is so boring. Snobby pretentious “gallery people” probably listen to this to feel superior to the lesser artists like SKA or some shit.

They probably meant to put Goldfinger

Did not like this.

267. ok

bronze crap

It's getting harder and harder to want to login and review these albums. There's just so many that don't deserve a spot on this list and this is another one. Are Goldfrapp talented, sure, but is this an album that everyone should listen to once because it's groundbreaking and chock full of goodness? No. The opening track from the 1940's sets the table. Apparently "Lovely Head" was popular somewhere as it has 17M listens, it's never touched a radio wave in the USA nor did it deserve to. Then it's followed up by the true snoozer "Paper Bag", and the Bond song "Human, with 1950's strings and arrangement. Shirley Bassey deserves royalties. What century was this released? "Pilots" is pretty, and I can see her laying across the piano in the black & white movie while Humphrey Bogart looks at her like a pedo, but there is nothing that separates this from something that was already done a half century before. The rest isn't worth commenting on. I was literally bored out of my skull listening to this drivel. I had to ask Spotify to exclude them from my taste profile just so they don't pop up in the future. This album blows, holy cow, what hell?! Monotone, no hits, boring, no defining moment, no influence that I am aware of outside of France, no soul. This gets one star, I felt like this was pointless from start to finish with ZERO payoff and no challenges.

No thank you

Jesus. One is enough. One star should remind the compilers of this.

From the first minute this album is awful and doesn't improve. 1 star or F-.

Maybe im just not in the right headspace but trying to understand who would listen to this not as part of a sexy spy film soundtrack. Who turns this on, on a random day?

listening to this was like turn up the volume on elevator music only to realize it was bad so turning it back down, then turning it up again and remembering why you turned it down and then turning it up because the next song sounds interesting except it's actually not so you turn it down again but then

Deer Stop is going into my hall of fame of most god awful "songs"

Weird and boring

1/2

Even people who like this type of music don't like this shit.

Meh

Was worried I was going to fall asleep the entire runtime. At least it doesn't drag on for too long, but incredibly boring and basic.

Not my type of music

Annoying.

Good lord. We've been in a slump with these records lately. These 2000s records are just so uninspiring. There has to be good stuff somewhere in this era but it's not on Felt Mountain that's for sure. Dull, repetitive, and way too pretentious for it's own good.

Et downtempo-album her. Ikke helt på nivå med Ray of Light. Rett og slett for kjedelig for meg i skrivende øyeblikk. Top 3: Utopia, Lovely Head, Paper Bag

Felt mountain? More like felt longer than 39 minutes mountain! I did like that it was a little spooky sometimes

I don’t know about this one - I wasn’t too into it unfortunately.

Tedious and boring

Klang zu Beginn wie ein Bond Soundtrack, wurde aber zunehmend schlechter und das letzte Drittel nur noch schwer erträglich. Hat leider dann nicht mehr für die 2 gereicht.

I was not expecting ambient electronica based on my previous Goldfrapp experience, but it's what I got. I cannot believe you would do this Alison Goldfrapp.

Where did the author find these

Could not stay awake long enough to enjoy any of this

Yeah.....not too sure I can wrap my head around this one or why it would be considered for the Top 1001 list. Utopia was probably the best track of them all to me, but I might even consider that a stretch.

Imagine the worst James Bond theme song and then add an electronica vibe to it Tapped out after 4 songs. I couldn’t myself through that

Awful

I live in New England where we have a kind of milkshake called a frappe. (pronounced frap) Frappes are delicious, creamy, and I feel better after drinking one. This album is like drinking a frappe a little too fast and getting an ice cream headache that go away for forty-five minutes.

Ughhhh

No just no!

Unremarkable

Boring

Nothing really to note. Pretty boring album with no particular standout tracks.

I dont really have an ear for appreciating songs in this style unfortunately. It felt too flat and drony.

Painfully slow and boring

Track 1: Is this a Bond theme tryout? Tracks 2 through 4: See comment 1. Track 5: What? Bad.

Seems like bizarre background music, not my vibe

Nope.

0 of 5 I tried. It hurt my ears so bad. I could not make it through sorry.

Went my whole life thinking goldfrapp were a pop duo. They are in fact this nonsense
