On Seventh Tree, Goldfrapp's newest release, the sound is sweet and slow, an imaginative soundtrack to a somber summer day in the '70s. Lush, simple ballads like "Clowns" and stand-out track "Cologne Cerrone Houdini" recall the band's eerie orchestral debut Felt Mountain, while the cheeky track "Happiness" is a clear nod to their electro-disco output that followed. Altogether, it's an arresting, beguiling record that grows on the listener with each playback — and Alison Goldfrapp and crew always translate their recorded material into enchanting live performances.
