Cover story: Goldfrapp She’s not your archetypal pop star, Alison Goldfrapp, but we think she’s
truly great. The charts are plagued with young men in ill-fitting suits sporting unkempt, greasy locks, bellowing on about riots and such, so it is great to be able to indulge in a bit of camp electro-frippery now and again. Her fondness for saucy synth work and wandering around sans slacks give her the credentials to be a real pop contender and new album Supernature builds on the joys of 2003’s Black Cherry. We try and break down just what makes her so appealing. See feature, page 20.
