There are four very good Goldfrapp songs on Black Cherry. Distressingly, the rest is either forgettable filler or outright nauseating. The good tunes would have made for a fun EP. The rest make for a journey into boredom and sewage. Of the good tunes, I especially like 'Hairy Trees' and 'Strict Machine' (of course). The latter tune hints at the energetic brilliance of the followup album 'Supernature', which I love and suggest to one and all. The other two tunes I enjoy are 'Train' and 'Black Cherry'. Skip the rest. 'Twist' is particularly terrible. Clearly, this is an experimental album from a band duo in transition, with manically mixed results.
