Black Cherry builds on Goldfrapp's trademark experimental edges by adding the sounds and energy of the city, the whirl of fairgrounds, and the rush of desire. From the heartbroken beauty of the title track and the inordinately sensual, disturbed purr of "Deep Honey" to the sonic whirlpools of "Tiptoe," Black Cherry reinforces Goldfrapp's siren-like ability to suck you into other realms. On first listen, the driving bass lines of "Train" or "Strict Machine," or the playfully, joyously sexual "Twist," seem a world away from some of Felt Mountain's atmospherics, but anyone who witnessed the energy and potent intensity of their live shows would recognize the feeling behind them.
