The Right Price: She & Him and Goldfrapp!
Posted by adam in Right Price on 03 22nd, 2010| | Comments Off

This week’s Right Price titles are Goldfrapp for $7.99 and She & Him for $9.99!  Goldfrapp is an electro-pop duo from England.  Their 80′s-inspired new album, Head First, might be their best yet.  They’ve left out some of the gloomy synth of their previous work in exchange for radio-ready pop hooks that stay with you all day. 

Folk-pop duo She & Him probably needs less introduction seeing as how both members are famous in their own right.  Matt Ward, who performs under M. Ward, and is a member of Monsters of Folk, has teamed up with singer/actress Zooey Deschanel for the second time on the appropriately titled, Vol. 2.  Just like Vol. 1, this album has the perfect pairing of M. Ward’s amazing guitar arrangements and Zooey’s sugar-sweet voice and songwriting. 

Get both albums now while they’re super-cheap!
