Where this album fits

Career context
Released in 2013, 'Tales of Us' is Goldfrapp's sixth studio album, following their commercially successful 'Head First.' At this point in their career, the duo sought to return to a more organic sound, moving away from the synth-heavy production that characterized their earlier works. This album represents a phase of artistic introspection and sonic refinement.
