Editorial Reviews 4 stars out of 5 - ...Goldfrapp's haunting, desperately romantic vocals are mesmerizing on their own....Equally serene and sinister. FELT MOUNTAIN is a beautiful album. Q (10/01/2000)
...[A] dream-like concoction of darkly erotic torch songs....brilliantly realized....Warmly recommended. Mojo (10/01/2000)
3 out of 5 - ...Epic, cinematic, nightclub dirges reminiscent of a depressed, severely doped-up Air....scarily satisfying... Alternative Press (12/01/2000)
6 out of 10 - ...Cold, desolate and old-fashioned....drawing on the orchestral ululations of Roy Budd and Ennio Morricone... NME (09/16/2000)
3 stars out of 5 - ...Fairly inoffensive coffee-table, cinematic, trip-hop stuff. Fleetingly pleasant... Melody Maker (10/17/2000)
...Unpredictable and crafty....specializing in torch songs turned epic... CMJ (09/25/2000)

5 out of 5 - ...Runs the gamut of heady passion, tunefully melancholic meandering and high-falutin' operatic gymnastics....a wash of tuneful accessibility. A must. Muzik (10/01/2000)
3 stars out of 5 - ...[A] netherworld of espionage soundtracks and trembling torch-song vocals... Uncut (10/01/2000)
4 stars out of 5 - ...Fun and rewarding....Goth-rock and movie music have never waltzed together as they do on this debut... Rolling Stone (05/10/2001)
