Greetings,


Is anyone else in the same boat and up the same creek without a paddle?

I'm in a different creek and have decided not to paddle. I ordered Dreamworld through Warner Australia who seem to handle the official Australian arm of their distribution. Whilst the note from the Pet Shop Boys ...

Greetings,


That's the 2nd "Due to circumstances beyond our control" in a week.

Suggestion: start taking control a bit more.

It has been a rough week for them. I can understand your sentiment too. Maybe it might be time for a bit of low-key song-writing or studio time... something which ...

Greetings,


Stop whining.

I'm not whining. In fact, if your comprehension skills were any good you would have noticed I was explicitly giving thanks for the quality control that sees their more "artistic" tracks find their way onto the albums, and the more "overt" tracks finding their way onto ...

Greetings,


Nothing abstruse about Bullet for Narcissus or The Dictator Decides, lol.

There's no "name dropping" for one thing, and that makes it a bit more generic, abstract and malleable to interpretation and interpolation.

Pet Shop Boys are at their best when they deploy subtle allusion ...

Greetings,


It will be a very long album track list if they should cover every tragic event globally. Some +40 tracks or more just for the basics - unfortunately. Album title "Depressed" ?
I for one am very thankful they keep their direct, naive "Guardian" style of politics off the albums (e.g ...

Greetings,

I find the whole "Why hasn't Neil sung a song about my favourite political cause?" line baffling.

Do we not remember that Pet Shop Boys once had a single called How Can You Expect To Be Taken Seriously? about how banal it is when popstars think that their opinions are somehow more ...

Greetings,




Anyone found it for download anywhere (legally) at CD quality?

More colours to collect!

It appears that Axis and Integral now have a new room-mate.

If you believe the lnk.to multilink above it's explicitly called a "single" there.

Pet Shop Boys today release a new dance mix of “Hymn (In memoriam Alexei Navalny)”, a song dedicated to his memory and cause, which was originally ...

Greetings,

Thanks for sharing. Very interesting. He sounds like a good, level-headed bloke.

It's fascinating to hear about how/when the Always On My Mind remix and I'm Not Scared were mixed, and to then reflect upon how they would evolve even further from there to form a third of the Introspective ...

Greetings,


Rant over, but anyone care to chime in on the narrowminded, hackneyed use of West End girls?

I'll be honest. Nowadays, I haven't got any idea how anyone uses anything. I pay zero attention to normie culture and hope that in return that they'll pay zero attention to me. 8)

But yes ...

Greetings,

Lol. Albanese. Dead ringer. Now you've ruined New Order for me.

In all seriousness, yep, it's time for a new album.

Retro.

Greetings,

I've never had Discography on vinyl, but I gave it a miss on account of owning SMASH.

I totally understand Old Soak's "who cares" comment about the colour of the vinyl. At some point you've got to draw a line under it - I mean, how many colours were there of Nonetheless? That was just ...

Greetings,


One of the genuine turds floating atop an otherwise glittering palmarès: excruciating, cringeworthy, exactly the sort of track you wouldn't play to a non-fan to persuade them what they are missing.

Correct. The quality control standards between 1997 and 2002 dropped a long, long way ...
