Re: New album Nonetheless

After an extended hiatus, it's great to see Neil and Chris fully committing to a proper music video campaign again. I never really understood why they seemed to view the music video as largely unnecessary or superfluous throughout the 2010s. As well as its (albeit more limited than it used to be) ma...

I'll take Boy George for the win, Alex

Neil replied, "They're not dresses. They're culottes." To which Boy George quipped, "That's how we all start, luv."

Re: New album Nonetheless

So that shot of a previous video shoot - is that for a third single? Or was it for Loneliness, but not used? And is Neil wearing a skirt? Culottes (again)?

Re: New Single - Loneliness

New social media post with PSB signing art cards uses a remix of Party in the Blitz... Remixes incoming?

Re: At home with the Pet Shop Boys

The Spitting Image song and video is quite amusing, but like so many of the parodies, the crap production and songwriting only serves to underscore how superb PSB's production and songwriting is. The only thing these parodies really seem to achieve is to demonstrate their inability to recreate the v...

Re: Piano Room Month - 2024

:lol: :up: enjoyed that! Everything sounded really great Wonder if that is the first time the f bomb has been dropped in the Piano Room? It was "Funk", iirc. I did have to rewind a couple of times and then check the original lyrics. Would have been quite funny for Neil to drop the F bomb ...

Ha, yeah, they've been on quite a lot, actually... In some ways, this seems the most 'visible' they've been for a while, notwithstanding (another possible title) the light coming out their mouths...

Artwork

I thought it might be interesting to have a separate thread for the artwork, but feel to merge if it's overkill. So, they're back on the covers.... This is the first album they've been on the cover of since Fundamental, isn't it? 18 years ago! Interesting to see the return of a classic PSB font, too...

Re: No headwear on Chris

Maybe his on-the-street disguise *will* now be cap and shades, and he's going au naturel when he's in PSB mode? It's a very Chris thing to do 40 years on.

Can't we get a hold of the Neilatron and start making our own songs...?

Re: Wednesday 31 January

Yeah, I'm not a fan of this new song at all. I mean, I haven't heard it or anything, but I don't need to. I mean, where are the 808 cowbells and Neilotron? Seriously, though, I am intrigued as to what it'll sound like. Muso alert: Major or minor, I wonder? Looking at Dog's list, every lead single ap...

Re: Wednesday 31 January

Do we reckon we're going to hear the new single on Wednesday? Seems odd to be on the breakfast show purely to promote the Dreamworld screenings, especially when we know they're going to be playing the new single in the piano room next month, but feels like they should have announced the first play o...

I hope this is the direction of the new album.
