Liked them when they were skinny French guys who were camera shy but clearly obsessed Find much of Discovery a bit of a chore to sit through, too gimmicky and icey. But I LOVE "Verdis Quo". Amazing. Electric is a far denser experience than Daft Punk could produce. But I think the Daft Punk...

She's terrific!

Australia has had closed borders since early on.

Relatively low deaths. Hospitals were never overflowing.

You can't fly there for a vacation of course. Bad optics is the least concern, really.

It's really tough to order them! 01. Will-o-the-Wisp 02. Breathing Space 03. Invisible 04. Burning The Heather 05. Love Is A Bourgeois Construct 06. Leaving 07. Hoping for a miracle 08. A face like that 09. The way through the woods (long version) 10. Odd man out 11. Everything means something 12. T...

My only quibble with Hotspot is the sequencing of "You are the one" after "Will-o-the-wisp". On first listen it was just a massive let down. Yeah, I sometimes wonder why they didn't keep the energy up sky high. But in other ways I can understand them just wanting to slide into s...

I've gotta agree with the previous two posters - it's still my favourite of the trilogy and one of my overall favourites since Very. It has a darker, sadder quality like the best bits of Elysium or Fundamental - but its shadows are exciting, the way Actually or the Behaviour era B sides are. When W...

I won't mention Wedding though.

Still shocks me.

But somehow I defend its existence to myself, without ever understanding why it exists.

Reread the overly long review I did back before covid hit: https://www.petshopboys-forum.com/viewtopic.php?p=589285#p589285 My thoughts haven't changed too much. Except I probably mentally tune out Only The Dark now. I still think that track is impossibly lavish, but somehow that makes it a little f...

Lamest post to ever get to four pages.

Actually this format is absolutely perfect for a mini covid performance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUjXGNBFrrU&feature=emb_title I love the vibe. You get a mini crowd reaction, and PSB can turn on the theatrics for the camera. It's a staged performance, just more like an episode of Seinfeld...

It's a really difficult time. And very sad how people trying to do what they can do stop the spread are expected to be 100% right in their approach by a minority of negative people on socials. In Australia the lockdowns and precautions are clearly working. They've recovered from 2 waves, and are hop...

Och

Said it before, but Hotpot is the ultimate PSB “curse”.

I really wonder if they’d be cautious and postpone a real tour until way later, and maybe dispatch new material before hand.

This us great. He even chooses two tracks that are quite out there

I don't know. Might be alone here, but I think they stuffed up the re-release a few years back. It's a good enough track to chart for Xmas, but the mix tries too hard, and the vocals in the versus are so grindingly metallic Still hope for in a future year to release a new mix with warmer production,...
