Whoopie f*** Do!

You Know, I have now lost my patience with N and C. If they want their fans and co (You know the people who actually buy their product and thus pay their wages) to actually BUY their new CD, they really need to start informing the fans a million times better than they do.

Give us news on the following..

CONFIRMED Album release date - If delayed, then reason why
CONFIRMED Single release date
CONFIRMED Single /b sides

Maybe even snippets of a couple of tracks.

With lack of Radio play and video play for previous stuff, the internet needs to be their medium.

Well as May is a long way off, i don't expect them to reveal too much at this precise moment in time...!

So Neil Tennant has read that:


"Never-to-be-confused with prior Pet Shop Boys stage musical, the catastrophic West End FLOP Closer to Heaven".

Poor Neil.

It's only because we have a/ People digging around on our behalf and posting unconfirmed information and b/ various people speculating furiously, that anyone is overly concerned. If it wasn't for that then we would all assume that the last info posted on the site was still viable. Right?

It would seem to me that the lack of further info suggests that things have slipped, as these things so often do with many major artists. If that is indeed the case then we shouldn't expect any further info for a while yet. I would however think something will be revealed soon - even if only confirmation of delays.

to be honest though, its a fair point. when you look at other artists websites then the psb site is pretty lame.

the very least they could do is confirm whether or not the album has been put back, it is not asking a lot. I think the attempt to be mystrerious and release snippets if info. is only gonna piss off their fan base, who lets face it make up 90 odd percent of their sales
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

Maybe PSB aren't sure what they want, maybe they are having second thoughts on a few things so wont say anything unless it changes...again.

All that said, it would be nice if they could offer up a few song snippets.

me, I want the CD as is, but I am wondering going by popjustice and DazzerUKUK if maybe they are starting to think themselves the CD is a bit lopsided going by reaction. after all it seems only the same songs are being talked about by the few reviews there are.

its a great site as far as content its just that the interface is awkward and clunky and the look reminds me of a drab sort of website for a russian gulag.

A total re-design of the site is announced to be launched along with Fundamental. I bet they are saving some fireworks for that, hence the small input to the site theese days[/i]
