Is Concrete definitely happening?

#1 Post by Ramzy »

Only, on Amazon they're suddenly 'unable to offer this title', and on hmv.co.uk they still have no artwork despite it only being two weeks away. It feels bit like it usually does before something gets put back or shelved - lack of definite details, conflicting information, etc. I'm probably just being silly.

Relax, Ramzy .... The CD will still be issued but you can't think of PSB without associating them with the word Delay. Perhaps the CD will be pushed back a week or so but it will still see the light of day, so:

DON'T PANIC

A life in pop is coming out on 30th according to Play, I wouldn't worry about Amazon their listings are often wildly inaccurate. Indeed according to them the Numb single features about 7 tracks including Psychological
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

Don't forget that one reason we know about delays is because we are SO rabidly keen for news we pick up on release dates and consequently know there's been a delay. For slightly less 'keen' fans there aren't dealys. If you see what I mean. Am looking forward to all the upcoming releases.

Amazon just lump all the bonus tracks on to one list and don't separate them out. I'm starting to go off Amazon, especially since my copy of Minimal on DVD turned up smashed half to bits!

Paul O'Grady had a copy in his hand on the show last week I think.

Well, you can't deny that, can you? A PSB release is not a proper PSB release when it's not delayed... :roll:

He did indeed. He had Concrete and A Life In Pop.

Oh, no no - don't say it, again... :cry:
"I think it’s an amazingly good album, I’ve got to be honest with you. It’s one of the albums I feel most proud of. But for people who don’t really know us, and have a sort of an idea about us, ‘Electric’ is more what the Pet Shop Boys are meant to be."
(Neil Tennant, speaking about "Elysium" on the eve of "Electric" release.)

Urm, what? Also, Amazon have put it back up as the 23rd. Maybe they just temporarily had a revolt in which someone refused to stock it. That's almost certainly what happened, yes.
