that i have to agree...lots of throwbacks into their quintessential sound for sure! good idea on the instrumental 8)
Left to my own devices, I probably would...

Synth-pop legends Erasure are at Number 2 with their eighteenth studio album The Neon, in line to become their highest-charting album in 26 years. The Neon is the bestseller on vinyl so far this week.

It will fall. Top 5 would be an excellent result, top 10 a very good one.

Greetings,

With Pet Shop Boys having come off a trilogy of #3 places, the prospect of anything higher than #4 for Erasure is abhorrent.

As for the albums chart, it was nice to see Jim Bob from Carter USM crack the Top 30 in the week just gone.

Retro. :)

Jim Bob’s album is a Post Historic Monsters era Carter sounding album. It’s very good!

Listened to half the album and its decent actually. A bit unlucky not to be number 2 but apart from Killers, those sales are atrocious.

Listened to the album for the first time last night. Not bad at all, a solid affair I would say. For good and bad you know what you get when it comes to Erasure. No big surprises, a bit samey but a nice collection of electronic pop songs.

Wow. 8000 copies! Bear I mind the multitude of formats they had too. Cd. Deluxe cd. Vinyl. Coloured vinyl. Cassette. You’re basically looking at 2000 fans.
