- An in-depth look at the new album (set for release in Spring 2024) including artwork, lyrics, and a diary of the creative process with commentary from PSB.
- A feature about the album cover photo-session.
- An interview with James Ford, producer of the album.
No CD though.. a few demos of tracks that ended up the album would have been welcomed with open arms.. oh well.
Sounds to me as if they will feature on the cover this time... well, it's clearly not just a graphic treatment anyway.
Any news on James Ford album?

Re: Any news on James Ford album?
Haven't been paying that much attention to the official page lately, so I don't know when it happened - but has the main logo font (the one in the upper left corner) changed recently? Might be an indicator of the upcoming visuals / artwork.
Have a look at my taste in music:

That’s the thing about negative energy, about hatred. It can be positive. It throws into relief all the things you know you like. It tells you, by elimination, what you’re about. Sometimes you can only define yourself by what you hate. Hatred becomes an inspiration; it makes you think, “What I’m doing now I totally believe in, and I don’t care what other people say.” Guided by hatred, you don’t have to follow the herd. - Neil Tennant

Re: Any news on James Ford album?
There should be some kind of single released or announced soon, no?

A photo session for the album cover.
Seems like the cover will feature the Boys.

I think they mean the one in the top left on the store maybe, it’s been a sort of heavy DINish uppercase typeface for a few months. Although I just assumed that was a default for the platform that hosts the online store.jules wrote: Thu 14 Dec 2023, 8:46 amWhere exactly ?

They have to do something different from hotspot, it has to be more sophisticated with new crazy outfits.

It's an image file, called.... petshopboys-logo-uppercase-black.png
Looks like DIN heavy to me as well.

I hope they’re moving on from DIN for this new album, it’s been DIN to death since Dreamland came out.

I’d like to see them do something Brailley but I think Farrow have probably had their fill of Braille with all their Spiritualized sleeves.
