They’ve been touring, making EPS, remixes, collaborations non stop and STILL, during all these years, they’ve been creating a whole new album. How they get the time to do it all? It’s incredible the creativity fuel in them hasn’t gone a bit, they are going strong and strong. That’s true innate talent. The artist I can compare them with is Paul McCartney. They are TRUE TALENTED musicians. It’s incredible that the PSB have been my favorite group since 1986 and through all these years not only have they never disappointed me they still keep me amazed with new material!!!

This!
I've often made similar comments to my friends and colleagues over the years. Michael Bracewell compared them very seriously to the Beatles as far as the maintenance of creative quality.

I don't "hate" you whatsoever, Nickname. I'm actually quite find of you. Your posts are nonsensical and contradictory most of the time but make me chuckle all the same.

I ordered one, but am torn on whether or not to cancel it. It was a spur of the moment decision to purchase as it was “limited”, though I have no idea what I would do with it.

I bought one of the signed Super screenprints from the pop-up shop in Shoreditch in 2016, but that felt like a real coup and involved queuing outside three hours early in the cold etc, plus it was one of 160 (I think) rather than 1,500 or whatever amount this one was printed in. I framed it and it looks absolutely gorgeous.

This one I’ll probably also frame, although I’m less into putting photographs on the wall usually. But the little artcard is even more thrilling for some reason.

Thanks for your response! I decided to let fate decide & put in a request to cancel. As it turns out, they did cancel it & refunded the amount. Truthfully I was feeling a bit guilty for having spent so much on all the music & merch (including Annually). Also, I’m not one to really put these kind of things on the wall (plus, not enough wall space!) I still have a gold Unity tour poster rolled up in its original packaging that I don’t know what to do with. Anyway, I hope I don’t regret it.

I am also really looking forward to receiving the art card! I don’t have anything signed by Neil & Chris. I will definitely be putting that in a little frame & finding a spot for it on my bookcase.

The new album art work is awesome such a classic image - an updated actually vibe I think.. can't wait to hear the new songs

Dito.

In 2021’s Annually, Neil and Chris mention that they’d written and demoed 15 songs during lockdown. One, they say, is about Soviet ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev. Could this be the nonetheless track Dancing star?

..and there you go again. Telling others what they think.. Making sweeping statements and assumptions as fact. You really don't help yourself at times. Now please, I hope you can look forward to a brand new PSB album and exciting new era !

The new album is going to be amazing….i can feel it. Everything about this new era has been outstanding so far. Pet shop boys never let us down.

Yeah. It just has a good feeling and vibe about it. Loneliness into the singles chart at 26 after 2 days is a really positive sign too. They are indeed, The Survivors..

Any signs of Japanese release?
