With this nods to the past, maybe there is an era starting and ending. ..

Well, what a PSB-tastic day this is! Loving Loneliness and all the cover art.
Prick up your ears.

But I am 99.9% sure it is the album version as the music in the video is about 5:40. I did a quick listen and I think the video version is the same as the album version.

Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I liked the Lost EP a lot. Agenda sounded much juicier than Hotspot. The Forgoten Child could have graced any album, but they hid it from the general audience.

The new single I don't get it yet. I listened to it once and a half times.

I’m so glad they have the confidence to appear on the artwork. They look amazing, and I love it when they have a ‘uniform’.

What a release though. A PROPER expended mix, two bonus tracks (one with cowbell!) iconic artwork and a physical CD.

Pity it won’t chart though.
Tbf the charts haven't mattered for at least twenty years.

Am I the only one who hears "F**k the loneliness' at 2:25 (album version), instead of "From the loneliness"?
Love comes quickly, but is a catastrophe and a bourgeois construct etc.

I agree with your first paragraph
As for the second paragraph: listen to it a few more times. It's not that bad.

Wonder if the photo from video shoot they posted is from this ? The multi coloured lights could be from the fairground but Neil is hatless in this video
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

By that logic they are also copying numerous other artists that have Nonetheless as the album title, especially American trash metal band Hammerhedd. :D
Have a look at my taste in music:
http://www.last.fm/user/NikacPokac

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
