Pet Shop Boys Community

I think everyone should look at the official site..... www.petshopboys.co.uk

I suppose it still kind of says "Performed by Pet Shop Boys" on the sleeve...

It says on the official cover:

Tennant/Lowe (as the composers/performers) in big letters at the top. And "performed by Pet Shop Boys [etc]" in smaller letters below.

So essentially their names are the headliners, rather the group name. Nevertheless, it still says "Pet Shop Boys" on the cover.

I assume that "Tennant/Lowe" appears at the top of the sleeve because the CD is being released...

Therefore...

Tennant/Lowe are the composers
Pet Shop Boys and Dresdner Sinfoniker are the performers

Good-looking cover... anyway.

What do you know, I was right in saying this is not a proper PSB album a couple of months ago and that they won't release it as a real PSB release to avoid ruining the proper comeback next year.

Whoever it was who claimed he had seen the artwork and described it as 'not very colourful', suggesting the sleeve was similar to the black/white flyers handed out in Trafalgar Sq. obviously made that one up (again).

Love the sleeve.

Any idea if this is a Farrow design Zeus? It looks like one. (if Farrow designed the promo, then he probably would have designed this)

Am I the only one who can't access the official site?
I couldn't access it yesterday evening, and I also can't access it right now. Is it a local/national problem (I tried on both my home and work computer) or do more people get an error message?

Since I can't access the official site, could some kind person perhaps post the official site information (including sleeve pictures) over here? I'd love to see/read it.

edit:
*LOL*... Thanks

The promo is Farrow so this surely is too.

dVTB, the news/info part has not been updated, the sleeve has just appeared on the right side of the page.

A case of imagination running wild! Yeah I love the sleeve too, great design by Farrow and very Bolshevik. Will be interested to see if the record is credited to Tennant/Lowe and not PSB when it appears in magazine/newspaper reviews.

Thanks for the info. It's very weird: when I open the link to the picture in a new screen, it immediately show up, but I want to access the main site, it won't work. Do more people have this problem?

Yeah, I'm in Germany and I have the same problem every now and then. Occasionally it will work though. How odd.

It's the Mensheviks.

same problem as well which does not make the cover any better...it's boring and everyone could design it.
