Pet Shop Boys new album...American release?

I realize that this album probably won't get the same kind of push it would in the UK with a video and single but are they planning to even release it here? I would be shocked if they didn't. Granted they didn't sell what they used to but I can't imagine a PSB studio album not coming out over here....Even "Disco 3" came out over here and did chart. Any news on this or do I have to buy an expensive import.....and if so, where is the best place to get it?

I haven't heard either, but their official website said there's gonna be a 2-cd Limited "special edition" with remixes and b-sides, so I'm holding out for that...

Yeah.. different... their next "proper" album.

But I don't think Battleship has come out here since you mention it.

The album is called "Fundmental" and is either parially or fully produced with Trevor Horn. The first single, "I'm With Stupid" sounds like it came from "Actually"...not a throwback to their style in the eighties but something that you wouldn't be shocked to hear was recorded in 1987. It's still very good and catchy. There is a lot of information about it and their website, petshopboys.co.uk, including a full tracklisting.

It's coming out in May...it was pushed back a bit. Trevor Horn is Producing (or is it Stephen Hague)

They are finishing up "I'm with Stupid" and the "Stupid" remixes...the single will be out on 45 as a ltd picture disk.

Album is entitled "Fundemental" and will get a US release....Like all the others.

I just heard that they are working on an American release. Let's hope it works out for them. I wouldn't doubt that Sancutary will release the album again.
