I'm happy to hear the album is mostly upbeat and not a sleeper like the last one but I hope it sounds 80s pop/new wave and not techno..... | |

Will there be an "extra tracks" edition of this release, as there have been of most of the other PSB CDs?
I really hope this new venture works out well for them; they've lasted a long time! | |

leaked....
2013 release from the veteran British Synthpop duo. Electric features eight new Pet Shop Boys songs, plus a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s anti-war track “Last to Die.” Stuart Price, best known for his work with Madonna and The Killers, produced the album, which band members Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe call “banging.” “Electric is very much set on the dance floor,” they said in a statement. “The album often evolves as a response to our previous album and, whereas Elysium had a reflective mood, Electric is pretty banging!” Producer Stuart Price said the album’s sound was developed via “various techniques between old school synth and drum machine programming and new school computer mangling.” “Thursday” features British rapper Example. Reviews: - …”there s more than enough here to prove that, left to their own devices, they still can” Classic Pop Track List: 1. Axis
Nick Ashford was someone I greatly admired, had the honor of knowing, and was the real-life inspiration for Cowboy Curtis' hair. RIP Nick. - Pee Wee Herman | |

Its DIVINE, its like a mesh between Introspecttive and Rentless. The Springstein cover works amazingly well. The Most Important Thing In Life Is Sincerity....Once You Can Fake That, You Can Fake Anything. | |

I'm very old school with these things, so I'll wait until it's published in Spain. Still, I'm very happy to read all the positive reviews, both from magazines and from orgers! | |

Can't wait to listen to the so-called "Cucharachas Dub" (I guess they mean "cucarachas"?) | |

Ah, this Japan CDs, always something special on them...
The album is great. I love the first four songs. It goes down a bit for me in the middle section, but goes up again with "Thursday" and "Vocal". "Vocal" reminds me a bit of "It's Alright" from Introspective.
By the way, it seems that the album is selling quite a lot, and is obtaining very good critics too. I'm glad for them! | |
