On July 15, Pet Shop Boys release their new album Electric (artwork above) and we’ve just posted our Track-By-Track review, featuring a snippet of the LP track ‘Fluorescent’ – have a listen below:
Says Luke Turner of the track: "A moody, murky number and one that starts with a solid, techno-inspired boom and whizz, with a vinyl crackle too and what sounds like a sexual gasp chopped out and used as a rhythm. The whole thing sounds really analogue. This is shaping up to be the most dancefloor-oriented Pet Shop Boys album in years, and ‘Fluorescent’ in particular might lend itself to remixes, with a great street-lights-twinkling refrain now and then, and Tennant’s voice set low in the mix amid all the analogue whirling and fizzing. A classic Pet Shop Boys’ exploration of nocturnal decadence – ‘at midnight / It’s time for business… every scandal has its price’."
