Pet Shop Boys return in triumphant form with their new studio album ‘Electric’. The album is the first Pet Shop Boys studio album to be produced by Stuart Price who has worked with the likes of Madonna, Take That & Kylie.

‘Electric’ features nine tracks in total – eight brand new Pet Shop Boys songs plus a cover of Bruce Springsteen’s ‘The Last to Die’ – and has a running length of 50 minutes. The British singer and rapper, Example, performs on one track, “Thursday”. The album was recorded in London, Berlin and Los Angeles over the last six months with one track, “Fluorescent”, written and recorded within the last month.

Neil and Chris comment: “Our latest album often evolves as a response to our previous album and, whereas ‘Elysium’ had a reflective mood, ‘Electric’ is pretty banging! And working with Stuart Price on a studio album is something we have wanted to do for a very long time.”
