Pet Shop Boys Announce New Album 'Electric' Full Details, Share "Axis" Music Video

Pet Shop Boys have announce they will release their new album titled "Electric" on July 15th, and is the first to appear on their own label x2 through Kobalt Label Services.

Produced by Stuart Price, "Electric" features nine tracks in total – eight brand new 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. You can pre-order Electric now on iTunes.

About the new album, 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."
