It’s been 4 years since The Pet Shop released any new music (Hotspots in 2020) but they are back with what may turn out to be their best album yet, They have explained that they wanted NONETHELESS to be a celebration of the unique and diverse emotions that make us human.” And in the video (below) for “Loneliness,” those emotions are running high. Its just one of 10 songs on the new album, and it is also the duo’s first collaboration with producer James Ford.
“From the more dance-orientated tracks to the raw poignancy of the introspective ballads, with their beautiful string arrangements, each track tells a story and contributes to the overall narrative of the album,” said the Boys
