In 2001, Pulp released "We Love Life", their fourth and final album for Island Records (now Universal). In 2006, their previous three albums for this label were reissued with bonus discs containing B-sides and unreleased material. Unfortunately, "We Love Life" has never been reissued and as a res...

I hate forums that have long lists of "rules" for people to abide by who just want to talk about stuff. I also hate forums with moderators with itchy trigger-fingers and an inflated sense of self-worth. There are, though, sadly, a few things which just aren't allowed. I really don't like banning peopl...

There are rumblings across t'internet that James Ford is helming a new compilation album for the War Child charity, 30 years on from the original record. Of course Pulp didn't take part in that due to scheduling (I think?) but then donated their Mercury Prize winnings to the organisation. It...

Hot on the heels of Tiny Desk, exactly the sort of show I think you'd want them to do if you've seen any previous versions. The usual format is three songs - a new/recent track, a well-known hit and a cover version. Pulp said: "We are very much looking forward to coming into the Radio 2 Piano Room. What will...

In the past, when viewing the forum on my mobile, the main topic list has shown as desktop view and required zooming in. However, when reading an actual post, the text has always been perfectly legible. It seems as if, in the last 24 hours, that the text is really small and if I zoom in, I have to pan across....

The full list of titles should "drop" soon. Pulp/Universal don't tend to bother that often with this annual ritual, the LP re-release of Intro being the main exception a couple of years ago. Fire jumped on-board a few years prior with a Little Girl vinyl reissue (think the most recent version of Every...

It sounds like Jarvis' ban has been quietly lifted

... and rightly so, that's all deep the past now isn't it.

I was looking at some music on streaming yesterday and came across a Cherry Red compilation that featured "Everybody's Problem", I was quite surprised.

Random Pulp videos get posted on Youtube from time to time and you never know what (or when) you're going to stumble upon.
