Maybe they didn't intend on releasing After You? It was Jarv's idea to give it out as a present to us lot at Sheffield, the idea to release it might have come later.

So if they have new material, and a new album on the way as many do, then why not a 'new' new song rather than an 'old' new song as the first release?

coz that way there's on more step for promotion : comeback, gigs, farewell, new comeback, "farewell" gig, surprise xmas present, "new" single of an old song to test the water... then the second big step : new album announcement, new single, new album, new tour.

It's all planned from the beginning.

I for one look forward to their jazz-fusion version of Party Hard on the next record.

Mark Beech tweeted again, but this time says it might not be true.

So basically it's a guess.

I think that we can all draw up our own conclusions on this one - After You was never intended to be released from day one.........remember trixie sent it to us on here, so aside from that - no one would have known of its existence.

Performing a song live on tv where it was emphasized that "its their first performance live on tv in 10 years" or whatever....... cannot just be a one off. No dates in the diary etc......oh yeah I forgot were on Jonathan Ross.......

Whatever

I agree, they're obviously plotting something.


But that tweet is the biggest backtrack I've seen so far this year. (Yes I said this year, I don't want to have to backtrack on my backtrack statement.)

And now this: "Last word on Pulp for now: unless you're Bowie word gets around: leaks/hype/hopes from studios, promoters, distributors, labels, PRs etc." I like to think I made these tweets happen! Also would now like to backtrack on my "backtrack" statement.

I imagine, if they are working on further material, that Pulp will have only told those who have to know what they're doing and in turn told them to keep as mum as possible about it, "music exec" or otherwise. The band clearly prefer to keep things under wraps for as long as possible.

I must say, a reworked album of unreleased stuff is not a bad guess/suggestion. I think Jarvis was pleasantly surprised at the unreleased material when he was compiling the deluxe editions a few years ago.
When asked about new material they've moaned about how long it takes for them to write...they clearly still rate some of the old stuff as the interesting setlists in 2012 showed.

Maureen/Going Back To Find Her/My First Wife/My Second Wife would all hold-up to new recordings, maybe more 80's stuff too that we've never heard.
Add on the best of the 1999-2000 demos... it would be great.

But they would inevitably be asked during interviews why no "new new" stuff, why old songs, and in the end, that would tarnish their comeback i think. a couple of old songs would be ok, but a whole album with "old new" stuff, is a bad idea. And all of those songs are so different the record would sound weird.

I'd much prefer brand new stuff. I quite admire the fact that until now with After You (and I guess when Babies was re-released) Pulp have never recycled old material, always starting with a new slate. But if it's old stuff redone or nothing I'd definitely take it.

Wasn't Something Changed a recycled song?  I agree with the point that Pulp have tended to create anew, but sometimes there are gaps between starting recordings. Common People and Help The Aged were made long before their  respective albums, and there was a lot of We Love Life that had been aired a long time in advance.  Arguably, After You continues this trend

See I've been thinking all along. They were gonna call the next album the quiet revolution according to mother, brother, lover. They could make that album, that tracklist. The Quiet Revolution.

At the very least a deluxe We Love Life is a bit closer now, surely.

Hurry up and get to 1000 sigs on the Pulpwiki petition and let's get it off to Universal telling them that Pulp have effectively promoted such a project with the release of After You.

I'd prefer a WLL deluxe to a 'new' album of redone old stuff. Also, who'd play violin on Heart Trouble? Surely, they'd never revisit unreleased songs from the '80's they don't even seem to enjoy revisiting released songs from the '80's!

I do think the suggestion of them revisiting songs that half of them don't feature on - and that the other half have probably forgotten - from the 80s is pretty fanciful.

The idea of 'finishing off' WLL must be rather more compelling, though...

Didn't they rehearse all of their old songs since the reunion though? I remember reading somewhere that they rehearsed over 100 songs. Maybe some of them would work better recorded rather than live.

My Lighthouse/Dogs/Back To LA/Little Girl/DYWMA/Countdown/an, er, snippet of Master of the Universe were all played in 2012 so I think all bets are off at this stage.

Don't You Want Me Anymore was played?

Had managed to erase from my memory the fact that Don't You Want Me Anymore was played.

Grr.

For 'good' songs (as opposed to novelty ones) it's only that and His 'n' Hers that I missed hearing on the reunion tour. Not bad going. But still quite frustrating!
