Likewise, Violin Thing... I've been around my office making sure other the Pulp fans tune in. This is a moment to remember.
Hi Stephen! So glad you're here for this.

Thanks! It's good to have been 'away' in that sense. Everything is fresh. It was great hearing the song 'properly' for the first time, having not heard a live version or anything first.
Lovely interview. Lots of fun. I don't think anyone else gets to speak to Jarvis like Nick does.
Moved by Jarvis's reflections on 'Mis-Shapes' on Radio 6.
"I went off that song at one point [...] But we played it and it's got kind of a good energy. And yeah, you might think it's from a brighter time or whatever, but maybe... it can make another bright time. Please!"
Is there a link to footage of the interview with Lauren? Amidst all the clicking, viewing and reading different Pulp '25 content today, I'm sure I saw a reel of the band in the 6Music studio somewhere online but can't find it now. Anyone?
All looking very fresh. Went to bed last night and wake up to the whole of the internet announcing the best news ever. Listened to Spike Island [single] many times on the train into work. Then listened to The Day After the Revolution and tears kind of swelled in my eyes. This huge passage of time and the history and love we all have with this band is bringing on feelings that at 8.29am in the morning I cant quite put my finger on.
Jarv has just been on BBC Radio Sheffield on the Breakfast Show. Good chat with the host, Ellie Colton. He spoke a bit more about the video and Tramlines (Albert Cockers band is playing). Also billboards with "enigmatic phrases" and fancy advertising for the album will be launched in Sheff. Lots of Sheffield talk in general. The decline of Fargate etc.
It'll be on BBC Sounds if you want to listen back. Slick production with instrumental parts of Misshapes and Spike Island playing in the background.
