Jules. Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Any fans of them on here? They are "my era" in my 'yoof' I used to back my school books with copies of "Smash Hits" which had articles on the group Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I loved them when I was younger. In fact, I still like them. I was really pleased when I bought their LP 'Please' on vinyl. Just had a look when it was released - 1986 so I was 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 They were my era too, but I was never keen on them But I do love their latest single - can't remember what it's called, but it's great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I love them too...I've seen them in concert twice. Also seen Erasure four times, Human League, Soft Cell, etc. The Soft Cell concert was particularly interesting. I've never seen so much latex, rubber and leather in one room before.

Guest Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 And I used to buy Smash Hits when Neil Tennant was editor Mee tooo!!! Preferred him as an editor to the PSB though - OK but a bit "Sunday night telly" for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I love old PSB. I think their latest stuff is as good as it was back in the day. Neil's voice can be a bit hit and miss live but they really know how to make a classic, distinctive record. Love them. I also loved the soundtrack they did to the old film Battleship Potemkin. They performed it live in Trafalgar Square. I love that they seem to mash up high and low culture so successfully with no shame in using either however they see fit.
