Pet Shop Boys to issue expanded edition of Nonetheless
Cheeky Monkey Business
New version out before Christmas. Offers demos and new recordings.
The Pet Shop Boys 2024 album, Nonetheless, is to be reissued as a new expanded edition, on both CD and vinyl formats, in November.
2CD and 3LP black vinyl versions will feature the 10-track Nonetheless album, plus four new recordings.

The fourth single, ‘Feel‘, isn’t even out yet!
Nonetheless Expanded Edition will be released on 22 November 2024, via Parlophone. There’s no 3LP on Amazon right now, but here’s the link for Rough Trade in the UK.
