The Pet Shop Boys are an English electronic dance

Three-time Brit Award winners and six-time Grammy

their career when they left their long-term label,
Parlophone, and signed with Kobalt Label Services.
A new album, Electric, was released in July 2013,

both countries.

"Axis", "Vocal", "Love is a Bourgeois Construct",
"Thursday" (featuring Example) and "Fluorescent".
The
duo undertook a worldwide tour to support the album.

working on their next album. With Stuart Price returning
as producer, Super was announced on 21 January 2016 for
release on 1 April. "Inner Sanctum" was released as a
teaser track. The first single proper is "The Pop Kids",
released on 26 February.

Super, would be released on 1 April.[60] The announcement

The lead single from the new
album, entitled "The Pop Kids", was released on 18 March
2016.[61] "The Pop Kids" was the duo's eleventh number one
on the US Dance Club Songs chart.[62] In July 2016, they
performed the 'Inner Sanctum' tour, for four nights at the
