Album Notes & Community Reviews

On 'More', their first album in over two decades, Pulp trades the overt swagger of their peak for a more subdued and orchestral introspection, dedicated to the memory of late bassist Steve Mackey. The production, helmed by James Ford, blends disco-inflected grooves and Gallic chanson melodies with lush, melancholic string arrangements and Candida Doyle鈥檚 signature keyboard work. Lyrically, Jarvis Cocker remains as sharp as ever, shifting his focus from youthful exploits to wry, poignant observations on aging, memory, and the absurdity of modern life, delivered with a characteristic blend of spoken-word wit and soaring choruses.
