Pulp are touring in support of their critically acclaimed new album, More, released earlier this year. The band’s eighth album spawned the singles Spike Island and Got To Have Love and was recorded last year with producer James Ford.

More was shortlisted for this year’s Mercury Prize music award and marks the group’s first album since reuniting for the second time in 2023 and their first album since 2001’s We Love Life. Frontman Jarvis Cocker recently appeared on Take 5 with Zan Rowe – check out his essential songs here.

“The day an album is released to the public is a very special day,” Cocker said. “The music changes from being something owned only by the band to something that can be owned by anyone - it can become part of people’s lives. It’s magic.”
