Pet Shop Boys are set to reissue 2012’s Elysium as part of their definitive ‘Catalogue: 1985-2012’ series. The album has been remastered and is accompanied by ‘Further listening’ albums of master quality bonus tracks and demos created in the same period, as well as Pet Shop Boys’ own remixes of their tracks, including some previously unreleased material. Elysium was seen by some as a shift in sound and direction for Pet Shop Boys. Writing for the album began while PSB were on tour with Take That, with some tracks dating as far back as 2008. Neil Tennant said: “It is deep in terms of the sound—got a lot of sub-bass—it's sort of deep in terms of subject matter, the way it's expressed. But I think it's the Pet Shop Boys' most beautiful album.”
