Spanning 1996 to 2009, these 38 collected B-sides overflow with Pet Shop Boys’ patented dance-pop euphoria. A handful of tracks veer into more traditional piano balladry, but generally everything is kept shiny and upbeat, from the unabashedly cheesy new version of Discoteca to the after-hours swirl of In the Night.
At the same time, B-sides are a better place to experiment than albums, and the perennial UK twosome try a bit of everything with uniform success. They also make it look easy: this is pop confection shaped with an artisan’s eye for craftsmanship.
