2. Pulp Won't Record Anything New, Fade Out of Triumphant Reunion
This April's two-night stand at Radio City Music Hall was so so so great that Pulp would have been spared my usual non-plussed-ed-ness at an old favorite band heading into the studio, years after the heighth of their relevance, had they wanted to record some new jams. But they will not. Talking to glossy British music mag Q (how are all these British print mags staying afloat, I wonder?), he reflected on the purity of just sticking to the old stuff: ''It also means you aren't trying to flog anything to anyone - then you have to do interviews and convince people they have to go and but this new record as well! It was kinda nice not to have to do that.'' Nice for everyone. Godspeed, Jarvis.
