Depth through surface

When it all comes down, the Pet Shop Boys are the perfect band. There has never been and probably never will be a more amazing hybrid of total throwaway instant pop-glitter and deeply multi-layered musical craftsmanship. Their music is ridiculously catchy, to the point of being total bubblegum, but underneath the surface is an ocean of depth that rivals any "serious" artist in the history of the world. They don't have songs, they have compositions.

Year after year, I'm in total awe in front of their perfection.
