Pre-Order Item. Release Date Subject to Change.Label: Rough Trade RecordsRelease Date: 28th August Pulp had a pretty good 2025, playing their comeback perfectly with a new album th at felt like a seamless continuation of their celebrated discography and a victory lap of gigs where we all agreed that maybe, just maybe they were really the best ones. And Jarvis and Co's year is documented as 'Live!' with a relentlessly good setlist of hits. Pulp to release live album and concert film “Live!” Is out on Rough Trade Records on 28 August / “What Do You Do For an Encore?” to premiere worldwide on MUBI later this autumn. Film and album document band’s 2025 show at The O2 London as they returned with No.1 album “More” ‘A concert is an event where songs come back to life. That's why this album is called “Live!"' explains Jarvis Cocker of this unique record in the Pulp canon. “It's both a statement of fact (it's a recording of a live band) & a challenge (come on! Everyone come alive!).” It’s also Pulp’s first film soundtrack album: the Garth Jennings directed movie “What Do You Do For an Encore?” which is to be released worldwide this autumn. Pulp’s relationship with Garth Jennings dates back to 1997: the year he directed the promo video for the song “Help the Aged”. When Pulp announced that they were touring again back in 2023, Garth got in touch & offered his services in helping to design the staging concept. Then, in June 2025, he filmed the band’s two performances at the O2 Arena in London. This footage provides the main content of the film. The O2 shows also provide the content of this live album. They were the 566th & 567th performances of the band’s career & provide a snapshot of a group at the height of its powers. Recorded the week “More” - Pulp’s first album in 24 years - hit Number 1 on the Official UK Chart, the album captures the very moment the band returned as a creative force. Old classics & new classics brought together for the first time. “Live!” will be released on 28 August 2026, suitably enough Pulp will be onstage that evening, performing a sold-out show in Manchester’s Wythenshawe Park.
