Pet Shop Boys
GroupeBiographie
Pet Shop Boys est un duo britannique formé en 1981 par Neil Tennant et Chris Lowe.
Les Pet Shop Boys sont un groupe britannique de musique new wave (synthé-pop, électro-pop). Il est composé de Neil Tennant au chant, au clavier et occasionnellement à la guitare et de Chris Lowe au synthétiseur et parfois au chant. Devenus une véritable institution en quelque dix albums, les Pet Shop Boys sont parvenus à élever le kitsch au rang d'art en alliant leur pop synthétique exubérante à un talent mélodique inné et à des textes faussement naïfs. Ces caractéristiques conduisent souvent les médias britanniques à les comparer aux groupes Erasure et Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), voire à Depeche Mode.
Les Pet Shop Boys ont vendu plus de cent millions d'albums à travers le monde et, de leurs nombreux succès, sept titres ont plus particulièrement connu le succès en France, à savoir New York City Boy, West End Girls, Suburbia, It's a Sin, Go West, Always On My Mind et enfin Love Etc..
On trouve des allusions à l'homosexualité dans un certain nombre de leurs chansons et clips.
