Pet Shop Boys premiere the new video for the reggaeton inflected Los Evo Jedis remix of the single "Twenty-something" on Noisey. View video HERE and share HERE. Noisey describes "Dealing with the very Pet Shop Boys-esque concerns of battling against the cyclical inevitability of inner-city life, it pulls of the rare trick of packing a message and looking as good as it sounds."

The single and the remix are part of digital bundles now available in the U.S. Additional new bonus tracks include "The white dress," "Wiedersehen" featuring backing vocals from Rufus Wainwright and a remix by Swedish DJ/producer Kornél Kovács .

The duo have announced the first leg of the "Super" world tour starting on October 21 in Las Vegas. The 27-day run includes shows in the U.S., Canada, Germany, Holland, Denmark and Russia and are on sale now-tickets available HERE. More dates including U.K. shows will be announced later this year. The band will be playing songs from their storied career as well as the critically acclaimed new album, Super.

The "Super" tour will be staged by long-time Pet Shop Boys designer Es Devlin and choreographer Lynne Page and will follow their sold-out residency of four nights at the Royal Opera House in London July 20-23. The band is collaborating for live music arrangements with Stuart Price, who produced and mixed their latest album along with 2013's Electric. Over the last 25 years Pet Shop Boys have gained a reputation as innovators of the modern live music show. They were among the first to integrate multimedia and theatrical elements into their productions, and they have collaborated with Derek Jarman, Zaha Hadid and Sam Taylor Johnson.

Super entered the official U.K. Album Charts at #3 marking the duo's 16th U.K. Top 10 album to date. The first single "The Pop Kids" reached #1 on Billboard's U.S. Dance Club Charts. The album was written in London and Berlin and features 12 new Tennant/Lowe compositions.
