Pulp share plans for ‘Live!’ album and ‘What Do You Do For an Encore?’ concert film

Pulp have announced that they’ll be capping off their recent victory lap by releasing a live album - aptly titled ‘Live!’ - and a concert film, ‘Pulp: What Do You Do For an Encore?’, to commemorate their two June 2025 performances at London’s O2 Arena. 

Directed by Garth Jennings - who the band first worked with back in 1997 on the ‘Help The Aged’ video - the concert film will be released worldwide this Autumn, comprised of live footage of those triumphant shows (which were part of the UK tour supporting Pulp’s huge comeback album ‘More’).

Spanning cuts from ‘More’ - the band’s first LP in 24 years - as well as much-loved fan favourites and older classics, the setlist from those O2 shows has now been committed to wax for ‘Live!’, which hits shelves on 28th August. (Check out the full tracklist down below).

“A concert is an event where songs come back to life,” frontman Jarvis Cocker has said of the news. “That’s why this album is called ‘Live!’. It’s both a statement of fact (it’s a recording of a live band) & a challenge (come on! Everyone come alive!).”
