Featuring exhilarating recent singles “Fear For The Whole Damn World” and “Get On The Roof”, ‘Primetime Entertainment’ was produced by friend and fan Frank Turner.

Proudly dubbed by the band as “our ‘London Calling’”, the new album has already been attracting warm reviews with NARC Magazine praising it as a record of “joyous experimentation” (⅘).

Written and recorded in just 11 months after signing with Xtra Mile Recordings for their acclaimed debut, ‘Fractured Party Music’, the band’s latest album is a discernibly more personal effort than its party-primed predecessor. Dealing with feelings of fear, fatigue, adrenaline, failing and determination, ‘Primetime Entertainment’ proved to be a record of profound psychological and musical discovery for PET NEEDS that has produced a transfixing listening experience.

Following the release of ‘Primetime Entertainment’, PET NEEDS will be hitting the road for a stretch of support dates across the UK with Frank Turner (following their mammoth ‘50 States in 50 Dates’ tour together in the USA), before a previously announced special homecoming headline show in Colchester Arts Centre on 16th December. With the Colchester show now completely SOLD OUT, the band are delighted to announce a full UK headline tour in the run up to Christmas – with tickets ON SALE NOW. Find your local venue as follows:
