Space, the British dark pop band from Liverpool, play Space at Social with support from Poor Things.
Space play Social on Saturday 7 November, with support from Poor Things. They're touring their new album, Ten Neurotic Fairytales, so the set will be built around the new material.
If you've lost track of them, Space were one of the biggest British bands of the nineties. They sold more than five million albums worldwide, and Spiders and Tin Planet both went double platinum in the UK, each shifting over 800,000 copies. Their hit 'Female of the Species' topped the album charts, and the single's 2009 re-release picked up a BPI silver award. They describe themselves as Liverpool's finest exponents of dark twisted pop, and they've appeared on Radio 1, Virgin Radio, and the old staples Top of the Pops, TFI and The Big Breakfast.
Their last studio album, Music For Pleasure Music For Pain, came out in 2021 on Hug Records. It was recorded at the band's own Liverpool studio and mastered at Abbey Road, with Phil Hartley engineering and producing. The current tour and the artwork for the new album draw on images from original artworks and models made by St Helens actor, comedian and antique dealer Jonny Vegas, who the band has since collaborated with.
