WATCH: Pulp release 'Tina' music video from album More

Extra.ie​21-07-2025
Pulp have released the new music video for their latest single Tina, from their UK No.1 comeback album More.
The release follows their summer UK and Ireland tour dates, which included their headline gig at Dublin's 3Arena as well as their set at Glastonbury Festival.
The music video was created in collaboration with Austrian artist Julia Schimautz (DTAN Studio) and features lyrical animation by Gaussian Studio.
The clip blends digitally crafted imagery with the textured imperfections of traditional printmaking to capture the emotional core of 'Tina, according to frontman Jarvis Cocker, who describes it being 'about obsession and fantasy.'
'I love this video it's like digital Fuzzy-Felt. You should feel like you need a shower after listening to it,' he said.
In a recent interview with Hot Press, Cocker unveiled the myriad creative influences behind the latest album, the bands first in almost a quarter-of-a-century.
Next, the British alt-rock band are set to return to their hometown of Sheffield to headline Tramlines Festival on July 25, before heading to North America this autumn.
'Tramlines is going to be great,' said bandmember Saskia Cocker.
'It's a terrific line-up and it will be our first chance to play the new songs to the population of the Peoples Republic of South Yorkshire. Right good.'

'It's the kind of song you carry with you': Cork singer on the Collins brothers of WWI

A new song which tells the tragic story of the six Collins brothers from Waterford who joined the British army to fight in World War I has been released by Cork singer-songwriter Roy Buckley. For Another King and Country, written by Phil Coulter alongside Ryan Hennessy and Jimmy Rainsford of Picture This, has been described as an Irish version of Saving Private Ryan — but without the Hollywood ending. The song, which was pitched to Buckley by Coulter as he knew it would suit the singer's voice and background, was released on Wednesday and is available on all major streaming platforms and has already reached Number 6 in the charts. Speaking to the Irish Examiner about the history behind the song, Buckley said: 'Four of the brothers were killed in action. The fifth was listed as missing, presumed dead. The sixth brother, William Collins, was sent home on compassion to console their grieving mother — who had received five telegrams informing her that her sons had fallen. During that time, her husband left her. It's a story of immense heartache. 'Incredibly, the fifth brother was later found in a convent hospital in France after the war and eventually returned home to Waterford. But he lived the rest of his life in pain, with shrapnel still in his body. At the time, jobs were scarce, and like thousands of young Irish men, the Collins brothers were encouraged to enlist by politician John Redmond, who told them that fighting for Britain would help secure Home Rule for Ireland. They had no idea of the horror they were walking into. Phil Coulter and Roy Buckley. 'They were waved off to war as heroes. But after the 1916 Rising changed the political and emotional landscape of Ireland, the surviving brothers returned to a very different country — one where service in the British army was now viewed with suspicion or even hostility. Many returned Irish soldiers never spoke about the war because of that stigma. In fact, the Collins family's descendants in Waterford only discovered the full story around 10 or 12 years ago.' In November 2016, the six brothers were commemorated by the Waterford Civic Trust with a plaque near their family home on Balteen Lane. Buckley said that the story of the Collins' brothers 'hit deep' and said that he has always been drawn to songs that carry history in their bones — songs that aren't just entertainment, but remembrance. 'The tragedy and sadness of it all… young men and boys heading off to war thinking they'd be home by Christmas. I think of poor Agnes Collins receiving five telegrams about her sons. I think of the confusion and heartbreak those men must have felt — being treated as heroes on the way out, and as traitors when they returned,' he said. 'I also have a personal connection: my great-grandfather, Edward Hutchinson, fought and died in World War I. He's remembered at the Menin Gate in Belgium alongside the other Irishmen who fell far from home. When I sing this song, I'm not just performing — I'm telling a real story and honouring real people. That's rare. It's the kind of song you carry with you.' Buckley said that when Coulter played the song for him in his office in Wicklow, he knew it was something special. 'He has an amazing instinct for crafting songs that feel timeless, and he knew this one would really suit my voice and background,' he said. 'Working with Phil is a huge honour — he's not only a musical legend, but he's also incredibly generous with his knowledge. He shares it freely whenever we collaborate. It never feels like I'm just a singer on one of his tracks — there's a real sense of mutual respect. He's one of a kind.' Speaking about being invited by Coulter as a special guest for a leg of his Tranquility by Candlelight tour later this year, Buckley said: 'It's honestly a dream. I grew up listening to Phil's music and learning the great ballads he's written, and to now be sharing the stage with him night after night is incredibly humbling. "He's always championed Irish music and Irish stories. Being part of his tour feels like being welcomed into something much bigger than yourself — a legacy, really.' The tour will include dates at the National Concert Hall in Dublin, the National Opera House in Wexford, and a special night in Waterford at St John's Church, where the pair will perform For Another King and Country for the first time in the home county of the Collins brothers. Buckley said that the remainder of the year is shaping up to be a big one for him, with more singles in the pipeline and further headline shows under his concert series The Song Collector Sessions. 'We've had an amazing run recently, with incredible Irish artists like Mundy, George Furey, Kiera Dignam, Mike Hanrahan from Stockton's Wing, George Murphy, Mickey Joe Harte, and Dave Browne from Picture House all joining me as special guests. It's a busy time — but I'm loving every second of it,' he said.

Iron Maiden legend Paul Mario Day dies aged 69

The original Iron Maiden frontman Paul Mario Day has passed away at the age of 69 and tributes are pouring in. A statement confirming the sad news was shared by the band More, the group Paul was with after his time with Iron Maiden. The heavy metal icon played a key role for the genre in the 1970s, being with Iron Maiden for their launch and the beginning of the movement dubbed the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM). Paul Mario Day and bass guitarist Brian Day (left) of heavy metal group More in1981. Pic:More stated: 'We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of the great MORE vocalist Paul Mario Day. 'Paul was a huge part of the NWOBHM from his time in an early version of Iron Maiden and of course his fantastic performance on the Warhead album. He was a well loved figure in British rock music and played many memorable shows not least the legendary 1981 Monsters of Rock show at Castle Donninton with AC/DC Whitesnake/David Coverdale as well as tours with Iron Maiden Def Leppard and many other legendary artists. 'Mike Freeland remembers him fondly as a 'bloody great vocalist!' 'It's an honour for us to continue to play his music and we will always think of him every time we hit the opening notes to 'Warhead'. 'We send our deepest condolences to Paul's family and friends and also the many fans around the world who love his music. 'Play his music loud and sing along! 'Thank you. Rock in peace Paul.' Paul was born in London in 1956 and became the first singer for Iron Maiden at the age of 19 in December 1975. He was with the group for 10 months before they replaced him with Dennis Wilcock, who also had a short-lived stint. Paul formed More in 1980, and the band released its debut album, 'Warhead', the following year. Paul (centre) with his fellow More band members. Pic:The iconic frontman also went on to lead the band Wildfire from 1983 to 1984 and in 1985 he joined a reformed version of the band Sweet alongside guitarist Andy Scott and drummer Mick Tucker. Andy also paid tribute to Paul on Sweet's social media accounts. He shared: 'In 1985 Mick Tucker and myself put together the first new line-up of Sweet after the hiatus of the original band. 'We needed a singer and when Paul arrived for the audition we looked no further. Our first dates were in Australia, total sell-outs which boded well for the future. 'Europe followed suit and 3 sold out nights at the Marquee in London produced a live album, video and DVD. ''Live at the Marquee' did well in various charts around the world and Paul's vocal performance has stood the test of time.' Heavy metal fans have flooded social media with tributes to one of the main faces of NWOBHM. One fan wrote: 'I saw Paul with More at Ayr Pavillion in April 1981 then a Donington a few months later. I also saw him with Sweet in Nov 1985. Great vocalist. Sadly missed.' Another commented: 'Just finished a play along session with the first album to honor Andy, Kenny and Paul. R.I.P. all of them. Some classic tunes these guys made. Now to bed trying to forget.' A third added: 'RIP Paul. I love the two Wildfire albums too, it was Paul's band.'

DAVID ADELEYE owes Tyson Fury a lot after being welcomed into his training camp - including the money for a parking ticket.

He told SunSport: "I probably am still insured, to be honest. I ain't been there in a few years but I probably still am because we still talk.

I was like, 'Tyson's got the f***ing money, mate. You can just pay for it.' "So when I gave him back the car, he just saw the parking ticket. He didn't even bring it up to me - so he must have just paid for it. "So I probably still owe him! But he'll be alright."

But he learnt more from observing what Fury and AJ did outside of the ring than he did when sharing it with them. Inside Anthony Joshua's wild Mykonos getaway, from quad biking to rapping and being swarmed by fans He said: "You see how they prepare, you see how they deal with camps, deal with sparring partners and dealing with different things and how they take their nutrition and whatnot.

I'm not one of those people that just walk into the room not really know what's going on, any room I walk into, I kind of study and wanna know what's going on. "So, yeah, I was just looking from a different sort of perspective." Adeleye - with 13 knockouts in his 14 wins with just one loss - sparred the pair of British superstars in their primes. But the Londoner - friends with both - refuses to split them - back then or now. He said: "They've both got different attributes, honestly.

"So that way I would have been like, 'I know why he did this, or I know why he did that.' "But obviously they haven't fought, so I think when they do fight, it'll probably be next year, then it'll be interesting to see because I feel like they're still very good fighters and yeah they lost but they lost the people at the top of the tree."
