Tennant/Lowe - Battleship Potemkin

Tennant and Lowe of Pet Shop Boys’ celebrated score, remastered and released on vinyl for the first time by Parlophone Records to mark the centenary of Sergei Eisenstein’s legendary silent film Battleship Potemkin.

A fixture in the critical canon almost since its premiere, Eisenstein’s film about a 1905 naval mutiny was revolutionary in both form and content. Battleship Potemkin is renowned for its dynamic compositional strength and editing of such frame-perfect precision that it’s hard not to be swept along. The set-piece massacre on the Odessa Steps still packs a sledgehammer punch.
