Jarvis Cocker appears to be pinging back and forth about the idea of a Pulp reunion. First, the rumor surfaced. Then, came a swift denial. Now, he’s been talking about the possibility again. No wonder his latest album is called Further Complications.

"I got asked about Glastonbury and someone said, 'Would I like to play there again?' I said 'Yes' but I think people interpreted that as, 'I would like Pulp to play Glastonbury again. I suppose it made me think a little bit. The fact that people did seem interested, that made me think about it a little bit more."

Cocker also worked on the new Wes Anderson movie, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and has been taking about his involvement to the Quietus. “All the human characters are baddies,” he said. “But I like to think that I'm a almost not as bad, because I sing that song about the animals, but if I'm honest I have to admit that I'm a baddie.”
