PVA announce new album No More Like This with single ‘Boyface’

London trio PVA have announced their new album No More Like This, set for release on 23rd January. It marks their first full-length since 2022’s BLUSH.

The band will preview the record with a two-date residency at London’s Ormside Projects on 18th and 26th September. Alongside the announcement, they’ve released new single ‘Boyface’, a pulsing electro-pop track that thrives on intimacy and physicality.

“‘Boyface’ is a song about desire and somatic sensuality – the beauty and fragility of fleeting connections on the dance floor,” the band explain. “For the video, we collaborated with DOP Sal Redpath and a wonderful group of queer folk to explore touch, interaction, sensory play, and textures.

“The shoot became a space of care and exploration, where people could express and embody these themes freely. It was a truly beautiful day that reflected what queer and safe spaces can be – environments of healing, connection, and possibility.”
