Cinéola is happy to announce the release of THE THE’s brand-new single '$1 ONE VOTE!' in partnership with earMUSIC, on February 24th, 2023. Pre-order now available from our website – link in stories. This strictly limited edition 7” vinyl single includes two songs and features a powerful and previously unseen version of artwork by Matt’s late brother, Andy Dog. “It is a song that has been percolating – in various versions – for a number of years”, says Matt about ‘$1 ONE VOTE!’. “For some reason I was always having trouble finding the right words to finish it off, but the nascent dystopia of the last couple of years has certainly opened eyes, sharpened minds and clarified thoughts.” The B-side features a real gem with which true die-hard fans are certainly already familiar. Although ‘MRS MAC’ was originally released as a download-only single on THE THE’s website back in 2007 it has never – until now – had a physical release. “It was written about my first day at school, in Stratford, East London back in the 1960s”, Matt explains. “Mrs Mac was a sinister dinner lady / enforcer who terrorised the children into eating over-boiled slop that would make them heave in horror.” #thethe #mattjohnson #newmusic #newsingle #preorder #vinyl #vinylsingle #7inchvinyl #7inchsingle
