Slow Emotion Replayed

THE THE / SLOW EMOTION REPLAYED - During the rehearsals preceding the Ensouled World Tour 2024, THE THE whittled down their vast catalogue in search of the strongest set list - one that incorporated both the entire new album, Ensoulment, as well as the anticipated and much-loved songs of past decades. One song was sounding weak and nearly did not make it. but before it was dropped from the list, a final attempt at reinventing it proved to be its resurrection and reincarnation as `Slow Emotion Replayed'. It stayed in the set and went on tour.Matt Johnson has a penchant for covering and reinventing his own songs as with `This Is The Day', `Infected', `Armageddon Days' and others. The original version of `Slow Emotion Replay', appeared on Dusk, released in 1993. This new version, `Slow Emotion Replayed' was recorded in Studio Cine'ola, London, featuring Matt Johnson on Omnichord and vocals, Barrie Cadogan on electric guitar and backing vocals, James Eller on bass and Gillian Glover also providing backing vocals.This extremely limited vinyl-look CD features not only `Slow Emotion Replayed' and its corresponding B-side `Crow Commotion Displayed', but also 4 additional tracks which first appeared as B-sides on THE THE's recent 7" vinyl singles released 2020-24:
