Pulp have shared a cover of Johnny Cash’s classic song ‘The Man Comes Around’. It was recorded for the British TV limited series The Hack, which is about the 2011 phone hacking scandal that led to The News of the World closing. Sharing the cover on Instagram, the band’s label, Rough Trade, wrote, “‘The Man Comes Around’ is a cover of a song by another JC: Johnny Cash, no less.” Take a listen below.
Pulp released their first new album in 24 years, More, earlier this year. Their rendition of ‘The Man Comes Around’ is the A-side to a new 12″ exclusive to Rough Trade shops, accompanied by two B-sides: ‘Marrying for Love’ and ‘Cold Call on the Hotline’.
