Matt Johnson of The The doesn’t give many interviews any more but he made an exception for John Doran from the Quietus recently and the resulting piece is chock full of revealing anecdotes and information.
Only two weeks away from my own interrogation of Matt at Rough Trade for the release of the deluxe ‘Soul Mining’ reissue and I’m cursing John as he’s used a good few of my questions already
Nevertheless, this is a fascinating piece that reveals many aspects of Matt’s past career and present state of mind.
