This has been the most exciting year for Pulp and Pulp fans in over two decades. They released More, their first album in 24 years, this spring, and toured the world. Now they’ve shared a new song.
Specifically, a new recording of a classic Johnny Cash song, “The Man Comes Around.” It was made for British TV limited series The Hack, which was about the phone hacking scandal involving tabloid News of the World that eventually led to the paper shutting down in 2011. Johnny Cash’s original was on 2002’s American IV: The Man Comes Around, and was one of the last songs the country icon recorded. Pulp set a caveman beat to it and Jarvis’ low whisper works great here. Listen below.
Pulp’s version of “The Man Comes Around” is the A-side to a new 12″ that is exclusive to Rough Trade shops that comes with two b-sides: “Marrying for Love” and “Cold Call on the Hotline.”
Pulp will take their tour into 2026, with Australian and New Zealand dates in late winter, and then festival dates in the summer, including a headlining slot at End of the Road in September. All dates are listed below.
Pick up Pulp’s More on dark green vinyl or blue thinking vinyl in the BV shop.
