  • Limited Edition 7" Vinyl
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    7" vinyl version of "Men Without Hats" as well as our cover of Pop Goes The World by the band Men Without Hats. Comes in a jacket featuring a close-up selfie of Mathias' face meant as an homage to the original cover of "Pop Goes The World."

    Sorry this is so expensive - we're actually selling these singles at cost. We like 7"s—who doesn't?—but they are really unreasonably pricy to make in small numbers. C'est la vie.

about

Mathias says:

“Pop Goes The World” first appeared on the 1987 album of the same name by the great Canadian band Men Without Hats. I was nine years old at the time, and it was the first record that I ever bought.

Our version of the song was recorded in 2011 at Jake Nicoll’s house in the Battery, St. John’s, tilting precariously over the cliffs. I played ukulele, tin whistle, and also bass; Jake recorded and mixed and played keyboards and drums. Ariel Sharratt played the clarinet and John Duff the trombone. We had no Little Baby nor Big Bonhomme, but Clare Asquith added a bit of Yorkshire magic to the introduction. This cover was included on the album accompanying the re-issue of the book “Have Not Been The
Same: The CanRock Renaissance 1985-1995” by Michael Barclay, Ian A.D. Jack and Jason Schneider.
