Haze


I'd forgotten about this one and found it while wasting time on Youtube recently. 1999's Electronic album Twisted Tenderness didn't exactly set the world alight and Sumner and Marr moved onto different and separate things afterwards. Track 2 is a little gem though, a highlight in either man's back catalogue outside their main bands. Johnny Marr had got back into playing distorted guitar and the whole thing has menace and convincing swagger.

This live version done for Jo Whiley's Channel 4 music show is even heavier.
