Released in 1983, the album combines new wave momentum and synth-pop detail with Matt Johnson’s restless writing, balancing political unease, romantic doubt and wry humour. Best known for landmark tracks such as “This Is the Day” and the expansive “Uncertain Smile”, it helped define The The’s reputation for intelligent, emotionally direct songs that sat just outside the mainstream while still reaching a wide audience. Its blend of hooks, tension and lyrical bite made it one of the era’s most distinctive alternative pop statements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/the-the-vinyl-records\"\u003eThe The\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/epic-records-record-label\"\u003eEpic\u003c\/a\u003e, Some Bizzare – ELPS 4406\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP, Album\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_australia\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReleased: \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\/year_1983\"\u003e1983\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indie-rock\"\u003eIndie Rock\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/new-wave\"\u003eNew Wave\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/synth-pop\"\u003eSynth-Pop\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+I've+Been+Waitin'+For+Tomorrow+(All+Of+My+Life)\"\u003eI'Ve Been Waitin' For Tomorrow (All Of My Life)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+This+Is+The+Day\"\u003eThis Is The Day\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+The+Sinking+Feeling\"\u003eThe Sinking Feeling\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+Uncertain+Smile\"\u003eUncertain Smile\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+Fruit+Of+The+Heart\"\u003eFruit Of The Heart\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+The+Twilight+Hour\"\u003eThe Twilight Hour\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+Soul+Mining\"\u003eSoul Mining\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+Giant\"\u003eGiant\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=The+The+Perfect\"\u003ePerfect\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Epic, Some Bizzare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44499974127681,"sku":"9832107","price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/OS5qcGVn_Ho7I1Ly.jpg?v=1788162293","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/the-the-soul-mining-382091","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
