"Don't Believe in Me"
"Don't Believe in Me", the 7" vinyl B-side was initially recorded at the same time as "Housewife", when Johnny Marr still played with the band in 2010, the song went unused for more than a year. Several parties helped resurrect the song: Ryan produced the original track in 2010 with engineering by Sebastian Lewsley at West Heath Studios in London. Furthermore, Gary undertook additional recording at Tartan Hell, Portland in 2012. Finally, Woodie Taylor, drummer for Comet Gain and previously Morrissey, mixed the song in Milou Studios. The song reached completion though Chris Potter at Electric Mastering.
