#NowPlaying: #Electronic - Twisted Tenderness
1999 Taiwanese issue.

Electronic is my favourite #NewOrder side hustle and I have been enjoying this album more and more. It's danceable rock with some hip-hop influences. The album starts off with an incredible track, which captures your attention immediately. I went ahead and treated myself with a very rare Taiwanese version for my birthday this year and the Discogs seller was just the best!

#NowPlaying: #Revenge - One True Passion
1990 UK issue.

Deemed a mistake by #PeterHook of #NewOrder, who was the driving force behind Revenge. I don't think of it as such, there's some really good, danceable tracks on here, albeit a bit shallow at times. The sound is dark but the lyrics are sensitive at times. I love the consistent art style they had laid out for their releases, their troop of models called "Revenge girls". Check it out if you like New Order.

Happy anniversary to New Order’s single, “Be A Rebel”. Released this week in 2020. #neworder #bearebel

I'm listening to "everything is alive" from #Slowdive!!!

Did #JohnCarpenter, #TheCure and #NewOrder have a bastard child?

Didn't expect that I like it that much.

#NowPlaying: #ChinaCrisis - What Price Paradise
1986 Canadian pressing.

The last album I needed to complete my China Crisis collection, except their 2015 effort. This makes me think: what band can I summarise 2023 with for me? 2022 was #OMD, 2021 #NewOrder, and 2020 #U2. Will it be China Crisis or #ACertainRatio? Not the right post to ponder this in, but perhaps these hashtags will help you find something new in this thread to listen to!

#NowPlaying: #NewOrder - 1981-1982
1982 US pressing on "translucent" #vinyl.

It's only translucent if you hold it against the light. This apparently is the first pressing, so it's quite cool that I found it today. While I love Movement, I think the singles from this time period really show the development from #PostPunk to #SynthPop: whereas Movement is more post-punk, this record is clearly synth-pop. Incredible find!

Are the old concepts of ‘us versus them’ becoming more and more difficult to define or even irrelevant? We must recognize the changing dynamics of the world.

#NowPlaying: #NewOrder - Movement
2019 reissue from the box set.

So it's time that I played again, I tooted about this album and how seminal it is earlier today. I got the box set and I think I never really touched it since I explored it when I received it. A shame really. The cover is brilliant as well: the lines aren't just there for fun, they also represent the catalogue number! Another brilliant Peter Saville design.

Probably the best music review I have ever read. I used to listen to Movement on a regular basis but I seem to have forgotten about it for a long time. This review reminded me of how good and seminal the record is.

🎧 #Mood | #NewOrder "All the Way" (1989)

It takes years to find the nerve
To be apart from what you've done
To find the truth inside yourself
And not depend on anyone

#NowPlaying: #Electronic
2020 European reissue.

This was my favourite album for a while back in late 2021/early 2022 and for a good reason: it's a brilliant crossover event between #NewOrder, #TheSmiths, and #PetShopBoys. With so much musical experience, the jangly guitar sound of Marr and the danceable synths of Sumner it's no wonder that they wrote one of the most brilliant #90s albums. I was looking for it on #vinyl for a long time and finally found a copy!

#NowPlaying: #ACertainRatio - acr:mcr
2018 European reissue on 2×45" clear #vinyl.

2 discs because better sound quality? It definitely did sound good though, this is what I expected to hear from late #80s a✓:, namely #acidhouse with thumping bass and driving rhythms. It's got the a✓:-ness though, there's some squeaky brass sections here and there and the funk's all over. Guest vocals of Sumner of #neworder and Denise Johnson (later on #electronic).

Heute vor 20 Jahren begann das Live-Rollenspiel "New Order 2003", oder wie wir Freigenossen sagen: "D Eroberig vo Müttedorf".

New Order - True Faith
#newwave #neworder #truefaith

I wonder how many people have noticed that this is a song about heroin addiction. I have never heard anybody anywhere else describe heroin as "the morning sun", but it seems to be a fitting metaphor. Since I have never taken heroin in my life, I can't be sure though.
