Electronic Appreciation Thread
Alright, this thread is paying tribute to the band consisting of New Order frontman Bernard Sumner & Smiths' guitarist Johnny Marr.
Active during the 1990s, they released three albums;
'Electronic' (1991), 'Raise The Pressure' (1996), 'Twisted Tenderness' (1999).
Their first album was the most successful but for me the latter is their best.
The album cover features a picture of Rasputin on the front & was the first I bought.
I since backtracked and got the other two but to me they fail to live up to the energy and kick ass tunes on 'Twisted Tenderness' for me.
Since then Johnny Marr has done his band 'The Healers' whom I didnt particularly like & also guested on Modest Mouse's latest album (which I thoroughly enjoyed).
As for Bernard Sumner, he has released more New Order albums which were quite surprisingly good ; 'Get Ready' (2001) &
'Waiting For The Siren's Call' (2005) I really enjoyed.
P.S. I know i'm probably one of the only people to even bother about this group, but if there are any like-minded people out there then I'd like to hear from you!
