Any other New Order fans out there?

New Order is pretty cool. I've only seen them 3 times (1988 in NY, 1992 in NJ, and 2005 in Coachella, CA), but I felt lucky as they rarely have performed in the states. Besides the popular tunes like Blue Monday, Shellshock, True Faith, Regret, and of course Bizarre Love Triangle. Besides those, the tracks I really liked the most include Crystal, I Told You So, Ceremony, Round and Round, and 1963.

I would love to see them live one more time since admittedly I was a bit "knackered" when I saw them @ The Coachella Festival, but @ least I was aware enough to enjoy when they did perform Regret and 1963.

New Order are awesome, one of my first favourite ever bands. Of all people my GCSE history teacher recommended I download Blue Monday when I was 14, and I've since bought all but one of their albums. It's all about Technique, Republic and Get Ready for me. Never seen them live though

I've always loved it myself. It's one of the first genuinely good albums I ever bought

Bumped for I've-started-listening-to-them-a-lot-again-related reasons.

What's everyone here think of Waiting For the Siren's Call? I absolutely love the singles Krafty and Jetstream (even if the lyrics are hella cheesy), but otherwise I remember being really disappointed by it. Probably because it never blew me away like Get Ready when I first listened to it (I was only 13 or 14 at the time I got it anyway). The former's the only New Order album I'd call sub-par myself.

EDIT - My top 5 albums for anyone not in the loop;

Technique
Republic
Get Ready
Lowlife
Brotherhood

^ In that order.

This song has always been my favourite New Order track. It literally fucking blows me away. HAS to be played loud.

Never heard of them, but i just checked them out... they're.... unique

I don't really like their older stuff actually. The only album I really like from them is Get Ready. I think that's a really excellent album. The song "Love Less" is great though. That's about the only song I like from them that isn't on Get Ready. I have to start listening to their older stuff again though just to see if my opinion will change lol.

I don't know much about the band.
