Search and Destroy : New Order

it's not on the Rhino US site so I went ahead and secured one of 500 ltd boxes. better safe than sorry.

Standard edition £49, deluxe £75.

Main difference (only diff?) deluxe includes a piece of artwork?

and two compact discs

oh right..

Got one. That's gonna be sold out in a second!

oops.

as long as people are talking . . . what the hell does WWWRL stand for?

In relation to what?

oh, here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWRL

thanks. been wondering what that meant for a long long time

that question was my first post to NOOL way back in 2000 or 2001

Okay I love how seriously people are taking this:

+/-, or Plus/Minus, is an American indietronic band formed in 2001.

feat. members of Versus...but +/- was already a part of the Factory/Joy DIvision iconography from the Atmosphere reissues around the time of Substance I think? I take it as a joke.

j0rdan has never heard new order outside of 'blue monday'

We all start somewhere.

Singer George Michael has recorded a version of New Order's hit True Faith to raise money for Comic Relief.

he'll release it unless we give money to Comic Relief?

George Michael > New Order

there I said it

I dreamt last night that a young Bernard started flirting with me when I admitted how much I loved his "True Faith" vocal.

xp it was a "Careless Whisper"

I would've MAYBE liked that a TINY bit or found it at least a bit interesting if it didn't have all the autotune.

i'm no fan of new order, but this is pretty dreadful.

Christ, that's awful.

The limited edition Record Store Day 12" - 30th anniversary edition of Ceremony - has been posted to Recycle.

I've also posted hi-res scans of the LPs/EPs released '81 - '89 for those who want to tag the artwork in their digital libraries.

thanks for this!

Regarding the remastered CDs: How do I distinguish between the earlier remasters that had problems to the new reissues that came a year later with the supposed fixed issues? Did the first batch of cds get recalled or are they still out on the shelves?

shit, i've posted that information on ILM before but i can't remember now. the first batch is def. still on the shelves. i ended up buying the whole set from IdealCopy.com to ensure i got the right ones.

it was brought up here: New Order remasters from Japan?

the mis-pressings have the Deluxe Edition (or whatever it says) plastic slipcase and the extremely large white sticker on the front with the title and details, the newer ones have smaller stickers with the info and no slipcase.

I got the first four remasters used on amazon and uh.. they all sound good to me. No idea if they're from the recalled batch but I haven't heard any egregious audio artifacts; the discs are all loud maxxed out and stuff like all CDs now.

Aha none of mine have slipcases so there u go

Thanks Bee OK. That's exactly the info I was looking for

Perhaps the last interview. Here's hoping.

Hooky a) a massive cunt and b) otm in that interview

For one thing, there's a vast new outhouse that is presumably, though we never get to see inside, full of Morris's famous collection of military vehicles. Inside there are heavy granite worktops, new bathrooms, a live room featuring full-size Daleks and Cybermen and a studio brimming over with highly desirable kit.

That's some outhouse!</american>

Hooky a) a massive cunt and b) otm in that interview

yep

pretty much

How exactly is Hooky otm in that interview? about them being childish middle-aged men? yeah can't argue with that, but w/v, bands break up, life moves on.

Isn't that what Hooky says?

just a bit puzzled by the bit about how fans are allegedly heartbroken because their bickering is tarnishing their legacy

well basically they're never going to play together again, so for ppl like me who never saw them, that kind of sucks

sometimes it's better that way though

watching new order now would be like when they brought krusty ringer to kamp krusty

it's not a sobbing-at-night regret (not least because I've heard live tracks and seen concert footage and I think Bernard's tin ear would drive me insane)

wait, you listen to new order for the singing?

I saw them a few times between 87-93 (?). Pretty much one of the sloppiest bands I've ever seen but hey.

Well, I thought they wz great.

Last time before they split the first time..
