New Order's Substance 1987 Gets Expanded 4CD Reissue
New Order's Substance 1987 compilation is being reissued as an expanded four-disc set arriving 10 November. Beyond the original album's classic tracks—including "Ceremony," "Blue Monday," "True Faith," and "The Perfect Kiss"—the reissue adds a disc of dub versions and alternate takes, plus a previously unreleased 1987 live performance from California recorded to match the album's track list. The set is available in 2CD, 4CD, 2LP, and cassette formats.
Substance 1987 stands as one of New Order's most essential collections, pulling together classic singles from 1981 onwards—"Ceremony," "Blue Monday," "True Faith," "The Perfect Kiss," and others that shaped British electronic music. The expanded reissue, out 10 November, adds two further discs to the original album: disc three collects extended versions, dub treatments, and alternate takes of tracks like "Temptation" and "Confusion," whilst disc four features a previously unreleased live performance from Irvine Meadows, California, recorded in 1987 with the same track listing as the compilation.
The set is available across multiple formats—2CD, 4CD, 2LP, and cassette—alongside individual reissues of three supporting 12" singles: "True Faith," its remix, and a 1988 version of "Blue Monday."
