Too right. We all love music & other bands,but i dont wait with baited breath for anyone elses albums.

The sooner the lazy bastards get the album out, the sooner they will tour, and the sooner we can all meet up for plenty of beer at the gigs.

Today's theme : Sooner Than You Think? :D

Originally posted by Spotnick Of course we are...Otherwise we'd be like Elvis fans, trying to find a way to get new recordings by ressurecting the songs he did when he was 5 years old :DNew material can only be good news, altough it's the first one they do as a trio, which might be a little sad.

Call of history: the first recordings of "Ceremony" and "In a lonely place" were made by Barney, Hooky and Steve, and almost a year later would they re-record them with Gillian - and they did play a couple of gigs as well as a trio back in '80-'81. (From Claude Flowers' biography.)

Keith, man, obviously you like to call attention by pissing everyone else off, but do tell us: do you even like Joy Division/New Order in the first place? :skeptic: I mean, what's wrong with you? :nuts:

Maybe I should push back the date from the discography :nonono:

I said june? I must have been thinking about "You are the quarry"... :laugh:

Why would anybody not interested in a new NO album visit this forum?

suggesting they can't write anything as good as Bizarre Love Triangle, Ceremony etc. again neglects the amazing music on Get Ready. Primitive Notion is pure New Order. As good as they get. The intro to Someone Like You is amazing and if it weren't for the chorus that would be a genuine classic too. Crystal rivals Regret and has a better bassline. I completely believe they are able to write another masterpiece (or two). Vietnam has completely grown on me making the last two songs they released (Here To Stay + Vietnam) excellent tracks. i expect an album that has about 60percent quality music and 40percent filler. I'd be happy with that breakdown. anything over that would be bonus.

I agree and also love the SOUNDTRACK for SAVILLE.They are well capable of writing GENIUS songs again.Keep the faith.I am almost 46 now and i still get a buzz when NEW ORDER are mentioned.Never give up on a good thing(Sorry MR BENSON!).

I was at the Woolwich Coronet gig April 87 :D Fantastic :love2:

Like a lot of people have said, I am looking forward to new material but most of all to see them live again. Especially as my young lady from Zagreb (Not Julijana) is finally coming over and she is looking forward to seeing them in England, especially as she saw them in Berlin a couple of years ago.

Me and Mick are looking forward to a new album so we can meet up for some KFC and rucksack shopping!!!:p

Any idea how is she going to obtain the visa ? I must admit it puts me off visiting England for gigs.

Of course I'm looking for the next album...what would be the point of following New Order otherwise ? It'll probably not be as good as their best moments, but it might be very good nevertheless, better than most other things out there.

Apparently you no longer need a Visa, this changed a few months ago, I got a rather happy text message from her at that time.
