They do sound like NewOrder titles,but lets wait and see for another month until Q comes out,as all will be revealed in 'cash for questions with new order'.
Waiting For A Silent Call?!
Means absolutely fuck all of course, but doesn't sound too bad, I s'pose.

In my experience Q only announces arrivals two months after the event. It's really gone down the chute recently to say the least. I'd wouldn't be surprised to see the old favourite questins 'why don't you do interviews?' and 'where's yer old singer, Ian Curtis?' Judging by some of the proposed questions on this forum I won't be far wrong.
Glad to see Phil's a full-time member now
He brought some new energy to the live shows and looked just like a fan on stage. Obviously it's a shame Gillian won't be on the tour. Can't wait for the album or gigs, but that album name just doesnae sound right.
They'd better omit some of the words of the album title. "Silent Call" would be much better...
Also one point. Usually information about titles and lineups appears a month or two prior to the release, besides sometimes there's an opportunity to pre-order an album on Amazon.com. So far no signs....![]()

An odd title, I can almost picture the chorus in my head, set to a Rock the Shack-ish guitar riff, then Hooky comes in...or maybe someone is taking a piss with us.. ![]()
Reminds me a bit of former President Calvin Coolidge, who's nickname was "Silent Cal", due to his quiet nature.. and now an exerpt from "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart Presents America The Book"..
Coolidge still ranks as the quietest president of all time. Famously, a woman once approached him, saying "I bet my friend I could get you to say more than two words", to which Coolidge wittily replied "Fuck you."
I went in WHS to browse this mag...couldn't find the article so had a quick look through some other quality mags.No mention of it in FARMING WEEKLY.Haven't HERD of it here!
It's not a bad title, if it's true. Quite long though. A bit unusual for NO to have the album and a track on it, with the same title though.
Was I the only person who actually bought in to the 'Atlantic' rumour??
Gullible, me?![]()
Jetstream does sound like a working title, i wouldn´t be surprised if it is. and the album title... it doesn´t sound neworderish although i can´t say i deslike it.
I remember sometime around May 2000 there was a complete list of song titles for a New Order album (that eventually came out a year and a half later - Get Ready).None of them were correct.Titles were something like 'The Deepest Sea ','Velvet' and other tosh.
the info's on p26 of the feb issue of mojo (Sid Vicious cover) if people want to check it out for themselves...would i lie to you?
I couldn't give a toss what the album is called as long as it isn't a load of guitar-based shite... which is what I'm expecting, and would appear to be the case unfortunately ![]()
Funny thing that the MOJO website doesn't even have this one... it's still with the December 2004 / Kurt Cobain one. ![]()
I'm not sure this is going to be a title.. come on, a New Order title so long? that never happened, is it? except Power, Corruption and Lies.
The title "Waiting For A Silent Call" returns ZERO link when you search on Google though... (it will soon, as I posted this on the front page)
Plus, at this stage, if they had picked the album name, a domain name would have been registered.. so far, nothing comes out.. (they had newordergetready.com and neworderretro.com)
Can be a working title of a song, but I don't see this as an album title... remember that "Turn My Way" was "Shipwreck of a Broken Man" at the same stage in the Get Ready process.

I'd go for the first part : Waiting (for) (a)
So it'd be 'waiting for a neworder' record - which we have been for years.![]()
Also with the last one being Get ready, a followup called waiting is funny![]()

I felt the same way when I read the news!
I find it hard to comprehend people finding fault with song titles that we havnt even heard the songs yet.If we d got wind that a new song was to be called "Touched by the hand of god"..."Bizarre Love Triangle" .."The perfect kiss"!?.or "60MPH".(my gran goes faster in her wheelchair),people would have been having a field day on here slagging off these titles.But once youve heard the songs and get used to the titles and begin to put the title to a song they (after time) begin to sound quite cool....so lets hold our breath ..or maybe not ..we might be holding it a long time with New Order...
whatever is the title, who cares??, new order is one of the best bands ever in whole world. they make really good stuff, other bands with better names never gonna have the important records of new order new order rules, whatever was the names

Yeah, there's plenty of cool song and album names out there but the music behind might is garbage. The neat title is meaningless. This is New Order we are talking about on this board/thread, they don't have much in the way of horrible music that I've heard but they do have some oddball or even kinda dumb titles like you said.
Ahhh...I think I would prefer titles like
I Got A Wank Off A Girl With A Spottted Back...
now c'mon...that's very original!
I clearly remember Hooky saying that a song on Get Ready was called Big Hairy Bullocks...
So like Barney said... don't believe what you read on the paper.. could be adapted to... ON THE INTERNET as well.
What are the odds that Mojo have got hold of the wrong end of the stick and this is the date and title of the first single (& b-side), not the album?

Too logical!
Our boys may be pulling our collective legs again.
Get Ready gets played occasionally around the place but PCL and Movement gets more play and I have been playin' their stuff since 1979.![]()

Next month's Q Magazine (due out in the last week of January) will apparently have a review of the new New Order album, or so the current issue of Q states.
So, I guess promos will be available shortly (given that a magazine tends to have all articles published a good few weeks before publication date)? ![]()
l8rs,

that's what I was thinking.
Why ?!
a good half of Technique was guitary. ![]()
Could have sworn Republic was originally titled, "Everyone Everywhere," and, "Raise The Pressure," was originally titled "Until the End of time," could be completely wrong though, as those memories are from vague one time readings of New Order articles from a decade ago.
Perhaps they originally title albums after a song until they come up with the real title? Then again they need to get the title soon for the pressings and everything else? Who Knows. Like the other fan, I liked, "Atlantic," sounded a bit regal, like "Republic," did. Oddly, one of my other Favorite bands, "The Ocean Blue,", just released a song on an ep called, "The Northern Jetstream," this year.

From what I can remember, the 'Atlantic' thing was just a rumour. It was quite imaginative though, i have to admit.
Would've been a good title :)
I know the album title shouldn't really matter as such, as long as the music hits the spot, but it is part of the whole package for me. I don't want it to have a naff title, artwork etc.
I called Bernard Sumner today but there was only a recording device in charge, so I left a message with a question. And now I've been waiting for a silent call from him ![]()

Well it looks like I'm going to have to prepare for disappointment then!
If it's anything like the guitar-heavy stuff on parts of Get Ready, I won't be buying it!
I just realized... nowhere does it say it's the album... everything points to Jim's theory of the upcoming SINGLE...

Do you consider yourself a New Order fan? ![]()
Call the album elephant testicles for all I care. Please just let the album be good, and please let Bernard not be lazy and come tour in the States.
4 crisaches if the albums good it could be called "Comespots and the Irreverend jackhanders" for all I care!![]()
:moon:
A bit long, perhaps...maybe we have become too accustomed to the brevity of past album titles.
Seems like another example of NO doing the opposite of what people would expect.
I've not the magazine in front of me, but I think Time Out listed the forthcoming album title as "Waiting For A Siren's Call", I could be completely wrong, I'll check later.
Originally posted by stuart newman I think Time Out listed the forthcoming album title as "Waiting For A Siren's Call"
At least that title would make more sense than silent call. Still a bit wordy, mind.
We at Rip & Burn magazine are interviewing Bernard and Hooky next week, and we want your questions – however geeky, vague, cosmic, historical, personal or insane. On your behalf, we'll ask the best. So please email me anything you want to know from the boys, and we'll put it to them. Email the question(s) you want asked to: mat.snow@haynet.com, including your name, address and phone number, putting 'Bernard and Hooky' as the subject line. Thanks.

Your web site states tht R&B is for 17-30 years old.
Doesn't that discount half of the people on this site
especially seeing I'm 40 today (I share with Barney).
As the mag is for downloading mp3's, does this mean they'll be info for a New Order mp3?

So the issue is now online, but of course, don't count on the website to help us out.
I didn't publish the Sugarcane story because I was 100% sure it was fake, but now I must admit that the only thing that bugs me here is that I'm still the only NO related site with this story...
Oh well.
In the review section, it is announced that the next issue will have a write-up about the new album, too. This must surely mean that promo-copies will be mailed out pretty soon (if they haven't been already).

Coming from a guy who'd wish their 1993 album would have been named Republican, that's impressive. ;)
