New Order Covers

came across this blog with downloads if anybody is interested

I like "hurt" & "confusion", so far.

AOC - shite BLT1 - cack BLT2 - as above BM - cack Ceremony - cack confusion - pretty good, must use a sample, sounds like depech mode Hurt - not bad LV - nice, as sinead o'conner would do it regret - cack, original cannot be improved upon sub culture - utter cack Temptation - not bad TF1 - usual fluke stuff, not bad TF2 - Excellent in a strange way.

Worth a look at, thanks for the link.

In all honesty I don't like any of them (except Arcade Fire's cover which I think is available somewhere on this site anyway) but I figured some people might, I'm never really a fan of new order covers. Actually the cover of Ceremony I think is pretty decent, bit strange but I do like it

The cover of 'Walked in Line' which Aislers Set did in one of their peel sessions is fantastic, listen to it more than I do the Joy Division version, has anyone else heard it?

oh i love this blog but somehow i missed it!!

must remember to d/l when I'm home!

Will listen to some of them later.

There's a video of The Arcade Fire - "Bizarre Love Triangle" [three of them playing it acoustically, well one of them playing a guitar case like a drum] - here. Thought I'd add that.

I also listened to the string tribute album [well 30 second clips] when I was in America, and I disliked it.
