Hmm, methinks this New Order cover by Arcade Fire might be a tad worse, even.

I'm just saying the two songs overlap fine in some parts, but tonally it turns into a big dischordant mess.
Can't access this at work, assume it's one of these 'mash-up' things...
Are they just aimed at people who don't have time to listen to both tracks separately?

I wish I was able to do some mash up... there is a serious one to do with Arcade Fire's Ocean of Noise vs Duran Duran's Say A Prayer....

Talking of JD who's this in the photo from Paris 79? The one nearest to Hooky? First time i've seen this pic

It looks like Mark 'Lard' Riley, did they share the bill with The Fall?
Is this an official band photo or some off-duty shenanigans?
Who knows? I don't.
