It's good to see so many forgotten tracks reissued, but I don't know if I'll bother with this. I already have the good stuff. Factory's legendary status was really cemented by a small handful of bands, while they also released lots of questionable stuff. Similar to Wax Trax in that respect.

I'm in

Urine? In the words of an ancient NME artcle: Factory survived all this and went bust when they had the Mondays, New Order and Electronic.

Ah, who am I kidding? I'll probably get it. Funny that this should come up now, because I just finally got around to getting the Communications box set.

How come LTM haven't done this,and the site has been static since May 2010,and no recent releases,are they no more?

I think you may be looking at an old web address? They are now at www.ltmrecordings.com

"Fac. Dance" is fairly similar to some of the LTM compilations - "Cool As Ice" and "Twice As Nice" - and shares some tracks with those, although I guess it's time for a new compilation and perhaps it's aimed at a different market?

You're right,cheers
