Originally posted by Huntsman It's always surprising that a band considers 'the latest release' as their 'best'. 60MPH in a best of? ... surely not. Better than TMW?:hat:

It's 60MPH as in "released as a single", not as "better than TMW" and... more Best of's than original albums... Here's the countdown:

Well, it's seven against four, still three to go!

Yes, as I said on the French forum, I fear they misslabelled it (like they've been used to since Cries & Whispers was wrongly labelled as Mesh on the 1981-1982 E.P. and Run as Run 2 on the Best Of). I guess it will eventually turn out to be Temptation 87, recently available on Transpotting and 24hpp OST's.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Maybe they will be off to better pastures shortly.

Ceremony Records, anyone?

And it's not like they haven't already made that exact mistake on the TBTHOG CD single or anything....

yes Jorge but you forgot that Best of was issued with 2 different tracklistings and International will be available in at least as many different forms....so the totals are nearly identical. let's hope this is indeed a contractual obligation and the next round of NewOrder releases will be on an independant label.....it's good to dream.

Does the boxset count? that's 4 CDs, so it will be MORE CDs than original CDs :D

I'm very curious though to see what will be on that boxset.. there MUST be something unreleased or original (I'm still sure the fact that New Order are in studio right now is not stanger to the release of the boxset), otherwise, it competes directly with "International"...

That sleeve is erm.. not great. Republic is my fave artwork.

International should have been a dark blue sleeve... and nothing else. With a dark blue CD, inner sleeve etc, etc. The tracklisting nowhere to be seen apart from on CD text. And a hefty booklet in the case with nothing in it.
