As Warner Music has entrusted Frank Arkwright with (properly) remastering the NO back catalog, and given the recent 'finally got something right' re-release of "Singles", any bets as to whether or not we'll see a 30th anniversary reissue of "Substance" next year? I'm envisioning a 4-CD box set with all 20 Factory-era 12" single A-sides (along with the 1987 re-recorded versions of "Temptation" and "Confusion" tacked on at the end) on discs 1 and 2, and all the corresponding 12" B-sides on discs 3 and 4. And while they're at it, how about releasing all the 2015 Arkwright remastered albums on CD? They could all be boxed up, as well.

I really think "Substance" deserves a decent reissue. The album was the entry to the music of New Order for bigger audiences worldwide in the eighties. It sold millions of copies. But I don't think it is in their plans sadly.

100% this. Really bummed there is no remaster of Substance.
