I voted for "Twisted Tenderness". The first Electronic album could be a good choice, but it sounds dated these days. "Music For Pleasure" is great as well.
On the other hand, "Gun World Porn" gets my vote for the worst side-project album (even being an EP).

ditto for me.

100% with you.
The first Electronic album for me, followed VERY CLOSE by Music For Pleasure.
Monaco is my favorite side-project.. but Electronic is the photo finish :D
My opinion:
- Electronic-self titled
- Monaco-self titled
- Electronic-Raise the Pressure
- Monaco-Music For Pleasure
- Other Two-Super Highways
- Electronic-Twisted Tenderness
- The Other Two-The Other Two & You
- Revenge-One True Passion
I voted for "Raise the Pressure". This album really grew on me. It's very polished and I can listen to it from start to finish. The first Electronic album is a masterpiece too so it was very difficult to choose. Monaco's first album comes in 3rd.
Voted for Electronic's eponimous 1991 offering. I like TT, don't get me wrong, but Johnny tried TOO hard on the geetar, too OTT for my liking. So RTP comes a close second...

Or is it "Raise the pleasure" and "Music for pressure"? These fridays at the office can be so confusing

Electronic's first, only just pipping Twisted Tenderness.
Electronic's first is a great record. Have only got this on vinyl and tried to play it on my record player the other day and it kept jumping. Would appreciate a lend of it on CD Shug if you have it.
Electronic's first album by miles. And what an album it is! For me it sure ranks besides the best New Order ever put out. Can't recall any sound I don't like on "Electronic". And that's after all these airplay I've given this one!! So hats off to Johnny, Bernard and those Pet Shop buddies.
As a newbee here, I'm gonna throw in my choice: Music for Pleasure. Electronic (debut) and Raise the pressure were both slightly edged out.
The songs are fantastic, IMO. _
