I agree with you, Geoff - and I realize we do share the same musical tastes, BTW.

I think Another band from Sarah Records was inspired by NO: it was called 'The Wake' - and actually, it was formerly signed on Factory Records...

Damn, I don't know about The Wake. Only heard their name...

What are those other tastes we share, Pitch ?

More seriously, I was talking about all the brit indie pop bands you were talking about in your former posts - Boo Radleys in particular. And I ran through these batcave times (SoM, mission and similar crap) just like you did in my early years.. A coincidence, maybe.

Don't know... I wasn't into The Mission though. But I used to like Anne Clark (Our Darkness especially). Those were the days.

It woud be interesting to know if there's some kind of logic in going from those batcave bands tastes to the ones from today...

a logic, hmmm... How about basslines? Most of these songs used to have a solid main bass line, guitars only used to appear in the choruses. Not sure this might be the link, but..

Not sure neither.

I may have an explanation. You know, if you like sensitive music, you may think, when you'e very young that very dark and moody music is sensitive.

Then you grow up and realize you prefer something more subtle.

What do you think ?

No, I don't think the lyrics are more subtle than the more melancholic ones from the past. In fact, there are some who thinks the lyrics are a bit weaker now. But still, I like both, though some of the New Order sound is gone, especially on "Rock the Shack" and "Slow Jam". For those who likes those tracks, just indicates the obvious. We're not entirely N.O.-religious.

I found that Bernard Butler thing i mentioned before... click here..

There's also one about Peter Hook's most treasured records.. Here

We weren't talking about NO music but goth bands from when we were young and with poor tastes...

Bobby Gilespie was in The Wake, hence the new order influence

Re Geoffrey

Excuse me, Geoffroy. Too quick there! - Did only read the last lines, before the reply was posted.

Btw. talking about Goth: Even Joy Division was put in the Goth-section by journalists.

Bobby Gillespie was part of the Wake, wasn't he?

• Missing the Moon from The Field Mice is one of the best song ever written.

Ooops. Sorry Rob. I did not see you already answered my question.

Originally posted by Sébastien Boisvert > Originally posted by Geoffroy KlompkesThe Bood Radleys aldo did a song called Barney and Me that is specifically referring to the singer of New Order. I've been willing to put it online on the site for quite a while, but never found the strength to complete the group members' individual biographies (I wanted to link that song to Bernard's).

Not a bad song, too.

Seb.

Damn it, Barney and me is one of my fave Boo's songs. You're sure it's about our Barney, Seb ?

Loved The Field Mice too. Songs like "Sensitive" and "Missing The Moon" are very very New Order...

Not 100% sure myself, but that's what I was told a few years ago by someone who could be labelled as a very reliable source when it comes to these questions.

Seb.

P.S. Have you ever noticed how much Barney And Me sounds like The Cure's Just Like Heaven?

Well, I never noticed it, but there's something of it, you're right...

I'm surprised no one mentioned Nine Inch Nails

Trent really did an awesome cover of Dead Souls
