New Order FAC101

Its BANISH time!

Me and the one and only Major-T have come up with a dastardly plan in what is a wry slant on the original room101

This time only NewOrder related annoyances are permitted into FAC101 *

let the condemnation begin

* (disclaimer) In no way does this affect the loyalty to the band by its die hard fans, this will not affect your statutary rights blah blah..

Please, please, please banish...

The video for Run and also the bit in Slow Jam between the start and the end.

Thankyou.

All Day Long is to be consigned to the wipeout bin please !

The sleeve to "Raise the pressure" MUST go!

Side 2 of Republic - down the Toilet 101 with it!!!

Never as long as it contains SPECIAL.

We all stand International's sleeve Retro's sleeve AND content ;)

Ruined In A Day digipack.

Fine Time must go.

Here's something that needs rescuing from FAC101 - Hooky's bass guitar sound on Republic : I can only assume that's where the trademark sound has disappeared too anyway

1-The third disc of Retro

2-The backing vocals on "Shame of the nation"

3-"60 MPH" video

4-The journalists that say New Order are a "techno band"

60 MAH video ?? Don't think that'll be popular!!!

I'll vote for:

The Substance version of Subculture The liner notes on RTP Whoever decided to "hide" LV on Retro;)

Fingermarks on record sleeves. Creases on 12 inch covers! Dust on covers. SHUGZV Anyone who thought ROCKET MICK was real!:D Anyone who thought ROCKET MICK was fake! Less than 300 in your collection! MAJOR T! Ruined in a LIFETIME! Blue Monday 88 and its crap cover! Drinking Not taking loads of DRUGS! JIM RR.:D Magazines with coffee stains on them! NOOL:p

My number five too

6-Whoever decided to hide TLU, VP, ATW and Weirdo on Retro

7-Whoever decides not to make a real NO collection (double CD with 28 or 29 tracks)

I'd like to banish Hooky's spandex trousers/tights from the Hand of God video. And Barney's "hopping from one foot to the other" weird uncle dance. And Steve's jacket and jumper combination from that early Joy Division photo shoot in the snow.

god. you're so wrong, dude.

but out with 'chemical' and that keyboardy dissonant crap melody on 'fine time' (you all know what i mean). yuckity yuck. oh, and 'in a lonely place'.

and no more threads comparing new order to depeche mode, please!! yes, i like DM, but come on, this poor horse died ages ago yet we still continue to beat the crap out of it!

1- We All Stand; 2- Gillian's haircut and makeup on Taras (how come Robert Smith never sued her?) 3- Steven's smile on World In Motion ("I don't care if it's shite; it is our only #1 and I wrote it"); 4- Monaco's "Music For Pleasure" (bought it, listened once and never listened to a single Monaco's song again. My ears are not ready for that yet, and they probably never will); 5- Barney's woops and whistles; 6- Import taxes on NO's itens (OK, it applies to every single product imported, but it pisses me off anyway);

I hate and detest the digipak single format, so they can go.

I also wanna banish this idiot band who was sitting in front of me and my date at the 89 Portland show: the Dharma Bums, who had a bit of popularity stateside in the indie scene for awhile, but were absolute bollocks whenver I happened to see them live, with their sub-R.E.M. style. I can clearly recall the annoyance of a lot of people when they were added to a Julian Cope show, and we asked the box office that they should pay us to listen to those clowns. Shut the f*ck up and get off of the freakin' stage already!

These clueless individuals were just standing stock still while the Order were onstage, and then they left not even half way through the show. Still makes me mad to this day, sorry I just had to get that off my chest.

Banish the following:

• Lonesome Tonight (because of that stupid spit part)
• Every Little Counts (because the lyrics are worthless)
• Ruined In A Day reggae mixes
• 60 Miles An Hour (Supermen Lovers Remix)
• Anyone who doesn't like State Of The Nation (I'm sick of the badmouthing this song)
• Those 10,000 remixes of True Faith that all sound like the Shep Pettibone remix, the only difference being they are all different by say a minute and a few seconds...
• The Eighth Circle and OPK for butchering Bizarre Love Triangle
• Anyone who thinks New Order coverd Orgy's 'Blue Monday' (haha!!)
• Run Wild (just because it does nothing for me)
• The fact that there was no 3rd CD in Substance (Bizarre Dub Triangle, Subvulture/Dubvulture, True Dub..)
• The fact that they didn't include Vicious Circle in Republic
• Anyone who dislikes Doubts Even Here
• The fact that the ony way to get Brutal in your collection is to buy some shit soundtrack, Retro or burn a CD-R
• The ending (or shall I say 'outro') to Shellshock by The Rams (from the new tribute)
• The fact that they stopped playing Procession live
• Billy Corgan, when he was 'with' New Order :P
• Anyone who disrespects Ian Curtis or the album dedicated to him

retro's content? are you mad there's some of new orders fines stuff in there!

surely its the concept you don't like rather than the content?

Excessively tall people who stand at the VERY front at gigs, usually up by the barriers, blocking your view, ruining photographs and generally appearing disinterested throughout, they dont make a sound, they dont move a muscle and appear to want to be somewhere else.

Yes, Retro's content! Those darned plastic CD-cases are shite!

Oh you SHOULD listen to it, this contains a few gems...

It's a real grower...

I have to echo Nic here - M4P is a very worthy album with some mighty fine tracks (and just the odd duffer;))

Originally posted by Al Jarvis 1. Republic2. Twisted Tenderness3. Raise the Pressure4. Current live versions of BLT, Touched and True Faith (why fix what ain't broken?).

surely not all of tt - it contains some of electronic's finest moments - Prodigal son ranks up with many NO songs. Agree about live versions of BLT and Touched, but True Faith live has been excellent recently.

Republic!!! Having Regret, RIAD and Everyone Everywhere on it?

The fourth one, completely agree. Specially True Faith.

PLEASE BARNEY,HOKKY, STEPHAN AND GILLIAN: COME BACK TO THE SUBSTANCE VERSION

i'm going to get it for this one, but i'm ready...

sunrise. it sounds like it should be on 'kiss me, kiss me, kiss me', not 'low-life.'

Ok, I'll listen it for a second time then. But just because you guys told me to.

The thing is that when I heard it I got really shocked with the endless NO samplings (specially from Brotherhood) on every song. Then I thought "C'mon, this Hooky guy comes with a side-project and everything he does is coping NO songs? Fuck off!!".

That's why I never heard it again. Oh, and I also hate his Monaco modern-fashion look with those silver shirts. He looks like an extra on "Plan 9 From Outer Space".

1. New Order female BACKING VOCALS
2. Peter Saville sleeves (cos 90% of them are crap)
3. Hooky's grunting on their songs
4. "Radio Edits" - they're best songs are LONG LONG LONG.
5. Any truncated versions of TEMPTATION / HURT - cos those two songs alone should last THREE WEEKS.

I'd ban excessively tall people anywhere. People should be short. There's a reason NO are all pretty short.

Ban the woman at move fest who stood next to me and shouted along to every song even though she didn't know any of the words. Also, her voice sounded like a cat hitting a tennis racket at 60 MPH.

Example vocal from her:

"Yeah wooo woo woo nothing i regret... yeah ... la la la la la la la laaaa woo woo screech screech wooo kids have run yeah wooo screech screech"

You may meet up with some lofty opposition to this one !

The recorded version is rather muted compared to the live fury, that much is true. What is "kiss me kiss me kiss me" though ? Not a Cure album surely ?

train spotter head on

yep, as well you know! it's the one with the free orange vinyl single, double or triple album or something.

Dinosaur jr covered one of the singles from it.

not listened to it since was a spotty student so not sure if it fits on it or not mind

I had to painfully endure an entire set of theirs at Reading 93 so i could secure myself a decent place down the front for the HEADLINING act on the sunday :D
