A friend sent me this. It's a good example of why I don't read Pitchfork - these pretentious twats are too cool for the Beatles.

Ouch. Quite nice an article. As the german listener, i dont understand why people are fussing over the lyrics - sounds a bit envious of NO: "Unlike their peers in The Cure, no matter what they do, their fans always seem to forgive them." Thats it. Forgive them.
Ott can pitchfork off. Pretentious twats like the writers there make the NME sycophants look like decent journalists !
Anyone who qualifies The C*re as New Order's 'peers' obviously knows f'all about New Order, their music, their fanbase.
Or is probably an American. 
Peers shmeers.
The Cure, in their early days, had quite good cover versions of New Order songs: "In Between Days" is my favourite. (or did they write it themselves)

They are also upset cause they were not Joy Division 
didn't realise there were two threads about this ?! to summarise what I put on the other one: the guy's a wanker !
That was funny. :) I laughed. I do like the closing line though: "New Order, whatever they are." That was trying to be an insult, but it's true. They don't have one specific thing they do.
ps: Hats off to Major for hitting 3000. :) Cheers mate.
