everything i say is false

I first heard NewOrder in high school. The high school I went to was cool in that people listened to alternative music (back when it was actually an alternative to something). I was tired of the heavy metal and rap to which most guys listened. NewOrder was one of those bands that was great without all the pretentious male posturing and bullshit(see my signature line). And, Barney's vocal range is one of the few I can actually match. And the fact that they sprang up from a totally cool and different band, Joy Division, made them that much more interesting.
