New Order Tracks Go To The Vault
Of the 18 tracks for New Order's 'Waiting for the Sirens', seven will go into the vault for future use.
"We usually do just enough for an album, ten songs and it's done. The seven tracks left off 'Sirens'' are so strong that they are likely to form the basis of a future LP" says Bernard Sumner.
The title track is wistful and sublime, considered by the band to be one of the best tracks they've ever made. Then there's the perfect pop of "Jetstream" (Bernard's vocals augmented by Scissor Sister Ana Matronic); the wry, hilarious regret of "Morning Night And Day," "I Told You So"'s reckless ragga lope; the Iggy stomper "Working Overtime," and the anthemic, tuneful "Hey Now What You Doing." "Waiting For The Sirens' Call" is the diverse, devastating, delicious sound of a great band at its peak.
The album features multiple producers including Stephen Street (Blur, The Smiths), John Leckie (Pink Floyd, Stone Roses), Stuart Price (Madonna) and New Order themselves.
Their follow-up to 2001's 'Get Ready' will be released on April 12.
