is there anything better than those synths on New Order's "Age of Consent"

[neopryn]

i don't think so

[neopryn]

the village is the most underrated new order song

[noyen]

the guitar solo on maggot brain is way better.

[redbull]

maggot brain is overrated

[teh b0lly!!1]

could someone be a total kickass and compile a few great new order songs for me to check out?
i always wanted to get into them but never quite did that

[redbull]

just get power, corruption, and lies

[unlachs]

do they stand up to gary numan though?

[aztec litany service]

i'd prefer to say you can't compare, so i don't have to.
(and it's numan, dammit )
edit: not that i care, his real name is webb anyway

"get ready" is actually my fav NO album (and not just cause billy's on it ). def. a contender for my fav album of this decade..
i was looking for a vid of 1963 (the original mix dammit, i hate that other one) but couldnt find it, so i uploaded the song:
http://www.mediafire.com/?mmobdx5mhtb

...

the perfect kiss


true faith


procession [live 81]


temptation [live 82] (i think the 87 version is the definitive, but this is cool)


blue monday


yaawwwnn

[aztec litany service]

ha, this is cool, a "fan-made vid" for 'ceremony' done in the 80s on 8mm.


ah, and i just realised i'd never heard the original version of this song . maybe when billy said it's uncool to rerecord songs he was thinking of new order

[aztec litany service]

sorta cheesy fanvid for 'run wild' from get ready...great, great song

[yoshinobu's revenge]

"ceremony" is better than thsoe synths on age of consent


run wild is indeed an awesome song. one of my favourites off of get ready

dreams never end
blue monday
love vigilantes
bizarre love triangle
ceremony
1963
crystal


the 1994 "best of" compilation is decent, or the 2005 "singles" one. or of course 1987's "substance"

Maybe Honkey Tonk Women by the Rolling Stones?

[aztec litany service]

or that

[celluloid_love]

new order have about two good songs and they both sound like joy division

Things That Are Better Than the Synths on New Order's "Age of Consent":

Burning Star Core - "Through the Bars of A Rhyme"

i would add 584, Leave Me Alone, Run and The Village

my fav new order song though is the Perfect Kiss

[aztec litany service]

uh, it's '5 8 6'
and it's a blue monday wannabe, not that there's anything wrong with that. actually blue monday itself is really similar to everything's gone green.

[maoi]

i see danger-danger-danger!

[aztec litany service]

3 miles to go...at the end of the road...

[spidersoma]

this thread inspired me to go check out New Order's Wikipedia page which lead me to checking out Joy Division's Wikipedia page which has caused me to now be watching "Control" on the internet. This movie is brilliant thusfar. Did you all get a chance to check it out?

[aztec litany service]

hmm, movies.
i'll check it yo

...

just watched...it was depressing, of course. i dunno, a movie no matter how good couldn't be good enough. man for some reason i thought he was older than 23. damn.

[mojo]

i love the mournful sense of space in leave me alone - such simple chords but it sounds as "big" as any u2 epic and without the fucking bombast.

[teh b0lly!!1]

i only ever really listened to "get ready", i like it - it's a pretty good album
that old new order stuff doesn't really do it for me - the way i see it, a band like that relies pretty heavily on stellar production and arrangement, which i can't really say i heard on their 80's material

technique and republic are both very well produced albums and the songs shit on get ready. and true faith and blue monday still sound pretty good to my ears.

you're retarded, 80s New Order shits all over everything else

[neopryn]

after careful consideration i've decided that the synths on "Your Silent Face" are just as good

[smashingjj]

to answer the initial question, yes

[mojo]

when arcade covered aoc on their last tour it came dangerously close to being the high point of the set - and that was without the synths.
