The 111 Best New Order Songs

In these lists, the order is always arbitrary.  If I were to publish this list every day…every day there’d be a new order.  And I’d look back at the old order and wonder what the heck was I thinking.  The old order is nowhere as good as the new order.  But I’m not going to do that.  I’m going with one order, it’s not a new order, it’s not an old order, it’s the only order.  But if you don’t like my order and prefer a new order then just hit random and you can have your New Order in any order you want.

The Best September 2015 Playlist This Month

 

September has always had that schizophrenic nature of being placed in the middle of the year, yet it’s the month that represents the beginning of many new things in our culture.  September is the month that a new school year begins, it’s the month when TV shows begin their new season and new TV shows debut, and it’s the beginning of the award season for Golden Globes, Oscars and Grammys. It’s also the time of the year when record labels begin releasing their biggest albums of the year, gearing up for the holiday season.  There are more new album releases in the first two weeks of September than in July and August combined.  (I just made that up but it sounds accurate.)  To kick off this new start as we head into the end of the year, I’ve concocted a playlist for such a time.  I’ve chosen a wide variety of music from old artists, new artists, rock to hip-hop to dance and everything in between.  Some of these are new songs to debut this month, others are from albums that will be released in the coming weeks.  Sit back, enjoy, while watching the new NFL season.

The Unknown: Bad Lieutenant – Never Cry Another Tear

 
For those who don’t know.  Bad Lieutenant is basically New Order minus Peter Hook.  It’s Summer on vocals.  Morris on drums,  and Cunningham (who replaced Gilbert) from Siren’s Call.  The only new addition is for Hooky’s bass.
 
How unknown is this band?  Well…I didn’t know they existed and I’m a huge New Order fan.  I knew the band broke up…but didn’t know the others had reformed.  My early review is that this is a solid release.  It sounds more like their 80s material than their more recently “electronica-dancy” material.  It’s not as great as their 80s material…but a solid first step.
 
Now I can’t wait to hear Hooky’s new band Freebass.
