Re: New Order Drama
I like Get Ready, but not as a NO record. There are some great tracks on that album, but if you listen to these songs and compare them with their younger catalog it feels worlds apart. I kind of feel the same way about Republic - I really like that album, but it's not thier best. Post-True Faith New Order are really a different band - they are more polished and upbeat, more pop less art. Take that as you will but I perfer the earlier stuff.

Perhaps they jumped the shark at 'World in Motion' (excluding 'Reget')?

I would have to argue that the best Electronic song is 'Disappointed' which is bascially a PSB song, but I really love the PSB. Actually the Electronic songs I like the best are the ones with Neil Tennant. I still haven't listened to the other Electronic albums, Revenge, or The Other Two, but I can't imagine they would be all that good (someone yell at me if I'm wrong here).
