This one wasn’t for me. I quite like the instrumental track. I quite like that the bass makes it sound like The Cure sometimes. But otherwise, I was just waiting for it to end.
Not my cup o tea. Reminds me of "the cure" but not a fan of the vocals.
Classic 80s electro pop sound, but with some terrible singing thrown in.
I tried...but this album is shit
Boring
I really don't like this at all. The melody is really repetitive and the songs are long. The singing is mediocre. There's just no rhythm to any of it. It feels like a set of classic bad 80s songs, where's a bunch of repetitive techno and no god damn soul to any of it.
I like some of NO's songs, but this album is u listenable for me, especially thanks to the production but also Bernard Sumner's surprisingly insecure vocals.
I bought this album at the time but consider it the beginning of the end in terms of creditability. Power, Corruption & Lies was the perfect hybrid of styles but by this time they'd really started to get swallowed up whole by synths, drum machines and insipid lyrics. They're like the hollowed out shell of a once great band. It's horrible and soulless.
Standard 80s. I just couldn’t. Not on a Friday at work. Is that unfair to the album? Maybe. But I don’t care. The album already knows its socioeconomic status and is self aware enough to proclaim it boldly on the cover. I wish the music was just as bold.
rip new order you would’ve love soundcloud.
I didn't much care for this album although I do like New order.
Crappy, shallow, Casio-demo, bullshit synth, britpop. It's worthless trash and I'm mad I had to listen to 40 minutes of it.
Shite. He can’t sing
Terrible
Nearly unlistenable boring garbage
Low-Life is better than Technique but New Order were crap, and this proves it. Another 1.
Hatte ich New Order nicht mal gelobt vor einiger Zeit? Ich kann diese Platte nicht hören. Belangloser Achtziger-Pop.
Wow, I really hated this guy's voice. It just sounded nasally and whiny. The instrumentals and synth were okay, I guess, but they didn't do much of anything to redeem the album. I listened to the whole thing and I hate myself for it.
No ty
Wack
I couldn't pick a song I liked. Not for me.
My mom said if I don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.
I hate that hangover voice
didn't like it at all
Just a laughably bad album. No notable songs and better singing could be found in the NYC subway. Also, sounded like the album was jumped around genres? 2/10.
I don’t remember
I really have a problem with New Order's sound.
It was bad, my 4 year old liked to dance to it.
Didn’t listen to it all because I just couldn’t deal with it.
80er.
did not like
not good
Lazy 80s
A classic.
First impression is overall very disjointed from track to track, and felt like it was trying to do too much at once. It opened with a Madchester sound, then moved into some dance tracks with an attempt a crooning vocals that were really more cawing. then some brooding dance tracks, upbeat post-punk jangle, instrumental intermission, then more dance-y wailing stuff. *Also, for a 2015 remaster the production quality seemed lower than I would have expected.
Decent.
