| One of New Order's first albums, and a strong album in general, but its weaknesses show. Songs like, "Age Of Consent," "Blue Monday," and "Your Silent Face," make the album seem brilliant and full of hits, but there are a few misses, and they are obvious. Much of the album is very similar...techno mixed with guitar mixed with drums mixed with vocals mixed with bass. Very simple. At the time that this album came out, New Order was not even close to the potential that so many thought they had, and that they have now proven to all. All in all, the album rates among the worst of New Order albums, but for some bands, this would be their biggest hit. Reviewer Rating of CD : | |
