New Order - "Technique" - Their best album released at the peak of their powers.

Yay, a Feelgood vid! 👍👍 I stumbled upon Technique on vinyl when it first dropped… at a Pathmark! 🤪 Instant classic, needless to say! ❤️👍 p.s. I knew we were close in age… I was a freshman in high school when this came out 👌

The last great New Order album? Possibly 😆 I do like this album it's not my personal favourite but it's up there! It's great you're back! So many bands to get this great format from you! Cough Wire! 😂 As an older DJ at this time loads of great stuff I was doing Rock, Indie, Dance, Alternative whatever that was? I did house and electronic not to the same level as yourself but I was not as good as some other great DJ'S so did less as I got a proper job! The Shamen, Jesus Jones, were popular in the Midlands in the UK! Where I was based! Laughably Britpop which wasn't a genre in my eyes! 👍great video!

Also, couldn’t agree more about Vanishing Point! I play synths and was fortunate enough to own a Roland D-20 at the time. I used to play this and Round & Round on it, sequencing the drums and all, constantly back in the day. 😁👍 Good times 🎵

Such a spot review! Technique is my 2nd favorite LP of theirs, as it was the perfect blend of the rock and electro period. As soon as Fine Time started, you knew the New Order upped their game! Love Less knocked it out of the park for me - what a great “Look Back In Anger” moment perfectly captured. I concur that Technique was the end of an era for New Order - they never seemed to have the same energy afterwards. Republic was not a favorite for me, and though it had slick production it lacked an identity unlike the previous records. Even the artwork seemed to take a dive. The band will always be lauded (and rightly so) but I suspect these days people are listening to their past and not the present. Nice to have you back 🙂

Yes WIM did get to number 1 in the UK.Their one and only. PCL is most likely my favourite New Order album but Technique is awesome. Vanishing Point is in my top 5 New Order songs.
