One of the most celebrated back catalogues in British music history is set to be rediscovered when New Order’s ‘Singles’ compilation is released in remastered and updated form on September 9th.
‘Singles’ charts New Order’s finest moments, ranging from their 1981 debut ‘Ceremony’ through to the influential classic ‘Blue Monday’ and other career highlights including ‘Confusion’, ‘True Faith’, ‘Regret’ and ‘Crystal’ plus the chart-topping football anthem ‘World in Motion’.
A decade after its initial release, ‘Singles’ has been refined to become a greatly improved representation of the band’s history. The renowned Frank Arkwright (The Smiths’ ‘Complete’) at Abbey Road has remastered the collection with all audio sourced from high quality transfers.
In addition, ‘Singles’ adds ‘I’ll Stay With You’ from 2013’s ‘Lost Sirens’ album and replaces the correct single edits or mixes for the tracks ‘Nineteen63’, ‘Run 2’, ‘Bizarre Love Triangle’, ‘True Faith’, ‘Spooky’, ‘Confusion’ and ‘The Perfect Kiss’. The result is a considerable upgrade on the previous version of the album.
This new version of ‘Singles’ will be available on three formats: a heavyweight 180 gram 4LP vinyl box set, a double-CD and on digital/streaming services.
