180g Vinyl LP + 2CD + 2DVD Box Set featuring Album Remastered for the First Time from the Original Analogue Tape Masters, Previously Unreleased Writing Sessions, John Peel Session and Live Performances Plus 48-Page Hardback Book!
New Order formed in Manchester, U.K. in 1980, rising from the ashes of Joy Division after lead singer Ian Curtis' tragic suicide. Guitarist Bernard Sumner took over on vocals, and with drummer Stephen Morris, bassist Peter Hook and keyboardist Gillian Gilbert, the group became one of the biggest British acts of their era. Pioneering the fusion of new wave, alt-rock, electronica, synth-pop, house and club music, their unique sound was as thought-provoking and soulful as it was dancefloor-ready.
The group truly came into their own on 1983's Power, Corruption & Lies, a breakthrough release which finds the band solidifying their dance and rock sound hybrid and cementing their post-Joy Division identity in the process. Hailed as "a remarkable declaration of independence" by Rolling Stone, New Order's classic second effort is highlighted by such signature tracks as "Age Of Consent," "Blue Monday" and "Your Silent Face."
The Power Corruption and Lies: Definitive Edition 180g Vinyl LP + 2CD + 2DVD box set features the album remastered for the first time from the original analogue tape masters on LP and CD. The Extras CD contains previously unreleased writing sessions from New Order's Manchester rehearsal rooms and the 1982 John Peel Session for the BBC. The DVDs capture New Order live during 1982 and 83 at The Hacienda and Kilkenny, the 1984 Play at Home Channel 4 TV documentary and other rare live and TV performances.
Finally a beautiful 48 page hardback book of rare photos and original text collated by Warren Jackson completes the box designed by Peter Saville.
