    S2E3: America Beckons
    Sep 18 2024
    New Order finds an enthusiastic young audience in the US. Unlike British crowds, they never ask them to play ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’, and they quite like dancing. It’s seductive, but life on the road begins to take its toll on the band.

    Sep 10 2024
    New Order reflect on Low-Life, a hedonistic odyssey fuelled by unprecedented excess through London’s clubs, their first concessions to the new American label, and the lasting appeal of an album that married punk rock tradition with sci-fi modernity.

Fantastic!

I loved this very straightforward concise telling of the early history of Joy Division and New Order. The narration was spot on and the production was high. Well done!
