If this ain't synthpop, what is it. Movement is more post-punk because they still trying to get the JD stench off, but I would say the pop starts with this album

it's no-pop

Album Rating: 4.5

No-pop it is, you've convinced me.



"get the JD stench off"

I'm fumin'

Post top 5 new order songs. (Ceremony is allowed)

Album Rating: 4.5

1. Senses

2. Dreams Never End

3. Denial

4. The Him

5. Leave Me Alone



Probably forgot a few here

Senses is most definitely number 1 though

Hate to sound like a NO noob, but at least 3 of 5 songs on my list would be singles lol

Album Rating: 4.5

They had good singles, can't deny that.

So yeah Joy Division is an objectively better band

Album Rating: 5.0

nah NO is way more enjoyable to put on for me so I find it to be 'better'

Album Rating: 4.5

All of it though? Even their post-Technique stuff?

Gotta disagree.

Album Rating: 5.0

well not every single album is better but they have several that are. all these are great but for me the best to worst is -

Technique

Power, Corruption

Low-Life

Unknown Pleasures

Brotherhood

Movement

Republic

Closer

Get Ready

Album Rating: 4.5

You must look 𝕠𝕓𝕛𝕖𝕔𝕥𝕚𝕧𝕖𝕝𝕪, foxblood.

Album Rating: 4.0

I would rank every NO album above both 'Closer' and 'Unknown Pleasures' (each of which I currently have at a 2.0 rating).

Not to imply objective quality, importance, historical relevance, etc. etc., but in my heart of hearts I prefer listening to the worst NO album over the best JD album.

I am ready for my punishment.

Album Rating: 4.5

Where's the holy water.......................



@fox Movement that low, I'm out of here.

Album Rating: 4.0

I respect Technique that high, though. Underrated album.

Technique is easily their best album imo. I'd say Get Ready is the underrated album in their discog

Album Rating: 4.5

Permanent jams

Album Rating: 4.0

As eclectic as I’d like to be, I can’t deny that this is my favorite NO album in a walk. So good. All killer no filler.

Album Rating: 4.5

Agreed. This, Substance, and Movement are all stone cold classics. I'd really love to be able to catch Peter Hook's band play some JD & NO tunes once normalcy begins to return.

Ain't he and Bernard sworn enemies now?
