New Order declare ‘Music Complete’ with new album

New Order have announced details of their new album, ‘Music Complete’, due on 25th September - listen to a snippet of new material below. The record will be the band’s first studio release since 2005’s ‘Waiting For The Siren’s Call’, and their first since signing with Mute.

“I don’t think we’d ever finish [an album] if we didn’t have someone to tell us to stop,” drummer Stephen Morris told Rolling Stone earlier this year. “It’s hard to let something you’re working on go.”

“Some people may say that electronic music is cold and unromantic,” guitarist Bernard Sumner added. “That’s true in a way, but now a computer is able to translate exactly what your brain is thinking. That’s exciting. It’s what we were trying to achieve in the 1980s.”
