iTunes Review
Over the years, many elements of New Order’s sound have remained the same — Peter Hook’s deeply twanging bass, the knowingly plaintive vocals of Bernard Sumner, the washes of guitar and synthesizer that do more than anything else to define the band sonically — and it’s so on Waiting for the Sirens’ Call. That is to say, the few who aren’t already converts to their Velvet Underground-meets-Giorgio Moroder sound-clash will be seduced by this modest tweak on the basics. Most others, though, should find their continued interest rewarded by another helping of Sumner’s droll, underrated lyrics; they might even be surprised by touches like the dancehall borrowings on “I Told You So.” The set doesn’t quite match 2001’s comeback Get Ready, but it fits nicely into this important group’s discography.

This *is* NEW ORDER.
by Desiderius ErasmusExcellent. Finally, New Order is back.
An actual great comeback
by Jay LichtenauerI most identified with New Order with the Movement album even though I discovered them in 1986. I'm prejudice against comebacks and I've been tuned-out from New Order since 1989's Technique which I reluctantly had to admit was such as singable great album that the ladies particularly liked. I caught up with the last 3 albums this past year. I'm most surprised by this last album. On first listen it was a bit bland and I didn't listen again for a while but when I played it again out of curiosity it just started to hook. This album too is pretty singable. I particularly like how Working Overtime has a "The Fall" sound. But most of it gives me a nice 80's nostalgia feel with the synth accents yet I agree with other reviewers that it is a mature sound, really good composition. New order again defines the sound so that they don't sound like they are trying to imitate anything or appeal to a particular sound of the times. They continue to sound like New Order and I'm impressed by that ability to really keep making good music.
Truly amazing!
by dj stompheadI am a huge New Order fan and this album was on constant rotation in my CD player 3 years ago, I couldn't get enough of it. I rank it up there with their best. Very solid and they sound right where they oughta be in 2005. "Turn" is one of my fav NO songs now.
