New Order releasing new live LP ft. 12-piece "synthesizer orchestra" (listen to "Sub-Culture")
You may remember that New Order played the 2017 Manchester International Festival where they “deconstructed, rethought and rebuilt” songs from their catalogue, and and played alongside a “12-strong synthesizer ensemble from the Royal Northern College of Music, with Mancunian composer Joe Duddell, conducting and providing the orchestrations.” That show is now a live album, titled ∑(No,12k,Lg,17Mif) New Order + Liam Gillick: So it goes.., which will be out July 12 via Mute. (Preorder yours.) The title references both the show’s collaboration with visual artist Liam Gillick and late Factory Records owner Tony Wilson’s Granada Television series So it Goes. In addition to hits like “Sub-Culture,” “Shellshock” and “Bizarre Love Triangle,” the album features great deep cuts like “All Day Long,” “Dream Attack,” “Vanishing Point” and more. You can listen to the live album’s version of “Sub-Culture” and check out the full tracklist below.
New Order will be on the festival circuit this summer, all over the UK and Europe, and have European headline dates this fall. All are listed below.
