Waiting for the Siren's Call,
by New Order
I have been disappointed in New Order's more recent
releases, so when I placed this in the CD player, I was not expecting much.
However, instead of being disappointed, I was very pleasantly surprised. This is
probably one of the best albums I've heard so far this year. The sound is full,
lush beautiful - and danceable. There is even some references to their earlier
work as part of Joy Division in the more out and out "rock" tracks. I'll even go
out on a limb and say that overall, this is up there with Low Life,
perhaps even better.
