UK first press 1988.
New Order fully embracing the club without losing the weird edge. Acid flecks, looping vocals and that elastic groove doing all the heavy lifting. It is brighter, looser and way more playful than people sometimes remember, but still unmistakably them. Feels like the sound of a band having a great night out and bringing everyone with them. Still an absolute mover.
