The problem when your favourite band comes back after a few years on the sidelines is that you're worried that they won't be as good as they used to be.

Those doubts become particularly pronounced when those band members have been involved in some projects of their own that have been of doubtful quality.

Unlike with many of **New Order's** tracks, Crystal does not need several listens to persuade you of its quality. It is a confident, strutting return of a band that knows that the music industry has missed it, and is willing to do something about

Peter Hook and that bass of his. My God. Talk about iconic sounds...

"Here comes love / It's like honey / You can't buy / it with money"  The evoking lyrics of this song perfectly capture what was like living during the Great Honey Ban of 1975-2005

when my mate first saw this video he thought new order had gotten a new singer. "some young guy, he really sounds like bernard, though."

This album revived the indie scene and took it in a new direction that lead to bands like the Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian, The Killers (of course, this figuratively birthed them) and the plethora of other early 00's alternative rock bands. It deserves far more credit than it got. Just as they influenced an entire era of synth rock and dnace back in the 80's and early 90's.
