Metamatic Forums Socialising The Green Room New Order

No, I cannot believe it. They can't be.

The Sunday Times & The Times will start giving away free albums from this Sunday. Those bands mentioned are; The Doors (Strange Days) and albums by; Love, Echo & The Bunnymen, Jesus & Mary Chain, Joy Division and New Order - at present, I've no idea which albums are to be issued.

OMG i can see it now it's gonna be Closer and Movement with the Sunday Times...I can't believe it... what is the country coming to?

I know what you mean - if it is one of the New Order albums proper - why are they giving it away free a week after the expensive (and if rumours are true, poor) re-masters released last week?

Strange Days indeed

The journal entries of the late Rob Gretton - the 'Brian Epstein' of New Order (or should that be 'The Radical Jesuits'? ) are soon to hit the shelves;

'Closer' and 'Power, Corruption and Lies'

I'm stunned, WTF!?

Am I in the wrong country or what? There are never any free cds in the papers and if there were there certainly would not be anything like New Order or Heaven 17. :rolleyes:

Mind you, you'd have to say it is good publicity. I don't know what the circulation of The Times/The Sunday Times is these days but there's a certain audience there that might be tempted further into the back catalogue (and to buy the 2CD version of PCL). Especially with albums THAT good.

.... GIVE AWAY 'CLOSER'

DID I READ THAT CORRECTLY ??!!
