New Order - Low-Life (1985) 2CD Collector's Remastered Edition 2008 [Correct Reissue 2009] Music

Posted by Designol at Nov. 29, 2023

Low-Life is the third studio album by English rock band New Order. Released in May 1985 by Factory Records, Low-Life is considered to be among New Order's strongest work, displaying the moment in which the band completed its transformation from post-punk hold-overs to dance rock. The album shows New Order's increased incorporation of synthesizers and samplers, while still preserving the rock aspects of their earlier work. In 2000, Q magazine placed Low-Life at number 97 in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever. Low-Life (alongside New Order's 1989 album Technique) was included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. In 2008 the album was re-released as 2×CD Collector's Edition set, with the bonus disc containing non-album singles, 12" mixes and b-sides.

Dub, Afrobeat | Label: Kindred Spirits Holland

Never Expect Power Always (aka N.E.P.A.) is largely a biting criticism and mocking of the Nigerian Electrical Power Authority, rife with corruption and poor service. It starts out with the title track, with a definite Afro-beat punch and a tighter arrangement than would normally be expected from Fela. Electro-claps stand as part of the percussion line, adding to a more modern look at what Afro-beat was becoming.

Here are songs based on Robert Louise Stevenson's "Treasure Island," alongside tracks like "Jennings Revenge" about the exploits of the infamous pirate Henry Jennings. With 350,000 copies sold worldwide, "Pile Of Skulls" proved another success for Running Wild.

'The Death Dealer sound is a mighty combination of five very talented, seasoned musicians,' explains Ross. 'It's classic power metal with the brutal edge of thrash, speed, and precision.'
