AMAZING!!! Classic Barney!! Yikes the wait is killing me , I guess I have to wait till the 14th to hear it, glad you got to hear it. Listening to the 30 sec clips. all the songs sounded pretty good to me, can't wait to hear the whole songs. Edited by user 03 January 2013 04:23:14(UTC)

Its pretty good. A lot of it i prefer to WFTSC. If they had finished it properly as planned i think it would have been a preferable album. Seems they put the more accessible tracks on WFTSC. These are still pretty commercial sounding but a bit weirder. SO much better than Jetstream or Working Overtime. We'll all be playing the Ultimate WFTSC game now, i've started, its a bit tricky!

Why is the release date for the U.S. January 22, according to Amazon and a few other sites? I want to get mine the 14, I don't want to have to wait for the 22nd. http://www.amazon.com/Lo...ds=new+order+lost+sirens

Got the album today and given it a few plays. It is ok but a bit of a nothing album , and I would say it is easily the weakest New Order album to date.
The album reminds me of 'Very' by The Pet Shop Boys, it has a 1990s outdated electronic sound to it. My biggest let down
is the lyrics, they are just lazy and nonsense on most of the songs.
Strongest tracks are'Californian Grass', 'I'll Stay With You' ,and 'I Told You So'.

Arse. Forgot I ordered this from Rough Trade when it was first announced (however long ago that was). Hence my £18 Vinyl/CD package arrived today, and my identical (and far cheaper one) ordered a few weeks ago will no doubt arrive tomorrow!

So basically some people are getting it 10 days before the rest of us have a chance? A bunch of us are sitting here like mugs with good-faith preorders ffs. Total. Shambles. EDIT: Cancelled my Amazon pre-order. I'll buy it directly from HMV Oxford St on the day. Edited by user 06 January 2013 05:48:30(UTC)

am at a bit of a loss here, Amazon is saying the Vinyl+ CD edition i ordered in November 2011 is now unavailable, HMV say that Vinyl + CD edition deal is available but are charging about £7 more than that original Amazon deal though and not released until the 14th. Phoned a record shop in Birmingham (Swordfish on Temple Street ) and they say they don't have it.Couple of other record shops in Birmingham i haven't phoned yet (The Diskery being one). Could order from places people have posted links to but don't think i'd get it any sooner than the 14th 'cause i think they not UK... I particularly want the vinyl.Will phone those remaining other 2 records shops in Birmingham tomorrow Saturday morning and maybe take a train ride over if there's a chance of good luck

For those with an early copy, this seems like a great software to rip the songs: http://www.goodkatshare.com/kat-cd-ripper.htmlI'm not saying one of you should pirate and spread it, but most of us already bought it, it'd be just so we can finally listen it.

'Very' by PSB was a lot more electronic-pop than any of the previews on that German site, so I'd say that's an exaggeration. As for the lyrics, dodgy lyrics didn't start in that time, so I don't understand why everybody's so surprised, or complaining about the lyrics; it's Bernard Sumner- what do you expect? It's so strange that a lot of people are slagging off his lyrics as if they realised just now, when there were dodgy lyrics on BL's album, WFTSC, Get Ready, etc Edited by user 05 January 2013 01:55:09(UTC)

BTW, is this one of those secret underground releases where no-one actually knows its out, done in a Factory kind of way? Even the record company Rhino/Warners dont mention it on their web site!
