4.0 out of 5 stars similar to recent New Order albums, October 2, 2009

If you liked the two most recent New Order albums, then you'll love this. It sounds very similar. I do miss Peter Hook's distinctive bass, though. That's the only thing that keeps this from five stars. Otherwise, the songwriting is well crafted, produced and full of New Order type melodies. I don't think Sink or Swim is the best choice as a lead single. Listen to a few other tracks for a better sampling of the album.

3.0 out of 5 stars New Order meets Del Amitri, October 3, 2009

For hardcore JD/NO/Electronic fans, there is very little here to remind them of their past brilliance. The album essentially is a "bait and switch" technique..starts off with a few promising Sumner tracks and then mutates into a completely different sound with a competely different vocalist. While Jake Evans is not a bad vocalist in his own right, I don't see how his vocal style would interest any fans of New Order, nor does it complement Sumner's. Give me Neil Tennant and a synthesizer any day over this pseudo-country/coffehouse rock. Sorry Bernard, if this is the type of music you want to write now, I won't be looking forward to anymore of your releases..

Front man Bernard Sumner, drummer Stephen Morris and guitarist Phil Cunningham have joined with Blur's Alex James for Bad Lieutenant's debut album. If you're a fan of Bernard Sumner/New Order/Electronic/Joy Division you won't be disappointed with this release. Think of this as a New Order release minus Peter Hooks booming baselines.

Very reminiscent of previous New Order and Electronic releases.

It's good to have them back after the breakup with Hook.
