new order, absolutely! of course they've made records that are not masterpieces but in the 80's they were the best band in the world.

of course joy division were great too, and they never released a bad record, not even a bad song, but still (sic)... NEW ORDER!

Joy Division.

New Order never really did all that much for me.

yeah, i can concur with Joy Division being better. New Order's first album, Movement, is a classic and not unlike Joy Division too much. Their early Peel Session with Too Late, Turn the Heater On, is fantastic too. Other than that, they were just an 80's dance thing.

has new order broken up? like i know peter hook was all like "see you in court" but then i heard he was reconsidering breaking up the band due to the death of tony wilson. he said it made him reconsider things. so does anyone know the official status. also why peter hook became an ass all of a sudden?

has anyone ever seen him DJ, he came to ottawa once but i ddin't go see him because i was to young

Perfect kiss has frog solo and for me you just can't beat that.

Really? A new-wave dance group funded largely by white powder beats out Sonic Youth and Sun City Girls for best band in the '80s?

Joy Division without any doubts.

Yes.

i find it kind of disturbing when people think new order are awesome too

Don't be disturbed my friend.

yeah! not sure if they beat caroliner though.

I love them both

no one can beat caroliner.

yeah, i guess you're right.

I'm not entirelyt sure what this means... but Insight has a rubber ducky solo (hehe)... and that definitlely beats anything New Order ever did.

UH, JOY DIVSION

hands down.

THIS IS NOT EVEN A LEGITIMATE QUESTION.
thank you, that is all.
