BLUE MONDAY: NEW ORDER 1981 - 2007

New Order have split up after 27 years of making music. No, really, I think they're serious this time. A "Blue Monday", indeed. (Yeah, I wrote that joke all by myself.)

I honestly haven't heard much of anything they've put out since "Republic" in 1993, but I sure did listen to them a whole lot in high school and college. Their double CD collection "Substance" (1987) remains a must-own.

I project their reunion show at Coachella in 2013.
