New Order to begin making “electronic synth” LP in 2013
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 18 September 2012
Bernard Sumner has said that New Order will begin recording an “electronic synth” LP in 2013. When it’s released, it’ll represent the band’s first since 2005’s ‘Waiting For The Siren’s Call’, not to mention Sumner et al’s public falling-out with now ex-bassist Peter Hook.
Speaking about the new record from backstage at this year’s Bestival, Sumner told Mixmag: “We’ve not had time to do it this year as we’ve played so many gigs, but next year we’re not going to play so many, so we’ll do it then”.
He added: “I think I’d like to make an electronic synth album, as the last few that I’ve done have been guitar albums”.
