Rising from the ashes of the legendary British post-punk unit Joy Division, the enigmatic New Order triumphed over tragedy to emerge as one of the most influential and acclaimed bands of the 1980's, embracing the electronic textures and disco rhythms of the underground club culture many years in advance of its contempraries. "New Order Story" is the definitive documentary on the band and traces their history all the way back to its origin with Joy Division. This extended version includes additional interviews and live footage, over 2 hours of great New Order footage. A longform video chronicling the band's history and music with interviews by Bono, Neil Tennant, Quincy Jones and others.

Reviews

DoktorSammySlick "New Order Story" is one of the best music documentaries I've ever seen. >From the tragic fall of Ian Curtis and Joy Division, to the peak of success as one of the worlds leading "pop" bands. The documentary is filled with familiar faces, including New Order members themselves, speaking about their career and what not. I felt that this film really conveyed a good insight into what the people in New Order are like, seeing as they are a somewhat "quiet" band when it comes to the media. Also, "New Order Story" is an amazing collection of music videos and is perfect for anyone that likes such things. I understand that there are more than one version available, at least one of which is shorter and far less cool. So do your homework before buying this one.

James Stephen Barnes I didn't appreciate Bono popping up on screen in those annoying rock-star sunglasses murdering "Love Will Tear Us Apart". Also, much as I love Pet Shop Boys, Neil Tennant was irritating when he couldn't decide what his favourite NO song was. On the other hand, Keith Allen was as great as ever, and it was good to see Barney, Peter, Gill and Steven cut loose and enjoy themselves. It's also nice to see rare promo videos such as "Atmosphere" and live performances from Joy Division/New Order.Less Bono, less of Tony Wilson, more promos., this would have been the perfect video for the perfect band

seamuss .... and they should also say "never watch documentaries about them." While this is informative, and insightful, and the promos in the video release are great, to be honest I preferred the aloof, inscrutable NO. And I HATED the moment when Bono (BONO!) suddenly interrupts love will tear us apart to deliver his own monstrous rendition. Worth a look, but its always a little sad to lose something of mystique.

Spotnick Beware, this movie is actually sold in 2 different ways, one for the USA, and one for the rest of the world. The USA version is only half of the time.On the Canadian version, you will also find the music videos for the following songs:Transmission, Love Will Tear Us Apart, Ceremony, Temptation, Blue Monday, Touched by the Hand of God, Bizarre Love Triangle, Confusion, Shellshock, State of the Nation, Perfect Kiss, True Faith, Round & Round, World In Motion, Fine Time, Regret, Temptation (Live), Everyone Everywhere (Live), Ruined In A Day, World and AtmosphereOverall, it's a good way to learn about New Order.
