Product Details

Released the same year Bernard Sumner and Peter Hook were quietly rewriting the rulebook for what guitar bands could sound like, *Low-Life* arrived at a pivotal moment when New Order were playing massive festival stages while remaining fiercely independent on Factory. Tracks like "The Perfect Kiss" and "Love Vigilantes" showed a band fully in command of two worlds, the dancefloor and the rock stage, without compromising either.

Low-Life is the third studio album by English rock band New Order, released on 13 May 1985 by Factory Records. It is considered one of the band's strongest works, and marks the moment when they completed their transformation from post-punk to dance-rock. The album shows New Order's greater integration of synthesizers and samplers, while retaining the rock elements of their previous work. The original pressings of the album, released by Factory Records, were mastered with pre-emphasis. Tracks from this album formed the basis of the band's live concert video, Pumped Full of Drugs, filmed in Tokyo shortly before the album's release. The music video for "The Perfect Kiss" was directed by Jonathan Demme.
