New Order closed its brilliant run throughout the '80s with 1989's TECHNIQUE, an album epitomizing the exploding popularity of the U.K.'s acid house scene. It debuted at #1 in the U.K. and climbed to #32 on the Billboard 200 - making it the group's first non-compilation Top 40 pop album. TECHNIQUE also introduced the singles “Run,” “Fine Time” and “Round & Round,” as well as “Vanishing Point,” a song later used as the theme for a high-profile British TV show. Disc One of Rhino's new 2-CD COLLECTOR'S EDITION features the newly remastered original nine-song album, while bonus disc Disc Two compiles nine additional rarities including non-album singles, B-sides and alternative versions.

Bonus track highlights include the 12” single “World In Motion,” the official song of the English national football team in 1990's World Cup competition. Also featured is “Fine Line,” an instrumental version of the album track “Fine Time” and the B-sides “Best & Marsh” and “MTO.”

Comprised of Bernard Sumner (guitar, vocals), Stephen Morris (drums), Peter Hooks (bass) and Gillian Gilbert (keyboards), Manchester, U.K.-based band New Order was formed in 1980 by the remaining members of Joy Division after lead singer Ian Curtis' suicide. They went on to develop a groundbreaking sound mixing synthesizer-driven pop, electronic dance beats and alt-rock, releasing five influential albums during the '80s that changed the course of alternative music.

A #1 album in the U.K., 1989's TECHNIQUE is a seminal acid-house masterpiece that was New Order's first non-compilation album to crack the Billboard® 200's Top 40, rising to #32. Features the memorable singles "Run," "Fine Time," and "Round & Round," as well as "Vanishing Point," which was later used as a theme for a hit British TV show.

With pounding dance bearts and a rock backbone, this 1989 dance classic was meant to be heard on vinyl.

New Order formed in Manchester, U.K. in 1980, rising from the ashes of Joy Division after lead singer Ian Curtis' tragic death. Guitarist Bernard Sumner took on vocal duties, and with drummer Stephen Morris, bassist Peter Hook and keyboardist Gillian Gilbert, the group became one of the biggest British acts of their era. Pioneering the fusion of new wave, alt-rock, electronica, synth-pop, house and club music, their unique sound was as thought-provoking and soulful as it was dancefloor-ready.
