New Order. Substance 1987. Qwest Records(9 25621-1). 1987. Double Album. Substance is a compilation album by English alternative dance band New Order. It was released in August 1987 by Factory Records and in the US by Qwest Records. The album compiles all of the band's singles at that point in their 12-inch versions, along with their respective B-side track. It's a simple concept--the first dozen singles by New Order collected, a couple of them rerecorded--but it's also a totally entertaining seven-year history of the band that married British post-punk alienation to the relentless hedonism of the dance floor. The band's hits were always deeply unconventional (like the haunting "Blue Monday," essentially a seven-minute drum machine test with a short lyric that alluded to the Falklands War), but they were brilliant productions, layering dozens of electronic countermelodies and percussion tricks over Barney Sumner's uncertain warble and Peter Hook's lead bass parts. Though they're audio snapshots of the dance beats of their time, they've held up both as club classics and as idiosyncratic rock songs. --Douglas Wolk
