New Order are delighted to announce the release of the definitive edition of their 1985 studio album Low-Life. The 2-CD/2-DVD/1-LP collection includes rare and unreleased material, new sleeve designs, and a hardbound book.
CD-2 contains previously unreleased mixes and alternative versions, including instrumentals of “Love Vigilantes” and “Sub-Culture," along with the “Album Session Unedited Version” of “Sooner Than You Think.”
The two DVDs include an unreleased performance from The Manhattan Club, Belgium and rarely seen footage from Rotterdam Arena (Netherlands), International Centre (Toronto, Canada), and a BBC-filmed Whistle Test at The Hacienda, 1985.
The 180-gram vinyl will be wrapped in its original heavyweight tracing paper, designed by Peter Saville. In addition, the CD will also be wrapped in the same paper for the first time ever. Also included in the set is a beautifully presented hardback book featuring rare photos and a new interview with all band members.
