Get Ready, released in 2001 through London Records in the UK and Reprise Records in the US, is the seventh studio album by English Alternative Dance band New Order. Following the Troubled Production of 1993's Republic and an exhausting North American tour, the band spent the better chunk of the '90s on hiatus, with the members focusing on their various side-projects (with Bernard Sumner seeing a particularly good amount of attention in the UK leading Electronic). In 1998, the band regrouped at the suggestion of manager Rob Gretton, who had them iron out their past grudges; they would do their first show in four years at the Reading Festival, where they finally incorporated Joy Division material into their setlist for the first time since Ian Curtis' suicide in 1980. Gretton would pass away from a heart attack the following year.After taking the time to recover from Gretton's death, the members of New Order decided to return to the studio in 2000 to put together a new studio album. With their last new material having come out nearly a decade prior, they chose to shake up their sound to account for how radically the cultural landscape had changed since Republic, and leaned into a more straightforward Alternative Rock sound with heavy components from newer forms of of Electronic Dance Music, both as a middle ground between Sumner and bassist Peter Hook's contrasting preferences and as a way of adapting to the post-OK Computer era.Unlike the tense recording of Republic, the making of Get Ready went by fairly smoothly, allowing the album to be completed within just a year. Notably, the album sees the debut of Dawn Zee, who would act as a backing vocalist for the band on not only this album, but their following ones too. Conversely, it would also end up being the last album made with New Order's original lineup: Gillian Gilbert would temporarily retire to look after her and drummer/husband Stephen Morris' children, and though she ultimately rejoined the band in 2011, Hook would depart four years ahead of that.Get Ready was supported by three singles: "Crystal", "60 Miles an Hour", and "Someone Like You".Tracklist: "Crystal" (6:51) "60 Miles an Hour" (4:54) "Turn My Way" (5:05) "Vicious Streak" (5:40) "Primitive Notion" (5:43) "Slow Jam" (4:53) "Rock the Shack" (4:12) "Someone Like You" (5:42) "Close Range" (4:13) "Run Wild" (3:57)You've got the tropes right in your hands: | |
