Music Complete, released in 2015 through Mute Records, is the tenth studio album by English Alternative Dance band New Order. The album stands as a major turning point for the band: after bassist and co-founder Peter Hook left in 2007 due to Creative Differences with vocalist Bernard Sumner, New Order had functionally broken up, though the other members insisted that they were simply on hiatus before Sumner confirmed in 2009 that they'd split.However, two years later, New Order announced that they had reformed, with Gillian Gilbert returning to the band (having retired after the release of Get Ready in 2001 to raise her and drummer/husband Stephen Morris' kids) and Tom Chapman being appointed as the band's new bassist. However, it took a few years to start putting together new material, with 2013's Lost Sirens simply being an archival release of an album that'd been recorded alongside Waiting for the Sirens' Call but shelved following Hook's exit. Thus, Music Complete represents the band's first album of newly-written and recorded songs in ten years.With the rock-oriented Hook no longer being in the band, the material on Music Complete shifts firmly back into the electronic sound that had defined New Order's sound throughout the 1980s, following the guitar-driven Alternative Rock of Get Ready, Waiting for the Sirens' Call, and Lost Sirens. That said, while rock elements still appear on the album, the overall sound leans even further into the band's electronic dance elements than ever before, especially in its first half, incorporating elements of the contemporary disco revival and the other new forms of dance music that emerged in the 2010s (to the point where Elly Jackson of La Roux appears as a co-vocalist on three tracks). Thus, the album both modernizes and expands upon New Order's Signature Style for a new era.Music Complete was supported by four singles: "Restless", "Tutti Frutti", "Singularity", and "People on the High Line". An outtake from the sessions, "Be a Rebel", would also be released as a non-album single (the band's first since 1997) in 2020.Tracklist: "Restless" (5:28) "Singularity" (5:37) "Plastic" (6:55) "Tutti Frutti" (6:22) "People on the High Line" (5:41) "Stray Dog" (6:17) "Academic" (5:54) "Nothing but a Fool" (7:43) "Unlearn This Hatred" (4:19) "The Game" (5:06) "Superheated" (5:04)I'm a shadow of a man without your tropes:
