New Order's highest charting album in the U.S. (No. 11) is also their weakest: they seem to be going through the motions much of the time. Thankfully, there are still some strong tracks here, including "Regret," "Ruined in a Day" and the anti-dance dance track "Special." Even the band thought something was missing -- they took an extended break after this LP.
