UK collection of hits and groundbreaking tracks from Joy Division and spin-off band New Order including a previously unreleased New Order track, 'Hellbent'. Despite an incredibly short recording career, Joy Division remarkably have stood the test of time in terms of influential British bands. Their dark, brooding sound has inspired more artists than could be listed and their continued adoration today is testament to the forward thinking yet inward projected music and lyricism of a young band on the brink of success yet unsure of how to deal with it. With the sad passing of Ian Curtis, from the ashes rose New Order; the same core band but with a new fresh approach to their chosen career path. Loud, colorful and full of life. Total is a chronological look at the two bands most important tracks. Warner.

Waiting for the Sirens' Call is the eighth studio album by the English rock band New Order. The album was released on 28 March 2005 in the United Kingdom and 25 April 2005 in the United States, and was preceded by the single "Krafty" in February. Two additional singles from the album were released: "Jetstream", which features vocals by Ana Matronic from Scissor Sisters, and the title track of the album. The album was released at a time when the band were experiencing unprecedented recognition in the media.
Waiting for the Sirens' Call marks Phil Cunningham's recording and co-writing debut with New Order; although he had been playing live with the band since the Get Ready tour of 2001–2002. It is the first New Order album recorded without Gillian Gilbert who left the band in 2001 to look after her family. The album was recorded at Real World studios in 2003–2004, and production costs totalled £700,000. During the sessions the band also recorded seven songs intended for their next album, which was never completed as planned. These songs were shelved when Peter Hook quit the group in 2007. One song, "Hellbent", was eventually released in 2011 and all seven (plus a remix of "I Told You So") were released as the album Lost Sirens in 2013.
This album was the first and only New Order album to have a title track. This matches their current trend of now using song titles which are in the song lyrics, a practice New Order rarely did before their 2001 album Get Ready. The Japanese release includes several alternate versions of "Krafty" as bonus tracks, including one sung in Japanese. This was the first time that lead singer Bernard Sumner performed in a language other than English on record. The lyrics were translated by Masafumi Gotō. The USA release of this album includes one extra track, a remix of "Guilt Is a Useless Emotion".

New Order formed in Manchester in 1980, rising from the ashes of U.K. post-Punk icons Joy Division after lead singer Ian Curtis' death. Guitarist Bernard Sumner took on vocal duties, and with drummer Stephen Morris, bassist Peter Hook and keyboardist Gillian Gilbert, became one of the biggest British groups of their era. Pioneering the fusion of new wave, alt-rock, Electronica, Synth-Pop and Club music, their unique sound was as thought-provoking and soulful as it was Dancefloor-ready. Featuring 17 tracks spanning 1981-1993, this single disc survey of their influential work features signature hits including 'Bizarre Love Triangle,' 'World In Motion,' 'Regret,' 'True Faith,' and their breakthrough smash 'Blue Monday'.

Get Ready is the seventh studio album by English musical group New Order. Released in August 2001 this was the group's first album in eight years, following 1993's Republic.
Peter Hook said of the album's title, "The title of the album is 'Get Ready' so it could mean anything or nothing. I thought it was just nice, New Order, 'Get Ready', 'cos we are, we're getting ready for the next phase of our musical lives both physically and mentally so it's quite a simple thing but it's very pertinent."
The album was dedicated to Rob Gretton, the manager of Joy Division and New Order, who died in 1999.
Keith Strickland, guitarist for the New Wave act The B-52's stated the sounds of "Get Ready" inspired him to make the sound for the B-52's 2008 album Funplex. The band The Killers took their name from the band playing in the "Crystal" video.
"Someone Like You" appears in the independent film Haggard: The Movie.
The album features a cover art directed by Peter Saville and designed by Howard Wakefield who have also designed covers for New Order and Joy Division albums. The cover model is German actress Nicolette Krebitz.
In 2009, "Slow Jam" was used in a Visa advertising campaign.
