Sounds of a City: New Order - Power, Corruption and Lies
Another chance to hear Colleen Murphy exploring New Order's Power, Corruption and Lies and its relationship to Manchester.
Another chance to hear Colleen Murphy's exploring New Order's 1983 album Power, Corruption and Lies and its relationship to Manchester.
Speaking to the likes of Peter Hook, Stephen Morris and Peter Saville, we breakdown the components of an album that fused punk and dance, art and experimentation, technology and rock, to create something for a new generation of tech-savvy music-philes to get their teeth into. A Certain Ratio's Martin Moscrop and The Charlatan's Tim Burgess discuss this perfect blending, whilst 808 State's Graham Massey contemplates the fact that Manchester has more in common with New York than it does with any other British city. A story that may sound familiar, but with New Order were stepping out from the shadows of Joy Division the idea of experimentation is amplified and braver, and may not have even worked. And then there was that album cover.
First broadcast in 2013.
