I once picked up a 12 inch single for next to nothing by a chap called Tony Martin. The song was called Barriers and featured the most blatant New Order rip-off you could imagine - big synths, Hook bass. The record got nowhere, of course, and isn't exactly a work of lost genius, but I have a sneaking affection for it. Also everything by The Beloved up to and including the first album, especially '100 Words'.

Interpol's 'PDA' sure has the Barney's-galloping-gtrs thing down cold.

Wasn't there a tussle between Fat Bob and New Order over "The Walk" sounding too much like "Blue Monday?" And is that why "All the Way" sounds a bit similar to "Just Like Heaven?"

THANKYOU MARK H! "I Beg Your Pardon" by Kon Kan! I've been trying to remember that name. Great song!

― Tom (Groke), Tuesday, 12 November 2002 14:24 (twenty-three years ago)

um, arcadia.

Lots of good calls there - esp the 'All the Way' response to all the Cure's copying in the couple of years before that - respec' to Paul.

S: - very much S in fact - Paris Angels "Perfume (All On You)". It's the most underrated single from the entire Mancs-r-us era, with its "Fine Time" intro, through the Barney-esque guitar to the Curtis-tastic delivery. And it has a killer female-led chorus - beat that, N.O !

Also "The Only Truth" by Paul 'genius' Haig, which admittedly features members of N.O. I believe, probably Barney, judging by the guitar outro on the long version. It also has the "Temptation" srum pattern, also favoured by ...

D: "Ahead" by Wire .. well, maybe not totally destroy, as I have always enjoyed the singer's (Colin ?) 'rw'-like 'r' sound, and it is so much a "Temptation" rip-off that it's funny. Then again, they got the payback for that when Elastica and Menswear formed a few years later, didn't they.

Boxcar's first single "Freemason" is a total New Order facsimile. and rather good too.

"Something Outside" by The Wake
"The Way I Fell For You" by Saint Etienne
"This Micro" by Sound Devise
"When Nothing's Changed" by Vitesse
"The Last Dance" by Disco Inferno

The last New Order album tried to sound like New Order but failed utterly, miserably.
