Low-life

Brand new sealed 180 gram album with free digital download voucher. Made in the USA.

Low-Life is the third studio album by English rock band New Order. Released in May 1985 by Factory Records, Low-Life is considered to be among New Order's strongest work, displaying the moment in which the band completed its transformation from post-punk hold-overs to dance rock. The album shows New Order's increased incorporation of synthesizers and samplers, while still preserving the rock aspects of their earlier work. The original Factory release (Japan and UK) CD versions of this album are mastered with pre-emphasis.

The songs on this album formed the basis of New Order's live concert video, Pumped Full of Drugs, filmed in Tokyo shortly before the album's release. The track This Time of Night was originally titled "Pumped Full of Drugs".

The music video for "The Perfect Kiss" was directed by Jonathan Demme. The song "Elegia" was featured in the Academy Award-nominated short film More by Mark Osborne, and was also used in the final trailer for the video game Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
