What releases are you looking forward to in 2019?

I'll kick things off with this, out on 5th April.

It's a "definitive" edition of New Order's debut album Movement, which originally came out in late 1981, to decidedly mixed reviews. However it's got better with age, and is a fascinating document of a band trying to find their way.

Open up the Peter Saville-designed box (below) and you'll find the original album on vinyl and CD (not sure if it's a new master); but the real meat for fans comes in the shape of a CD of extras and a DVD.

The CD contains the following:

1. Dreams Never End (Western Works Demo)
2. Homage (Western Works Demo)
3. Ceremony (Western Works Demo)
4. Truth (Western Works Demo)
5. Are You Ready For This? (Western Works Demo)
6. The Him (Cargo Demo)
7. Senses (Cargo Demo)
8. Truth (Cargo Demo)
9. Dreams Never End (Cargo Demo)
10. Mesh (Cargo Demo)
11. ICB (Cargo Demo)
12. Procession (Cargo Demo)
13. Cries And Whispers (Cargo Demo)
14. Doubts Even Here (Instrumental) (Cargo Demo)
15. Ceremony (1st Mix – Ceremony Sessions)
16. Temptation (Alternative 7”)
17. Procession (Rehearsal Recording)
18. Chosen Time (Rehearsal Recording)

The DVD contains:

At the moment, at over £100, it's grossly overpriced, but I'm hoping the cost comes down a bit.
