Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A must have.......2006-05-06

As a long time fan of the Smiths and New Order and of course Electronic, in my opinion this is the best Marr and Sumner's Electronic album to date. This album sounds more rockish than the previous work. Excellent guitar work in songs like Flicker, Late at Night, Haze and Vivid and great Techno in Twisted Tenderness. Also you don't want to miss the great song (should have been an A-Side!) Warning Sign.

4 out of 5 stars Deluxe okay but not great........2003-08-02

Unless you get a good deal the deluxe version isn't worth getting as the only track that I listen to all the way through is Prodigal Son (Star In Your Mind mix) even though, ironically, it is the longest track. I consider the first three tracks on Disk 2 to be actually part of the end of Disk 1.
The best songs by far are the title track, Prodigal Son, Haze, Vivid, Make It Happen, King for a Day, and the first couple of minutes of Like No Other. I tend to skip over the remaining tracks.

5 out of 5 stars Great collaboration where the New Order influence dominates.......2003-07-16

Electronic's latest album is full of guitar courtesy of the Smith's Johnny Marr, and great lyrics, songs, and the New Order sound courtesy of Bernard Sumner. Does this collaboration work?.... Totally!

I purchased this cd prior to New Order's latest album "Get Ready". I have to say that musically and lyrically that I feel "Get Ready" is the better album. However, "Twisted Tenderness" is very strong.

Most of the songs have guitar, synth, and big beats. I feel that Bernard Sumner probably wrote not only the lyrics, but the music also. The songs are very cohesive and sound like they were made by a seasoned musician who has mastered the art of making danceable rock songs.

I have not heard a lot of New Order's older albums, but I would catorigize this album as a mix between "Republic's" dance songs and "Get Ready's" more guitar oriented songs. The mix works good.

Anyway I highly recommend this album. The disk 2 offers I think two new songs and about 6 remixes of disk 1. So I think just buying "Twisted Tenderness" without the deluxe part would be good, unless you like remixes or as in my case they only had the Deluxe cd in stock.

5 out of 5 stars Best of its genre.......2002-05-17

A wonderful album. The obsessively tidy Sumner did a fantastic job making this album work cohesively and smoothly...yet with a rough edge. I am a New Order/Electronic fan to the hilt and this is one of the best albums of that genre. I stick with disc one for the most part.
