Recorded & Filmed live on 9th November 2018 (their only UK show of 2018), ‘education entertainment recreation’ is a brand new live album from London’s Alexandra Palace.

Sonically and visually spectacular, spanning 2 hours 20 minutes, the show joyously mixed New Order classics, their latest acclaimed album ‘Music Complete’ and Joy Division’s finest.

Opening with ‘Singularity’ from ‘Music Complete’, they eased back in time to 1993’s ‘Regret’, to ‘Love Vigilantes’ from 1985’s ‘Low-Life’ to ‘Ultraviolence from 1983 debut ‘Power, Corruption and Lies’. 

Later, their power over the dance floor was proven by sublime performances in the manner of the celebrated extended 12 inch remixes they are synonymous with - on ‘True Faith’, ‘Blue Monday’ and ‘Temptation’ before a four song Joy Division mini set to end

The Blu-Ray features an additional bonus track of ‘Tutti Fruitti’ from the group’s latest album, Music Complete.

The Times *****

“the pristine power of the band….filled the sometimes unforgiving space of Alexandra Palace quite magnificently”

Clash

“a celebration of innovation, fabulous tunes and a career that has mined gold from tragedy”

Brian ★★★★★

The BluRay transfer of the 2018 Alexandra Palace show looks genuinely sharp, and having both the 2CD and the video in one set means I can play it in the car and watch it at home. Only UK gig of that year, so it feels like a proper document of the night.

Sebastian ★★★★★

Bought this mainly for the Blu-ray and ended up playing the CDs in the car all week. The Alexandra Palace crowd noise sits really well in the mix without burying the band, and it genuinely feels like you're in the room.

Penelope H. ★★★★☆

The Alexandra Palace crowd noise on the 2CD really comes through between tracks, which makes it feel like you're actually there. Only gripe is that the Blu-ray case came with a small crack on the spine, but the discs play fine.
