Movement

Movement is the title of the debut album by British band New Order. It was recorded and released the year after the death of Joy Division frontman Ian Curtis, which led the band to change their name to New Order and recruit new meber Gillian Gilbert.

The album is a testimony to the band very much finding their way in musical style without Curtis. Guitarist Bernard Sumner takes on most of the vocal duties, although bassist Peter Hook sings lead vocals on two tracks, namely Dreams Never End and Doubts Even Here, with Gillian Gilbert also providing spoken voice on the latter. Drummer Stephen Morris continues to play both live drums and experiment with drum machines. The electronic element is generally more utilised with respect to the Joy Division albums.

None of the tracks were released as singles, with the group preferring to release non-album material as singles (eg. Everything's Gone Green, Cries & Whispers, Mesh, Procession).

Album art was designed by Factory in-house designer Peter Saville, based on a 19832 Italian Futurist exhibition poster.
