    Yucky production and some truly dreadful lyrics. Sounds more like some sort of amalgam of the various mediocre solo projects rather than a true New Order album. Not even the actually quite good 60mph can save it. This band have seen better days.

    Even for fans not needing much convincing, Get Ready is a "grower," an album whose focus on sublime songcraft and introverted delivery reveals its secrets slowly and after many listens.

    The best tracks--"Crystal" and "Turn My Way"--sound like they were recorded in 1987.

    From a new band, Get Ready would seem like an accomplished if uneven effort.
