Further proof of New Order’s almost unique ability to seamlessly segue electronic music into pop and vice versa

Compared to that album's half-hearted songwriting and rote sound, Lost Sirens positively shines -- leading to the customary questions of why this material didn't replace several, if not many, songs on the original Sirens' Call

Sumner's six-string chime and plangently defiant vocals make this accidental swan song feel industrial-grade wistful

At the end of the day, Lost Sirens is what it is – a series of offcuts. But still, it is a New Order album; and as such, maintains a degree of quality

Lost Sirens serves as proof that, “bad time” or not, they really need to give it another shot

As an album, Lost Sirens isn't at all an embarrassment: it's a document of a band whose range and reach, rather than power, are what has been diminished

It still sounds like New Order, a band that put out some incredible records in the last 30 years, but that stopped growing and changing in half that time. Treading water keeps you afloat, sure, but it rarely gets you anywhere interesting

The AU Review
These ‘lost’ tracks were locked away for almost a decade, and were strangely revived at a time when the band isn’t at full force
