New Order- Power, Corruption And Lies Album Cover

"Power, Corruption & Lies" is the title of the second studio album by English rock band New Order, released in May 1983. Building upon the synth-pop sound of their debut album "Movement" (1981), this album further established New Order as pioneers of electronic and dance music.

The album features a blend of post-punk, synth-pop, and dance-rock elements, characterized by pulsating synthesizers, catchy melodies, and Peter Hook's distinctive basslines. Lyrically, the album explores themes of alienation, relationships, and societal disillusionment.

One of the standout tracks from "Power, Corruption & Lies" is "Blue Monday," which became New Order's signature song and one of the best-selling 12-inch singles of all time. Its innovative use of electronic instrumentation and groundbreaking production techniques solidified its status as an iconic dance anthem.

Other notable tracks from the album include "Age of Consent," "Your Silent Face," and "The Village." "Power, Corruption & Lies" received critical acclaim upon its release and has since been recognized as one of the greatest albums of the 1980s, influencing countless artists across genres.

The album's cover art, designed by Peter Saville, features a color-based code rather than traditional text, further emphasizing New Order's departure from conventional norms and their embrace of artistic experimentation.
