Just curious, to the real affreciandos of 80s synth wave, these two bands play a very spessial place. Two very iconic acts with songs that makes the dark dancefloor pulse with a wierd yet calming energy.

Blue Monday v Fade To Grey
I went for the latter although beyond those songs I can't honestly say I have any appreciation for either.

Oh, it has to be New Order. Visage were a flash in the pan art experiment, so much "of their time" that they became almost immediately irrelevant. New Order however have lasting legacy that lives on to this day. Edited by Hugh Manatee - September 18 2023 at 23:10 |

Based on my new favourite Rockontours with Garry Kemp and Guy Prat, they hail Steve Strange to a high esteeme but also New Order

'Fade To Grey' is superb. I always liked 'Night Train' and 'The Damned Don't Cry' as well.
Superb singles. New Order, the better band by far though!
