Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: This two-man Manchester supergroup--New Order's Bernard Sumner and the Smith's Johnny Marr--made one of the best debuts of the '90s with Electronic. More New Order than Smiths, the album was a blend of plangent fretwork and frenetic sequencing, with bleak lyrics intoned in Sumner's clean, boyish tenor. "Get the Message" was orthodox '80s pop, but the heartbreaking "Gangster" was an electro-rock masterpiece. The album featured engaging cameos from the Pet Shop Boys on "Getting Away with It" and "The Patience of a Saint". --Barney Hoskyns

Customer Reviews

The Best of What Electronic Had To Offer
Their first album and their best, Raise the Pressure will have you moving to the music. Most notable is Neal Tennants distinctive voice added to some of the tracks and his unmistakeable style. For those who love the Pet Shop Boys, you should not miss this CD. The songs are well written and crafted and have a unique style of their own. It's a shame that "Dissappointed" fromt he Cool World soundtrack was not added as it was the last time Tennant would sing with the band, it is, however available on a single.

Another Old Favorite
This is another CD I bought to replace an old cassette. The album is as good as I remember it being.

Always Amazing
This album will prove easily why Electronic are the best New Order side project. Monaco follows in a close second spot - but then again, that's for another review.
I have had this album for ages now, but I never have gotten tired of listening to it... the songs sound like they could have been recorded yesterday - that's how fresh and relevant they are.
Some of my favourite tracks are "Idiot Country", "Reality" (I love the beats!), "The Patience Of A Saint", "Getting Away With It", "Gangster", "Get The Message" (fantastic lyrics), "Try All You Want" and "Feel Every Beat" (makes me wish I could play the piano). Okay - I realize I have named eight out of the eleven songs here - but honestly, that's just how much this album blows my mind.
If you love great synthpop/britpop or are a fan of New Order (especially New Order a la Republic), then get this album. You won't regret it, I promise.
