The pride of Manchester has proven despite their age, they still have it.Their first album without famed bassist Peter Hook released last year with the release of “Music Complete.” A top to bottom burner that is a true return to form that is the best delivery since 2001’s “Get Ready.” Watch their latest video for the pulsating jam, “Singularity,” that includes footage taken from B-Movie, the story of Mark Reeder’s life in ’80s West-Berlin. I wouldn’t be mad if it were stock footage from a Friday night at the Hacienda. It’s good to have Bernard and the crew back.
