New Order
Waiting For the Siren's Call
(Warner)
One of the problems with being a band for 25 years is that you inevitably run into your musical offspring -- and the little bastards are more than happy to show you up.
Such is the plight of New Order, whose dance floor post-pop-punk now echoes from the CDs of bands like The Killers, Franz Ferdinand and Scissor Sisters (whose Ana Matronic guests on Jet Stream).
Waiting For the Siren's Call is a pleasant listen, but fans may wonder if they're listening to Republic again.
Stacked up against the kids, it's hard not to conclude the torch has been passed.
