I picked up this CD and the 1989 LP with "Getting Away with It" because I like Johnny Marr and I am a fan of New Order and Joy Division. I was actually kind of disappointed with the '89 LP - it seemed like a victim of the era. Maybe too much Pet Shop Boy sound or something but it didn't really hit the mark and Sumner's lyrics seemed kind of robotic. Twisted Tenderness is much better - I can really hear Marr's influence much better on this album and Sumner's tunes sound like they are straight off the "Get Ready" album. If you want to hear what Johnny Marr sounds like if he were a member of New Order, this would be the album.

Some side projects best remain one-shots.

"Quietly released in 2000, the third longplayer from Electronic is a better effort than the second, "Raise The Pressure." That is primarily due to the fact that Johnny Marr keeps his profile higher than Bernard Sumner, so "Twisted Tenderness" is more a guitar album than the previous two. You might be forgiven into thinking this is a Johnny Marr solo album with help from Bernard Summer, and appreciate it a bit more.



But the whole point behind the appeal to Electronic's debut album was that all the contributors perfectly balanced, and brought out the best in, each other. To this album's credit, the title track is fantastic. The remaining songs are too long and overproduced. Stick with the debut."

"Only took 5 yrs for me to discover that this gem of an album had been released...THANKS AMAZON FOR THE RECOMMENDATION!! Being a fan of NEW ORDER and the various side projects (REVENGE, THE OTHER TWO, MONACO) I relentlessly anticipated another release from Electronic but gave up after a few years. This is by far my favorite Electronic release. The much broader and heavier rock tone sets it apart from even the earlier Smiths, and New Order material. I'm looking for a BEST OF compilation next!!"
