    I have an edition that matches the exact description of Release 2, but on mine, Mesh (the song that opens with a bass) comes first, followed by Cries and Whispers. For this reason, I always thought the cover was correct, and that the label was wrong, but apparently most other editions seem to have Cries and Whispers first.

      Everything you'd expect from early New Order - pulsating rhythm, rousing synths, distanced vocals, plus a sound that was somewhere in between Duran Duran and Spandau Ballet - 'Everything's Gone Green' represents a band that is literally getting over their punk roots and determined to carve their own niche in the industry. One of the most endearing elements of New Order's music during this time is the fact that they weren't entirely out of the Joy Division shadow but weren't exactly the New Order they'd become either; hence their sound met half way between organic rawness and electronic overtones. When considering the virtually inane lyrics, relentless beat and its reliance on the lengthy jams, one could just as well call 'Everything's Gone Green' as the forerunner to 'Blue Monday' that would emerge two years later.
