More Info on the Instruments Covering Joy Division

Mike Turner of Happy Happy Birthday to Me has written into the Townhall with more information on the upcoming Instruments 7" single, which will feature covers of Joy Division songs. This is up for pre-order now at the label's website.

hey kids,
here is the scoop. there will be only 2 songs on the vinyl for quality reasons. the songs are rather long, and so we'd rather have just two songs on the actual vinyl. but when you buy the vinyl, you'll get a cdr with all 4 covers on it. And what you have all been waiting for...the track listing. Here are the four songs. Passover, Decades, New Dawn Fades, Love Will Tear Us Apart. Heather is putting the songs in the mail to be mastered tomorrow, and I'm working on the sleeve this weekend. We should have a song to put up online to sample in about 2 weeks. We have sold about a 1/4 of the singles, and lots of people are ordering 2-3 copies, so you might want to get your copy preordered real soon.
