In addition to collecting the band's 12" A-sides and B-sides, ''Substance'' also includes two new songs: "True Faith" and "1963", recorded specifically for this album. The songs were released together as a 7" and 12" single earlier in 1987 to promote the album, with "True Faith" as the A-side and "1963" as the B-side. Because of this, the songs exist in a weird state of being both non-album singles (as they were never included on an actual studio album) and an album single (as they were written for and released to promote ''Substance''). The single reached no. 4 on the British pop charts and proved to be their BreakthroughHit in the U.S., reaching the Top 40 for the first time as the song's SurrealMusicVideo became an Creator/{{MTV}} hit.

''Substance'' is a compilation album by Music/NewOrder, released in 1987. Released as a stopgap during the interim between 1986's ''Music/{{Brotherhood}}'' and 1989's ''Music/{{Technique}}'', the album compiles every 12" single released by New Order from their formation up until around the first half of 1987 ([[MyFriendsAndZoidberg plus "Procession" and "Murder"]], which are included on CD and cassette copies despite having only ever seen release as 7" singles). The album is also the band's first to not be focused primarily on the LP format. Not only do the CD and cassette releases manage to squeeze all of the band's 12" singles onto one disc/tape, something that required two records for the LP release, but they also add in a second disc/tape devoted to the B-sides of the included singles and then some, with a few more B-sides present on cassette than on CD. Due to the limited capacity of physical media back in the day, a good amount of tracks were edited down or outright re-recorded to fit a shorter length.

''Substance'' is a compilation album by Music/NewOrder, released in 1987. Released as a stopgap during the interim between 1986's ''Music/{{Brotherhood}}'' and 1989's ''Technique'', the album compiles every 12" single released by New Order from their formation up until around the first half of 1987 ([[MyFriendsAndZoidberg plus "Procession" and "Temptation"]], which are included on CD and cassette copies despite having only ever seen release as 7" singles). The album is also the band's first to not be focused primarily on the LP format; CD and cassette copies include a second unit focused on providing the B-sides of the included singles, with a few more B-sides present on cassette than on CD. Due to the limited capacity of physical media back in the day, a good amount of tracks were edited down or outright re-recorded to fit a shorter length. ''Substance'' is also notable for being one of only a small amount of albums officially released on Digital Audio Tape (DAT) during the format's limited commercial lifespan.
''Substance'' stands as a historically important entry in New Order's backlog. Because it contains nearly all of the band's singles between 1981 and 1987, it stands as an immediate presentation of the band's artistic evolution from a PostPunk band in the shadow of Music/JoyDivision to '''the''' [[TropeMaker founders]] and [[TropeCodifier codifiers]] of the AlternativeDance genre.

!!"It was January 1963, when Johnny came home with a trope for me":
* AntiLoveSong: Many of the songs qualify, particularly "Blue Monday" and "Bizarre Love Triangle".
* DistinctDoubleAlbum: In different forms on different formats.
** On the LP version, which only contains the A-sides, disc one chronicles the band's non-album singles from 1981 to 1983, while disc one chronicles the singles from 1985 to 1987.
** On cassette, sides one and three chronicles the band's A-sides and B-sides from 1981 to 1984, while sides two and four chronicle the band's A-sides and B-sides from 1985 to 1987.
** On CD, DAT, and cassette, unit one chronicles A-sides, while unit two primarily chronicles B-sides. The only exceptions to this rule are "Procession" and "Murder", which are included on the B-side portion of the album despite having originally been released as A-sides; "Murder" though is properly placed among the A-sides on cassette copies.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Present on the A-sides and B-sides that predate "Temptation" and "Hurt". These songs were written prior to the band's GenreShift to AlternativeDance, during a time when they were simply hoping to continue what they had started as Music/JoyDivision, only this time without [[AuthorExistenceFailure the late]] Ian Curtis.
* EpicRocking: And ''how''. Of the 29 tracks included on ''Substance'', all but 8 of them exceed the 5-minute mark.
* GreatestHitsAlbum: To an extent. While many of the band's best-known singles are included on ''Substance'', the album does not aim to be a greatest hits album and is simply meant as a retrospective of the band's career via their single releases.
* LastNoteNightmare: "The Perfect Kiss" ends with a synthesized bang on LP and cassette, implied to be the narrator's friend [[DrivenToSuicide shooting himself dead.]]
* LyricalDissonance: A hallmark of New Order; "The Perfect Kiss", "Bizarre Love Triangle", "True Faith", "Procession", and "1963" are all unusually upbeat musically for their morbid subject matter, with producer Stephen Hague referring to "1963" in particular as "the only song about domestic violence that you can dance to."
* PopStarComposer: "Shellshock" was originally written for the film ''Film/PrettyInPink''.
* ProtestSong: "State of the Nation" is a vague one, attacking "deprivation" in the United Kingdom.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: "The Perfect Kiss" was based on an incident while, during a stay in America, a man randomly showed the members of New Order the gun collection hidden beneath his mattress, before heading out for a night on the town.
* ReCut:
** A significant number of songs had to receive significant overhauls to compensate for storage limitations of physical media back in 1987.
*** "Temptation" and "Confusion" are both re-recorded, running significantly shorter than the original 12" releases.
*** "Sub-Culture", "Shellshock", and "Hurt" are all significantly edited down from their original running lengths, with "The Perfect Kiss" being an additional victim on CD copies.
** "Sub-Culture" is a different example of this trope, in comparison with the version included on ''[[Music/LowLife Low-Life]]''. The song received a remix by American record producer John Robie for its 12" release, incorporating soul singer backing vocals and more club-oriented rhythms; ironically, the album version ended up being considered more club-friendly.
* SiameseTwinSongs: "Blue Monday" and "The Beach". They are the same track, but "The Beach" alternates sounds and voices throughout the song. Not surprisingly, they were originally released as an A-side and B-side back in 1983.
* StepUpToTheMicrophone: Gillian Gilbert has backing vocals on "Procession" and "Confusion".
