A number of bands have decided to pay tribute to New Order by recording tribute albums. A tribute album is a collection of covers from either one, or several artists, of music originally by another artist. There are several New Order tribute albums on the market.
Released in 2000 by Si Records. Track #8 is mislabeled as Mesh on the CD release, probably to mimic the same mistake on the New Order compilation Substance.
Released in 2001 by Cleopatra Records. Note that track #3 is identical to Martin N's Confusion from Blue Order; the name of the artist simply changed over the years. Same case with track #5 by DJ Buzz; the track Young Offender is simply an edit of the Martin O. track on Blue Order. Another interesting fact, DJ Pebbles' rendition of Blue Monday is actually a cover of the Hardfloor Remix of New Order's Blue Monday.
The String Quartet Tribute To New Order & Joy Division
A single band tribute to both New Order, and the band it came from, Joy Division, released in 2003 by Vitamin Records. Songs #1 to #4 are Joy Division songs, and #10 is an original composition.
Released by Retroforward Records. This tribute album was composed of covers by various members of the unofficial New Order website, www.neworderonline.com in 2004. Track #5, #8 & #13 are Joy Division tracks. Track #7 is an Electronic track (Electronic is a side-project band that New Order's lead singer Bernard Sumner had going on after 1993). Love Vigilantes by Known Pleasures is a hidden track; after Almanso's Angel Dust finishes, there is about seven minutes of silence until Known Pleasures' track starts.

CommunityEP: A NewOrderOnline Tribute
Released in 2004 by Retroforward Records. This EP contained some tracks the producers feel should have made the CD, and a collaboration on the song Crystal by Almanso and the lead singer from The Minus One, called Nemesis (now they call themselves Glasnost). Track #6 is actually by Known Pleasures (who did Love Vigilantes on the preceding album), only again, there was a name-change in between.
An enhanced tribute CD released in late 2006 by Retroforward Records as a follow-up to Community: A NewOrderOnline Tribute. There also included is a video for The Village by David Potts. Tracks #11 and #12 are Joy Division tracks. Sunrise Before Dawn is Alight (featured on Revolving World) lead singer Tracey DiLascio's solo project. Flash background music provided by Razed In A New Division Of Agony (Logan Edwards).
A collection of New Order covers by various independent acts from North America and Europe, compiled into a Double CD Digi-pack and two additional albums: One of songs that could not fit onto the physical package and another composed completely of "Ceremony" covers.
