''Low-Life'' is the third studio album of the English rock band New Order . Released in May 1985, it showcased a more commercial side to the group's sound than heard on their previous albums. The first half of the album mainly showed the 'rock' side of the band, whereas the second half is more electronic/dance focused. The album's artwork is the only New Order release to feature photographs of the band members on its sleeve. On most issues, drummer/keyboardist Stephen Morris is on the front cover. Some re-releases, including the 1993 London Records CD, feature four photographs inside the case and a semi-transparent piece of paper with the band's name on. Owners can choose which band member is seen through the sleeve. The album was preceded by the release of the full-length version of " The Perfect Kiss " as a single (only an edited version appears on the album). A John Robie remix of " Sub-culture " was also released as a 12" single. The songs on this album formed the basis of New Order's live concert video, ''Pumped Full Of Drugs'', filmed in Tokyo shortly before the album's release. As a side note, the song "Elegia" was featured in the Academy Award -nominated short film More by Mark Osborne .
