Joy Division

[poolio]

anyone like Joy Division. If you've ever heard of new order, joy division was the preceding group before Ian Curtis' suicide. I can't believe how great this band is. Unknown Pleasures and Closer defined post-punk. If you like interpol's first album, turn on the bright lights, you might find this interesting.

always dug joy division.

[poolio]

new order is great too. It's a shame Ian Curtis had such a troubled life. Contextually, there really isn't anything quite the same during this era. I would have to say Ian Curtis's epileptic fits trump thom yorke's

"if you like interpol, you might like joy division"

lol... sorry

[poolio]

um, actually interpol has a strong joy division influence, sorry. Listen to the way Banks' sings. He's totally copying Ian Curtis. I'm not comparing quality by any means.

[Element]

turn on the bright lights is as good as any joy division album. better, imo


/controversy?

dude i was a hipster before i even knew what a hipster was or that they existed, except i don't wear ridiculous outfits and "accessories" like someone i know

i'm p annoyed that being awesome like me got popular though.

[poolio]

although the last interpol album kind of sucked a little more than the last one. Our love to admire had some great moments though.

is this thread from 2003 i'm confused

always been a fan on New Order.
But I also count the Smiths as my #1 group from the 80's

[poolio]

I don't like solo Morrissey.

[Smoke]

I don't like solo Morrissey.

his earlier solo work I enjoy. The stuff in the last 10 years... MEH!

[fatlip]

still humored that i get called the hipster

at least i knew the 80s fucking sucked ass

(with the exceptions of bad brains, dead kennedys, gorilla biscuits, opiv, and nofx)

[poolio]

There's plenty to love from the 80s. The Cocteau Twins instantly come to mind. Robin Guthrie is still making timeless guitar music.

the only classic band from the 80s in my eyes is xtc
