There is no losers here only winners either way

Am i allowed to say both. 2 very different bands and i love and loath songs by both.

both have truly world class songs

The way I look at it is, Joy Division influenced many bands of the early 80s, New Order influenced quite bit more than that with their involvement with the hacienda and the whole Madchester movement. I still prefer to listen to Joy Division personally though.

I didn't know he was friends with Damon Albarn, even during the Oasis "battle", which I thought was silly at the time. Also didn't know he'd done a collab with Gorillaz earlier this year, but I'd have recognised those baselines.

The Song for me that connects the two is Age of Consent, so Joy Division and yet New Order.

Always thought Ultraviolence from Power was a very Joy Division sounding song.

I was told on the Eddie Van Halen thread that I was very droll. So very droll. But I appreciate a good piss take.
