Joy Division / New Order thread

[Out on blue 6]

So many classics, but for me has to be this one, just so hauntingly beautiful...

Their tribute to Ian Curtis. A beautiful piece of work.

Love hooky , Bernard is a piece of Shit way he treated him

Why? Hooky left and then said the band had split up to the media, which was not the case.

Unfortunately I've got "Video Unavailable" here in the US of A -- which tune/record?

One of the last things I did before COVID was head down/out to Miami for one of their residency shows in January, combining it with a business trip. I went by myself which is always a little sad but what a blast it was. I don't care that they're older; I miss Hooky but the tunes are so good that him not being there isn't any kind of issue for me. I've been to a half dozen shows or so over the years and am longing for them, some day, to play Thieves Like Us which is my all-time favo(u)rite in an ocean of fantastic tunes. They'll always be my #1 band. I'll be buried with a City scarf and a either PCL CD or my TLU vinyl 12-inch.

I must have listened to Substance and Technique several thousand times as a teenager. Funny how the lyrics rarely made any sense at all until I was much much older. Loads I'd misheard.

Sorry to hear about Barney. I still have a huge amount of time for the first Electronic album. The NME described it as Kraftwerk on a day trip to Joe Bloggs, which was about right, but it's also got some awesome songwriting by Barney and Johnny.

Amongst other deserved plaudits, I can report this classic tune was deemed good enough to make the playlist at my local Morrisons:

Same here with substance and technique.

I had substance on vinyl with the red and blue sleeves, 1963 and true faith i played 24/7.

Bernard might be a shit house, I would not know as I have never met him. He is definitely the talented one though.

Hooky is a loon.
