Joy Division / New Order thread

I have read pretty much every New Order book that has been released. Have to say that the 3 Hooky ones are the most enjoyable. Have to take what he says with a pinch of salt, but they are good. Just started on Stephens New Order one.

I'm really enjoying this so far cheers.

Will move on to "substance" after this.
 
Also loving the Joy Division - Still compilation album. I believe it was introduced in the 80s to prevent the distribution of fake recordings from earlier songs and the Birmingham gig.
 
I don't know much about either of these Mancunian bands but I do know I love the songs World in Motion, Temptation and especially True Faith, so new Order I guess.

I have an online Manc mate though (who's a rag) who talks a lot about how great Joy Division are.

My tastes tend to be more stuff like Iron maiden, Queen, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Linkin Park, Eminem, Saliva, Bon Jovi, Pink Floyd, Guns N Roses, Travis, David Bowie, Crowded House etc. I love music but I only like a select number of songs from many artists, I am not a hardcore fan of any band. I would say of the above though Iron maiden are my favourite.

By the way this thread was copied on Redcafe the other night, just a heads up. I look on their entertainment forum regularly as they're far more knowledgeable about books, movies, tv shows, music, films and games than they are football.

Had a read of the red cafe thread. Have to disagree with you, they know as much about music as they do about football. One of them states Bad Lieutenant and Electronic are better than both JD and NO. No wonder they think Fernandes is better than KDB, they are utterly clueless.
 
For fans of Joy Division and New Order there's a really good podcast out at the moment called Transmissions. Maxine Peake narrates it and there's some great interviews with the band as it takes you through the journey's of both bands. Definitely worth a listen.

Hahaha maybe not music then, I just threw that in there. To be honest I never really read their music threads but their threads on other forms of entertainment are pretty good. But yeah, they're generally very clueless about football.
