I was a huge new wave fan as were most of my friends growing up in the early 80's. One band that eluded me was Joy Division. I had a couple friends mention that they were fans back in 83, but never listened to their music. I had always known them to be New Order(whom i never liked). Fast forward 30 yrs and with youtube i stumbled across their music and have been listening to them every night for the last 4 months. I encourage anyone that hasn't heard their music to do the same. I'm an audiophile and will listen to just about anything, but these lads were talented beyond belief. For me, the anchors were Sumner and Hook followed by Curtis and Morris. Mind you, once Curtis died and the band became New Order, their music becomes almost unlistenable to me. New dawn fades is their best song with enough strength and passion to tear you down. Anyone else like their music?

...but in a good way
) Lately been listening to Joy Division but strictly instrumental. I really like Decades played loud. Their music is simple but unbelievably good. Give it a try
