Joy Division - Digital, New Dawn Fades, Colony, Autosuggestion (live)

A short career, but not one duff song. Might be strange to others but I find their music uplifting and inspired. It still sounds like nothing else ever recorded

[@gpaul2726]

Totally agree. Always sounds fresh and alive and new somehow

[@anapaulacarneiro4175]

Digital is so fresh that sounds a 2010 . Incredible they got this effect on 70's

[@Nominay]

Is it okay if I love them but not every single song? For example, from Unknown Pleasures "Candidate" and "I Remember Nothing" are throwaway tracks to me.

"Directionless so plain to see A loaded gun won't set you free So you say". Seeing Ian Curtis and Joy Division perform New Dawn Fades live may be the greatest moment ever in the history of rock.

[@tonywethereld7429]

Hmm...perhaps a bit optimistic there Jim. There have been MANY great moments in the history of rock, quite a few of them involving bands of greater 'stature' as one might say. The live rendition of Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple being just one example in my opinion. I really like Joy Division and in particular New Dawn Fades but the greatest moment...? Not in my humble opinion.

[@jimhoover4815]

All art is subjective. Everybody has their own greatest moment with everything. It is quite amusing to see the adjective "optimistic" used in the same paragraph of a discussion of Joy Division.

[@sookmajoaby]

Man, they were going to be fuckin big. One of the most heartbreaking tragedies in rock. Who knows what could have been. They were already on fire and they were just getting started. The music was so unique, catchy, and tight. New Order is fine and all but this would have been something extraordinary. Damn shame

[@tylerskiss]

I don’t know- New Order is extremely important to the history of music and were responsible for what is pretty universally considered to be the greatest 12” ever produced. And as much as I love JD, and it’s fun to imagine what could have been, I don’t believe they would have outlasted the Bunnymen or The Cure.

[@deenibeeniable]

So powerful in this vid...He's become himself. The lyrics of Digital remind me of part of the poem "Elm" by Sylvia Plath: "I am terrified by this dark thing/That sleeps in me;/All day I feel its soft, feathery turnings, its malignity..."

[@kipponi]

Dead lives in all of us. It describes it in poet Form. I like it got to check it.

[@darylcumming7119]

Depression?

[@deenibeeniable]

@@darylcumming7119 Definitely, & I'd wager in no small part due to the meds he had to take for the epilepsy. I know because I had to take them as a kid. They make you suicidally depressed & amplify any bad situation you are already experiencing. I took myself off them. Risky but I was convinced if I didn't I'd off myself.

[@tylerskiss]

Most medications can have adverse effects when taken by children. Putting children on Prozac back in the day probably led to more deaths than letting the brain develop naturally. Beyond that there’s also the controversy that Ian faked his epilepsy, in which case he was taking medication he didn’t actually need. I often wonder on many of these people like Chris Cornell or Michael Hutchence- had they just gotten through 24hrs, woukd they have chosen differently? I remember trying a drug one night and the following morning I was lower than dirt- like really wanted to top myself badly, but after a day passed and my brain found equilibrium, I was fine.

[@don5anjos]

This was a band that deserved a quality video recording even more thinking about nowadays in which image and sound are important, sad that there was no time. RIP IAN 😢

[@caelumblanco7004]

Unfortunately, we probably would have seen some if the North American Tour ended up happening. Wasn't meant to be.

It's a shame they dim the light every time Ian goes full throttle...

[@katevielle4263]

Per Normann That was actually for Ian. Too much lights for him could've triggered a seizure.

[@grahamhill8929]

Kate Vielle makes it more incredible for me though

[@FireMinstrel]

Having them flash the lights when he sings "DAY IN, DAY OUT, DAY IN, DAY OUT" was pretty reckless of them, to be honest. Ian and his family were fortunate that his seizures were never captured on film(or if they were, that the person filming had the decency to discard the footage), but that was a close call right there considering how bad his seizures were by 1980.

[@kwd-kwd]

@@FireMinstrel actually what that is, they turned the spotlight off Ian because he wasn't right up on the mic when he danced, the reason it blacks out is Super 8 cameras usually had automatic light meters, and when the front light goes off, only the lights above Steve's drums are providing light and when you back light a subject with a camera that has an automatic light meter, it blacks out everything in the foreground because the automatic light meter in the camera cannot adjust the exposure properly. Professional photographers always have separate light meters with them that can be manually adjusted for compensating in unusual lighting situations. Also the motion looks "floaty" on Autosuggestion originally, was the slowed the camera down to 18FPS to try to fit the whole song on one reel of film. the standard film cart was 50FT (15.24 meters for people outside the U..S.A) the other songs were filmed at 24FPS. the did make 200FT film carts towards the end of the format when video started to take over, but they were rarely used and the carts were prone to jamming, etc......sorry just a former film nerd supplying nerd facts.........

They really rocked live! Preferable, I always think, to the tranced versions on Unknown Pleasures. A shame the songs here got cropped when the sound is so good.

I cannot remaster ut even I have this bootleg also. Actually two different versions. Actually softer original and moch softer sound should be included here too but this is far more better I have. Because hiss and buzz...but I'll put it here anyway. There's akready a clip... and that's NDF. It caused me a goosebumps at the beginning. And I have to use a public digitalization-workkplace...
