His voice always matched the tone of the music. On Atmosphere he sang even more darker than this. Usually matching tone-wise what Peter Hook played on bass. On their more energetic songs you heard more of his lighter voice.

Lyrics When routine bites hard And ambitions are low And resentment rides high But emotions won't grow And we're changing our ways Taking different roads Love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Why is the bedroom so cold? Turned away on your side Is my timing that flawed? Our respect run so dry? Yet there's still this appeal That we've kept through our lives But love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Do you cry out in your sleep? All my failings exposed Gets a taste in my mouth As desperation takes hold And it's something so good Just can't function no more? Love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear up apart again

Ian Curtis the lead singer had various medical issues and sadly took his own life just before the band went on an American tour. As someone else said they became New Order - listen to Blue Monday. It's not your headphones it's late 70's early 80's dark black Britain with many unemployed, no future and no way out. New Order after Joy Division changed that with 24 hour party people-electro pop and dance music. Oh and it's pronounced E-an.

Weirdly almost everyone has heard the drummer out of Joy Division a heap of times, back in the early days before drum machines were widely used someone had to lay down those original beats and Stephen actually spent a lot of arduous time recording a whole heap of individual sounds for the machine. Once someone had done it nobody could be bothered doing it again so for years he would get these cheques for the royalties when someone used the drum machine in songs.

The really interesting part about the era, and this song in particular, is you get to watch music evolution. The 80s were when Punk really went mainstream, competing against Ska and Mod and Metal, when Synth Pop was truly born, and in this song in particular, you get to experience the crossover of synth and punk. For that alone, this song is a genuine musical landmark, as people rarely see any connection between the two genres until hearing this track.

Joy Division is an acquired taste. Once you listen to them more, the more you'll understand them. It's like the end of innocence. You'd probably like New Order. New Order was the remaining members of Joy Division after Ian Curtis died. There's a great movie about him it's called "Control" . I suggest you watch it. You'll understand Ian and his struggles with epilepsy along with becoming famous which caused family problems and the deep depression and guilt he went through. I know it sounds like a glib movie but I assure you it's fantastic. I'll put a link to the trailer in this post. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmKYXpt_fqZ2rLs

The singer Ian Curtis suffered from really bad epilepsy which really effected his confidence and mental state, he often suffered from really bad stage fright and sadly hung himself with a washing line at just 23 years of age. The band chose to end and then became New Order. Moby has also gad a few hits with Joy Division songs like New Dawn Fades which was used on the movie Heat.

I get what you are saying but in order to appreciate Joy Division, you sort of have to know the work of New Order which resulted from it. New Order is the more polished version of this but devoid of some of the lyrical complexity and character. But if you listen to and appreciate New Order (which were quite successful) and understand that Joy Division is the prototype for that band you realize that this singer's voice over what the music became could have been magical. And with the live stage presence of the deceased lead signer, they might have been legendary. Also, lots of this older music is a bit muddled due to the equipment used back then and there are remastered versions of what you were watching that play a little better. Basically this is early synthesizer driven music and had a big influence on lots of other music to this day. Sort of switches the tradition of guitars as lead to the rhythm (bass and synth) taking the lead.

Many songs of that time are depressive lyrics disguised in joyful and rich music. Influenced worldwide music forever, great classics and master bands, which keep influences generations.

Ian Curtis was a phenomenal artist who wasn't quite comfortable in his own skin, and that showed through in his live performances. Add in his severe epilepsy, which sometimes flared during those performances, and you had an intensity and a stage presence that was completely unique. Few people gave more of themselves while performing than Curtis. Please give "Transmission" or "She's Lost Control" a try in one of your future videos, especially a live version. You'll be amazed by what you see, I can promise you that.

Listen to Disorder, the first track of the album. Fun fact time of why I relate to Ian Curtis: Disorder has a line that goes something like, "Light's are flashing, cars are crashing. It's getting frequent now." As somebody who suffers from epilepsy I can relate to Ian. One second I was driving down the freeway doing about when I apparently had a Grand Mal seizure and drove straight into a concrete divider. I woke up in the hospital without a scratch on me and no clue what had happened. My point is, the stress of dealing with a seizure inducing condition is tough enough to deal with. I can't imagine what Ian, somebody who struggled terribly with Anxiety, let alone epilepsy was going through in those final days. Side Note I was driving a newish german sedan when the Grand Mal happened (Safe reliable car). Normally I set my cruise control between 78-85 MPH when driving on that particular part of the freeway. The barrier split my car in half down the middle like a samurai sword, and aside from a concussion, I didn't have a scratch on me. God exists in one form or another. I should not be alive.
