They're on a very very short list of bands from this time that pretty much codified what rock would sound like for the next thirty years. I think Joy Division and David Bowie were the two most important pop artists to come after the Beatles. All alternative rock bands from the 80s and 90s draw from them in some way.

@zephyra this is true, the first album didn't have a lead singer, Hook and I think even Morris took turns singing lead. As for "Movement" not being good - it does have its moments. "The Him" was ace.

It wasn't until hearing this live version that I really understood the bands' issues with Martin Hannett's production. On the one hand, Hannett gave them a sound unlike any other punk band, guaranteeing that they stood out from all the many others. On the other, it really sapped a lot of the power out of the songs. His production fit the subject matter perfectly, but I still really wish their was more power in the recordings.

Steve Hastings but Joy Division and New Order are the same band. New Order only started after Joy Division singer Ian Curtis committed suicide, and they changed their name to New Order and added keyboardist Gillian Gilbert. So it’s not possible for New Order to open for Joy Division. But I enjoyed seeing those bands too, except for Joy Division since I was in the USA and they didn’t quite make it over here. 😢

I knew who this band was in 1978. And this was while living in Texas. A high school friend kept close tabs on music - mostly punk - had the music magazine imports, and would search out the record LPs. Unknown Pleasures got played a lot. Everyone else outside our clique were pooching their lips and rocking their heads back and forth to acts like Bad Company, Foreigner, and Kiss - plus all the other high rotation acts on the radio. It, plus a lot of other bands we were into like The Damned, The Ramones, Iggy, Talking Heads, and David Bowie (just to name a few) was our refuge from all the crap music on the radio. Joy Division made some really amazing music in their too short run and I'm glad they did.

Soul Eruption There was something growing Through the pub smoke far away, deep underground in synaptic distress. There was something growing where the young men met the future where notions suicidally shake where private visions confess. Had to play it out, to the end Had to play it out, to the end Had to play it out, to the end. Something grew and erupted As new centuries beckoned On new waves and possible ends A life slips away, co-opted. Something grew and erupted writhed and seethed with ancient power Like a man who stands and faces it all with steadied hands. Where sings the living voice, dead? Where sings the living voice, now dead? Is there room in heaven for the angels of hopeless dread? He's lost control again - Isolation has its charms. He remembers nothing. He forgot what she said. Had to play it out, to the end Had to play it out, to the end Had to play it out, to the end. - Poem I wrote for Ian, comparing his death with the eruption of Mt. St. Helens, which occurred the same day. Cheers to all you fuckin' awesome JD fans.

transmission was also played on TV to be fair, and i imagine that the movie was trying to portray several events in that scene, of course quoting Tony Wilsons intro to this performance but i think it was trying to include a reference to the first time Joy Division played Transmission for the first time I'm front of an audience during a sound check (peter hooke stated in his book about how it was the first time they as a band felt like they had really connected with an audience) so i believe thats what the movie was trying to refer to all at once, and of course due to time constraints they couldn't separate the performances. a shame though, Shadowplay will always be my favourite Joy Division song. i must note that its been a while since ive seen control.

I was in high school, when I took out this album (in cassette! lol). I was originally looking for New Order; someone had stolen all of the New Order albums and this "weird" band Joy Division came up. I never realized how lucky I was to discover them until I was much older. I love Ian Curtis.

I feel like their live sound was a combination of the Stooges and Black Sabbath. Truly nothing like it.

I completely agree, always thought of Joy Division as a successor to Sabbath in a certain vein

Cwl to see Tony Wilson introducing them here too. Saw him loads on Granada tv in the 70's and he seemed like just another presenter, but fair play, that guy was passionate about music and put his money where his mouth was, even though it cost him a lot in all kindsa ways. I doubt we'd be watching JD on here if it weren't for him. After he died they named a street in Manchester after him. I think it's called "No we won;t give you money for cancer treatment street". Or something like that.

Cool to see Tony H Wilson at the start of this vid. He was instrumental in many bands getting noticed or signed, from Manchester and surrounding areas. Joy Division still stand out, as the feeling and sound, that many have followed and tried to copy.

Ian Curtis is never not impressive, and Hook/Morris/Sumner were one of the greatest rhythm sections of all time. They could repackage the same material over and over, and it would be worth a buy, so brilliant is the music.

Jay Coburn yeah it is brilliant! Actually, there was tons of great music right around '78. Talking Heads, Patti Smith, and PIL were gearing up to start flying. For once, all of the GREATEST BANDS in the world weren't all English.

Spiderman Gawd, this song is amazing! Ominous. I'll always wonder, did they write this stuff and then start playing to see what would happen? Or did they just start playing and this stuff is what happened? I guess they had the lyrics, and the general melody, anyway. Seems certain they were blowing each others minds playing these songs. They'd play the tapes back and go "Holy Shit!"

Richie B in general they just started out by jamming , and finding riffs that they liked , often it was Ian who would point out a guitar or bass guitar or drum bit he really liked , then they (I think generally Barney but with input from the others) would arrange it , and Ian would find something in his enormous stash of lyrics that would fit with the music, and he would come up with the vocal part from that.
