  • Joy Division started as just another punk band in the burgeoning Manchester music scene. But they quickly developed into something unique and special. This is the story of Joy division and how Ian Curtis and the rest of the band became the voices of the post-punk world.

    If there's any video I think you should watch til the end, it's this one (even though its 45 minutes long - you can skip to the end)

    Great video. Joy Division was one of my favorite bands in high school. They were THE quintessential "Post-Punk" group, but they were also one of the most important bands in music, imo. This is actually one of the better YT videos I've seen about them.

      Thanks for watching! And thanks for the kind words - there's a lot of great content about this band out there; I'm happy to do my part

    Martin Hannett was heavily influenced by The Doors album Waiting For The Sun re the sound effects on Unknown Soldier etc, he incorporated this in to the production of Unknown Pleasures.
    Joy Divisions darkly beautiful music continues to find new audiences. ❤
    Great upload.

    Joy Division randomly came on in my playlist at work (residential construction). I knew a little about “the lead vocalist” and absolutely love the music. So I thought, let’s learn more…I searched for more and found this video. 4 DAYS OLD! What a time.

    Very nice video! One musical act I had in mind was Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. They apparently reinvent their sound just about every time they make a new album and is prob what contributed to them staying as relevant as they have, because it's not often I see 80s bands staying this relevant and fresh with new material for this long. U2 is prob their closest comparison in this regard, but while U2 has several retrospectives, The Bad Seeds don't really seem to have any, so it would be cool to see a video on them!

    Ooof, this is a seriously heartbreaking story, you did an excellent job telling it though and you definitely gave it the dignity that it deserves, I've been watching your content for a while now and I've noticed you getting better at both your writing and your delivery with each video you put out, this is definitely one of your best, keep up the great work brother
