The most haunting Joy Division song ever, which Ian wrote and performed only days before he committed suicide. In a way it was his signal that he’d be leaving.

One band was singing about mental illness, suicide, Nazis marching in Paris and fetish, while another sang about heartbreaks and angst because they were after commercial success

It’s all good brother, I was a virgin too

I done lived longer than you did child

And you are still a virgin

Still haven’t listened to this yet, still trying to wrap my head around Unknown Pleasures tbh

Original version is such a great song, shame you can’t hear his vocals on this

There is a rehearsal version with Ian singing as well, but I really like how inaudible it is. It adds to the eeriness of the song

Funny, I guess it’s because I mainly tend to listen to the gorgeous instrumental when this song comes on, I don’t see the song as eerie because of it

New Order are great too btw

Great songs
