Been thinking of writing about them for quite some time. Thanks to Grant Gee's(see video below) "pop culture can be cruel for people of certain disposition - the poets and thinking types" - as if it strikes a chord in me - provided some impetus.
It's not the "tortured poet-singer-musician" image i like about Joy Division. Somehow their music seems truer than most out there. It's very emotional and you don't want to see a man like that. It's powerful and modern. It's pure art. The dark and brooding lyrics soaked in anguish. The guitar riffs. The deep voice. It's just haunting...!
