Comment:

Arguably [i]the[/i] greatest post-punk band of them all, Joy Division glowered out of Manchester in the late '70s on a cumulative wave of affecting melancholy, electronic innovation (largely thanks to visionary producer Martin Hannett), and coiled-spring energy, the likes of which had never been heard before. The suicide of lead singer Ian Curtis, whose epilepsy added genuine tension to his intense electro-shock stage performances, brought the band its early dissolution (the nucleus would reform as New Order). We've based this salute on their two official album releases ([i]Unknown Pleasures[/i] and [i]Closer[/i]), and we've added the early punk-leaning track "Warsaw" and a live version of "Sister Ray".
