New Order: Denial
Way different tempo from that on Movement...
I'm guessing this is one of those pivotal moments where what was written, in the style at least of Joy Division, finally started to transmute into what would be New Order.

Joy Division: Failures
Mere words wouldn't do Curtis & Co. justice.

Joy Division: No Love Lost
Had to post something from Joy Division, having watched the BBC doc. recently on iPlayer. Not a bad take, though a little heavy-handed on the Yay, look at mighty modern capitalistic Manchester thing, and the idea that Curtis & co. had anything to do with that, which is complete and utter bullshit. Worth watching if you're a fan (or even if not, cos' what the fuck is wrong with you), but Corbijn's take in Control is still more compelling, and, may I daresay, more in keeping with the feelings of the times, rather than how we may now wish(/pretend) them to have been. Oh, and I'd entirely forgotten that Samantha Morton played the part of Curtis' wife in that piece. I really need to see it again. But no, the BBC thing doesn't suck.
