Rather fittingly Control is being shown on Sky at the moment (Sky Indie 310) and again at 20 past midnight...

It's good, it's also very sad and tragic. My other half, who loathes JD, really enjoyed the film though.

it's very good, and nice to see a lot of macclesfield in it, as some of it was shot in nottingham apparently.

Thanks for the headsup scook94...JD and early NO still my faves

"Atmosphere" gets me every time. Can anyone think of a bleaker piece of popular music? It's the musical equivalent of a leaden sky over a bleak moor.

Aye they really butchered Russ Abbott's masterpiece.

Theres another film out called eh , Joy Division!!! Similar to control and lots of good live footage.

The suicide note that is the whole album, Closer maybe?

I always think that Decades is the classic signing off tune

 

[Renard]

In a lot of ways, early New Order is a lot more poignant than JD stuff.... Ceremony and Your Silent Face are just two examples that spring to mind.

Ceremony is a Joy Division tune. There's a live version on 'Still'

My dad's thoughts on 'pop music' were legend. He once picked up a Joy Division single of my brother's, looked at it, and asked "Joy Davidson... who's she?"
