JOY DIVISION - Unknown Pleasures LP techno when pounding an old-time country

when pounding an old-time country standard like “Cluck Old Hen” the duo makes it sound like a blues song

This is the better

with melody and a high bash quotient that keeps the songs surging

Peppering their concerts with CSN covers

' On 'Kill for Kicks' he proclaims 'I’m so tired

JOY DIVISION - Unknown Pleasures LP techno when pounding an old-time countryDebut album by Salford post punkers, recorded in April 1979, Martin Hannet's unique production techniques and Ian Curtis's doomed lyrics and monotone vocal lend the album a downbeat greatness that has been often emulated yet rarely surpassed. One of only two albums recorded by the band before Curtis's tragic suicide in 1980.
