You can hear their influences, and when you have a great band like Joy Division as a primary influence then you're bound to make great music.
Hey, you think these guys are Joy Division knock-offs, go listen to other Joy Division/New Order babies: The Killers, Interpol, Editors, The Cinematics, Bloc Party, I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness, you'll probably think these awesome bands are pastiches as well, when really, they are just bands with good taste.
They are weirdly nothing like Joy Division. I mean both bands play instruments and wear black. hhaahahah if i was going to say anything This sounds more like early Human League with a touch of the Rapture
This sounds nothing like Joy Division - try listening to a Joy Division album then compare. The bass playing on this i snearer to Raven's on KJ's Love Like Blood or similar. The melody and synth lines are far nearer Gary Numan andf John Foxx's Metamatic than anything JD ever did. The guitar is completely different to JD, more mainstream rock. This group were brilliant, the most promising UK act in a long while. Sad things didn't work out. I totally love the keyboard player in this by the way!
@TheSingingPassenger Same here. I heard their song Cigarette Machine on our Skate3 game and fell in love. The band sound and look so cool. What a shame.
haha yellow pants fuck yeh! go finn you are so hot and awesome! kickass song <3 haha have image of ed (drummer) on the baggage carousel at the airport bahahah :] looooove jasper's fringe
question to anyone with their album: does it have the lyrics? coz these ones are rly confusing me... anyone know?
ah i looove wrm! hope they come to aus. theyd better or ill kill someone! :]
WRM cut down on live shows shortly after 2007's gigs with NIN in australia and spent 2008 recording album 'by way of swans' which is out any day. UK showcase gigs for this have just been announced, this month in norwich (28 jan) and hoxton, london (29 jan). in the mean while 'taxxi' moved on (previously of the keyboard persuasion and now working in the art world) to be replaced by another girl named 'poppy'. all this and more detail is found on the myspace profile: whiterosemovement

@JazziiMassacre how is that proof of them being stupid? 99% of musicians have been influenced by another band or musician. Including classics like Mozart.
@jigaboon Can you read? That is exactly what I have said; that bands have been influenced by others, therefore they will sound like said other band. Jesus Christ on a bicycle, READ FIRST.
I was saying, that person was stupid, for giving such an example! Because it's stupid calling New Order a Joy Division rip off.
@JazziiMassacre i was actually really drunk and mixed up one of your comments and that douche bag you were arguing with...aka, i didnt mean to send that to you...

WTF they canot nae themselves after the white rose movemrnt in ww2 if they have nor relevence to them in thier song fuck of u dirty band sophie hans and scholl shoud not be related to you!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
why all these new indie bands , even if they sound well - which most of them don't sound even half well - why all of them got all these horrible shity haircuts and fashion sense ? where is the spirit of Jesus and the marry chain , WAFV - WORLD AGAINST FASHION VICTIMS
i actually killed somebody cause i didnt agree with the way he dressed. so i agree with you 100% ! and i got away with it too ! its easy ! anyone can do it ! i have my eye on a guy with a nasty haircut.. hes next ! peace!
I think they're amazing! First heard them 2 years ago, then went straight out and bought the album.
And how can anyone say it's unoriginal, i've not heard anything exactly like this before, similar, yes, but then doesnt all music have influences from other artists?!
Fuckin obvious retro- electro crap. uncreative ripoff shit. nice costumes homosexual-wannabe straight acting fag lookIng, 80's sounding , retro - new wave dressing ,one key on the keyboard pushing, nazi looking, english singing FAGGSS!! DO NOT EVER COMPARE THIS FUCK TO IAN!!!
Excellent band! I prefer their other two videos to this one though. I think it's obvious he emulates Ian in both appearance and dance style, which I think is totally fine. Their name is after an ANTI-nazi group. If you don't know who Ian Curtis is, check out Joy Division and then check out what JD's name means...
I went to school with Finn and he has always been an amazing musican, he can play the hell out of any instrument <1 of the best drummers i have ever heard> not to mention his voice. most exciting band around, no dought
I really wonder what this song is about.
