To say that this video and music are "Emo" is stupid... "Emos" copied some of the gothic style (and many things of other styles)... they create poor superficial lyrics and arrangements and are not original, this can not be compared to Joy Division and other bands of end 70's and 80's... on that decade we had the born of the real Dark style, something new at that moment... Joy Diviion is the transition of Punk to Dark/Gothic, too much important to the scene... "Emos" are... cry children maybe?...
i fuckin love joy division, but people..you do know that 'emo' meens 'emotional'...most music is 'emotional'...people singing about there emotions. long live joy division. ian you fuckin legend
q pedo con este pinche video EMO!!! le diste en la madre a la rola y en especial a uno de los mejores grupos del postpunk!!! no puede ser posible q se lo adueñen solo por q se identificaron con la pelicula de control, q ni sabian q existia joy division hasta q saliò la movie!!! VALES MADRE!!!
Food for thought S4M3L......the eloquence of your argument almost convinces my that Joy Division, is indeed, a 'cunt'......then again, it could just be that you are a pathetic piece of small minded vermin, the like of which I wouldn't soil my shoes with by stepping on.....I wonder which it is?
In fairness though, I didn't see the 'If'' at the start of your first post and thought you were saying that Joy Division was 'Emo' music!....whatever,......JD are the finest band this planet has ever seen, I don't care what labels people want to give them as long as they appreciate their pure genius.
Why does only Ian Curtis get all the credit for Joy Division? Because of his suicide?....So what? What about the guitars? What about the drums? Aren't they good as well?
They supposedly were just learning to play their instruments and look how good they ended up sounding. That's amazing. But everything's always centered around Ian.....
emo = wanky bullshit poser music. THIS is JOY DIVISION. Real music with invention, originality, songwriting, musicianship. There is NO comparison to emo wank!! Get a clue kids.

A 5 star song: She's Lost Control - Joy Division - 1979 - "AMG Pick. The song centres on Peter Hook's cool, droning, minimalist bassline formed over a methodical and mechanistic drum beat, courtesy of Stephen Morris. Live, the song would be played at a faster pace, and much more aggressive,..." - Substance 1977-1980 (Qwest)-1988. NOTE: The above CD is one that you should check out.
24 Hour party people ... loved that movie,specially everytime i hear this song i can stop thinking about that part when the producer said to the drummer ' whf r you doing,what's that noise,go play outside' and he did,the band left and you can see the guy playing this drum set on the roof... Great!
i just got epilepsy 9 months ago and have been a joy division fan since i was 15 now 38 .....I see this song in a whole new light ...im on the same meds that ian was on and its not fun ...lost my job ...no more skateboarding .....alot of random confusion
'Punk...tore away the dross but all it could say was, "fuck you!". Joy Division came along and said something much more dark and complex. They said, "we are lost".'
Quote taken from an interview with Tony Wilson in The Observer, 3 March 2002.
the first thing i thought about when i read this post was that it was from a woman. well, i was right. why don't you try and get insane if it was as 'easy' as hanging himself?
@isabellefraggleface... you try living with what ian had.. if you actualy know about him, you will understand this song... and how mutch it affects people and himself... thats why he took his own life, he couldnt live with the condition....
woah woah woah, he didn't commit suicide because of his epilepsy, he took his own life because his band had no control in which direction it was going, AND he was having a ton of relationship issues. Maybe the condition was a factor, but certainly not the only reason.
post punk punk chiki punk psicodelia emo no se que porquerias mas joy division es joy division y punto escuchar tanta mierda me enferma ahora me van a decir que ian era emo jajajaja esto es musica de verdad no niñerias cabrones
To call this "emo"... I think public execution by stoning is in order... Joy Division wipes the floor with any stupid little emo garbage band, any day... Joy Division rules, then, now and forever...
Great song. I didn't appreciate Joy Division so much at the time, but some things from that era which I appreciated then sound crap now. This has stood the test of time, it has its own stark integrity.
Hey you guys I just did a search 20 minutes after watching Control - I was interested in the hypnotism of Ian by Bernard so I googled a search and came up with 666 results !!! SCARY OR WHAT
Try it yourself (it might still work) using the search phrase
bernard sumner was studying hypnotism ian curtis
or look at the video I made showing the search and results on my youtube page
The song is about a girl he met in an home for people with extreme epilepsy, and how his epilepsy was getting worse, and his thoughts that he will end up like that.
Close, zeberdee. How it came about was that Ian worked at a jobcentre as a DRO(Disablement Resettlement Officer) and his job was to assist people with disabilities find work.
One of the people he helped was this epileptic girl(Ian himself was epileptic, so it would ahve struck a chord with him). When she stopped coming into the Jobcentre he phoned her family and was told that she'd had a really bad fit and died, and that event inspired this song.
one of the best ever from the era...
