@NewWavePunk Yes I know that Ian was not a big fan but the rest of the band were. On w w w. gibson. c o m there is a feature entitled 'Peter Hook talks Joy Division and Bass heroes and states that his bass playing is essentially JJ Burnel from the Stranglers and the pose of Simonon from the Clash. There has been a lot of misinformation regarding the Stranglers over the years and a lot of hype attached to the importance of the other bands. However The Stranglers did'nt help themselves either.

@almklit - I was friends with Ian Curtis.

@NewWavePunk Have a look at this websites and blogs by John Robb.

@NewWavePunk It clearly states in John Robbs blog that Peter Hook was a huge fan and I have read JD used to see them live. It was Mr Wilson who hated the Stranglers because of the way they treated music journalists, and of course the bust up's with Clash and Sex Pistols. Tne Stranglers became the band they loved to hate, when in fact at the start they had a lot of respect. The early Stranglers sound was a heavy influence on Joy Division (and on U2 as well) It's an official fact.

@almklit - You guys clearly don't know the Stranglers let alone Joy Division if you think they stole the Stranglers signature sound. Ian Curtis couldn't stick the Stranglers so he certainly wouldn't have ripped their sound. JD left with legendary status not pub rock band. And that's coming from a massive Stranglers fan like me.
