"Closer" (Joy Division)
Music to Brood by, Desolate and Stark:
Joy Division’s songs provide a harsh sound that lives up to the lyrics’ unflinching view of the human condition.
The Cult of the Lads From Manchester:
A documentary and a fiction film about Joy Division return a mythic hero to life size.
Both of these films look interesting. Ever since the first time I listened to Joy Division (circa mid 80s, well after Ian Curtis was dead), I've loved their mix of intellectual, nihilistic lyrics and brash, post-punk music.
