After our episode on Unknown Pleasures, we wanted to explore more of the Joy Division catalogue! So we had a listen to three more albums that span the Joy Division timeline:
Warsaw (1978)
The planned debut album of the band, when they played under the name Warsaw. The band were disappointed with the labels post-production work however, and the deal fell through.
Closer (1980)
The highly acclaimed follow up to Unknown Pleasures, this album was released two months after the tragic death of frontman Ian Curtis.
Movement (New Order, 1981)
The remaining members of the band went on to form New Order, and became one of the most successful synth-rock bands of all time! And it all started in 1981, with the release of Movement.
These three albums mark the beginning and the end of Joy Division, followed by the band's rebirth as New Order.
Have a listen to this bonus episode and see what we made of them!
