rear-view mirror: JOY DIVISION

It's the Joy Division year, no doubt. With Control on the cinemas, the deluxe re-edition of their albums, and many groups imitating their sound in the last years, everybody is talking about them again.
If you want some information about the band (is there anybody out there who still doesn't know their story?) you just have to watch the great Anton Cobijn biopic based on the book Mrs Curtis wrote some years ago. Here we are to celebrate that his music is more famous than ever before, and maybe more current and up-to-date are we seem we are leaving again a period of global depression.
Here we are some of their most relevant tunes:
ATMOSPHERE


TRANSMISSION


LOVE WILL TEAR US APART


SHE'S LOST CONTROL
