[livejournal.com profile] ladyaelfwynn wants me to post about: Your favorite punk/New Wave band

Joy Division, hands down.

Not sure how I first found out about them - either one of my suburban goth/indie/weird friends discovered that New Order had a previous incarnation or I did myself in my teenage musical meanderings. In any event, I came for the "ancestor of New Order" and the tragic rock-star mystique (morose artist self-destructs at peak of creativity [YouTube]) but stayed for the deep, brooding melodies. Even after all these years, the more I listen, the more there is to hear.

Favorite track? "Atmosphere":



I'm not a fanatical purist about much, but IMHO this track should never be covered by ANYONE. You can sample "Love Will Tear Us Apart" until the cows come home, but leave me my glittering synth!
