At what age did you realize New Order are better than Joy Division?

>dance pop
u wot m8? They're atmospheric post-punk. Love Will Tear Us Apart is their only song that could be called dance pop.

I always liked new order more, they are too poppy for hipster faggots.
I had a phase where i was really into that whole 24 hour party people madchester scene.

I dont hate joy division, but they are like the hipster equivalent of some 12 year old or dumb slut wearing a dadrock band t shirt.

18 or 19

>>72533446
Did they gangbang that girl?

>>72533446
some pretty sick haircuts on Bernard and Stephen here

also 16, when I bought Substance

I love them both, and while I disagree with your opinion I still respect you as a person :)

Would have enjoyed them a lot more if they had stuck with the early sound of Power Corruption & Lies. The songs from that album/era of the band are a really cool middle ground between faster guitar-driven post punk and the new wave dance stuff. Procession and Ceremony in particular are two of the best goddamn songs ever made

The stuff after that is great but not quite the same I think

>>72533503
New Order are the best dance pop with sad lyrics.
>>72533750
Yes.

>>72533860
I view PC&L as a stepping stone in their sound. I think Technique is the absolute peak of the sound they were going for in the 80s IMO Technique sounds the closest to a singles compilation.

>>72533750
They didn't. But I did. Last night. With your mom.

LOL JK

Movement 1981 was the best combination of Rock and Synth ever made.

Unknown Pleasures is the best album by either and it's only a 7/10

>>72533962
At least we can all agree this is the worst opinion in the thread

But that's wrong

>>72533962
Plebeian scum. Low-Life, Closer and Power, Corruption & Lies are all better than Unknown Pleasures.

>>72533998
Different anon, I wouldn't call Low dance pop. It's synth driven but it leans more towards rock than dance pop.

>>72533998
That's not really dance pop. Scary Monsters would be a better choice.

>>72533860
Low-Life is their best though

>>72534027

Did Hooky ever look younger than 35?

>>72533998
lol.

Low is bowie collaborating with eno and making ambient.

If you want dance bowie he literally has a song called lets dance

>>72533998
>Low
>dance pop
Half of the album is art rock and the other half is ambient.

they look so inbred in that photo i love it.

>>72533446
New Order were better singles band but they never made as good albums as UP or closer

>>72534122
Technique

>>72534122
Low-Life
Power, Corruption & Lies
Brotherhood
Technique

Movement is pretty damn good too. Everyone acts like the Substance compilation album is New Order's masterpiece but New Order made some incredible studio albums in the 80s.

everything after technique is pure grabj, they lost their magic after that, even the album cover for republic looks like a shitty stock photo spliced together in ms paint by an intern

>>72533446
As much as I love NO you have to admit Bernard Sumner is kind of a shit singer.

>>72534189
>Brotherhood
That was a bit of a misstep

>>72534275
I love it. Every Little Counts is the only song that feels a bit out of place.

12 inch version of The Perfect Kiss is the undisputed GOAT synthpop song and possibly the best track of the 1980s. Prove me wrong

>>72534248
Republic has some pretty good songs, senpai. You're right that the cover is dreadful though. Music Complete is a bit too long but it's a good album. If you take out Stray Dog and shorten Nothing But a Fool and Academic it's a solidly enjoyable album from beginning to end.

>>72533446
For a hot minute Peter Hook was pretty hot. He must have got so much post-punk pussy.

Low-Life is their masterpiece. I used to prefer Power, Corruption & Lies but this year I realized Low-Life is superior.

>their most varied album
>perfect balance of rock and dance
>The Perfect Kiss is one of their top 3 best songs

>Joy Division didn't use synths

someone hasn't listened to Closer

literally on Joy Division's most famous single(Love Will Tear Us Apart) Bernard is playing a Synthesizer and Ian is playing Guitar

>>72534079

pre-beard he used to look young but also super gay

to quote Paul Morley about early Joy Division "[at Battle of the Bands] They were furious, previously we had seen them and Bernard had a spidery mustache and Hooky had his little gay leather cap: they were kind of oddballs but suddenly Ian[ brought the whole thing together]"

>>72534273
>MUH SKIS

>>72534478
Skis?

>>72534495
Hook mentions in one of his books that on their first time in New York. Bernard manages to steal a pair of "the shittiest skis" He'd ever seen. He proceeded to crash the rental truck three or four times. Lost all of their equipment and the skis. And never let the rest of the band forget those skis.

>>72533446
I've never gotten into New Order. Are they actually better than Joy Division? JD has almost no bad songs.

>>72534773
You need to get into them, senpai. They're an incredible band. Don't go into them expecting Joy Division 2.0 though. Movement is Joy Division as fuck but after that album they moved away from atmospheric post-punk and moved towards synthpop/alternative dance.

>>72534577

how did Bernard manage to crash 4 rental cars? Bez only crashed like 2 during the Monday's Barbados escapade

>>72534773
>>72534944
Listen to:

Movement
Power, Corruption & Lies
Low-Life
Brotherhood
Technique

And all of their 80s singles and EPs. Everything they made in the 80s is essential.

most of rock is pop, this thing is not an exception

Disorder is not a dance pop song. Joy Division never made dance pop. This is dance pop:

Lol if you knew my age I wouldn't be getting Senpai. I listen to a ton of music, but the journey's just never taken me to New Order.

how did buying an album of singles and unreleased Joy Division songs convince you New Order was better? or did you confuse Substance with Substance 87(the New Order 12" compilation)?
