Pornography is their best album but even then it's still nowhere near as good

>>75140911
Their secret best album is Bloodflowers.

Let Robert into your anal cavity

>>75140860
It's the album cover.

>>75142089
But he is a married man.

>not realizing Porcupine is the best ever Post-Punk album

I want Tumblr normies to leave

>>75142383

Echo's Bunnymen are hacks, they just ripped off U2

>>75140860
But anon closer is better

Nobody ever mentions And Also The Trees or Dead Can Dance, or even Black Marble in /dark/ threads and that saddens me.

Also I love Unknown Pleasures. Nice sex album. But Pornography has to take that cake, OP.

>>75140860
the wire made 3 albums better than any jd release
try again hunny

>>75144453
>nice sex album
Fucking lol

>>75144463
>the wire

>>75140860
Holy shit, I just looked this up on youtube and someone actually made a whole album about that one t-shirt!

>>75140860
that's not even the best joy division album

>*blocks your path*

>>75144463
nah they didn't, if you look at art through a historical scope. the wire's biggest torchbearers were REM and U2, whereas joy division influenced everything from synthpop to grunge to goth

The Chameleons are better

These guys are basically lo-fi joy division, idk if that interests you

>>75146238
idgaf about influence. i care about what sounds good

>>75140860
Because Ian martyr'd himself

>>75146779
so joy division doesn't sound as good as wire? like how

>>75144463
The Wire is kind of mediocre my dude

>>75147024
like how?
in everything
instrumentally and lyrically they are better than JD. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TZbOz1Pz5o
i'd advise you and this guy>>75147035 to stop learning about post-punk from netflix tv shows like 13 reasons why

>>75147074
Nigga, please, I learned about post-punk through shitty movies like Donnie Darko like all poseurs did once in my generation.

>>75147074
hahahah top fuckin b8. i cringed hard when joy division or the cure came on in that show. but i still kinda enjoyed it, just cause it pissed parents off

>>75147104
never seen donnie darko. is it good?

>>75140860
>>75140866
2 of the most overrated bands ever.
I've never enjoyed a single moment of their music.

>>75147143
"Hey ma look I did it again!"

>>75147118
Yes and no. It is not bad for what it is (dude deep teenager psychology lmao), but it is not great.

Objectively wrong. Closer has a couple good tracks, like Isolation and A Means to an End, but UP basically has gold with every track

>>75140860
>le shirt band

Objectively wrong. UP has a couple good tracks, like Disorder and She's Lost Control, but Closer basically has gold with every track

you should go stabbing yourself in the neck, pleb :^)

>>75144463
Pink Flag is overrated and it's about time someone said it. Chairs Missing and 154 do have a few brilliant tracks each (French Film Blurred, Another the Letter, The 15th, Map Ref...).

>>75147255
>>75147597
>>75147867
Both had their weak spots. Day of the Lords was overblown, especially having come right after Disorder, and Wilderness is pretty much filler. Atrocity Exhibition is a good example of Ian trying to sound too profound or literary. The synths in the first part of Decades aged horribly.

What are you on Wilderness is a killer song. If anything the worst song is I Remember Nothing

>>75148317
all post punk from that era has signs of aging strapped to it. look at Killing Joke ffs

Dead Souls was their best song

>>75148925
Definitely one of the best. Most of their best songs weren't even on their two albums

>Dead Souls
>Transmission
>Love Will Tear Us Apart
