RIP Ian Curtis
That's the whole reason this band exists. It's just Joy Division without Ian.
It's starts of pretty charming and surprisingly witty, but that's because Ian kind of wrote "Ceremony". As I've said before, I'm in a weird Goth Music phase, so Joy Division is a win for me. But after "Temptation", the Album turns into a literal porno. "Blue Monday" is actual porn music, and it's just so weird and electro. The rest of the Album just sucks from there. It has no solid direction, no firm grounding, and is kind of depressing knowing that this band is kind of just Joy Division without Joy Division.
