hell are we going? I don't even know you like that I can't be your + 1

I don't recall that many Joy Division imitator bands. In the early Eighties there was a local band in Boston named The Dark that explored a lot of the same emotional territory as Joy Division but really didn't sound like Joy Division. I'm not sure what happened to The Dark... They simply disappeared into thin air after a couple of years.

Certainly, Joy Division wasn't the first band to explore the dark side of reality, but few band were so utterly convincing as Joy Division was.

White Lies sounds like a "lite" version of Joy Division, but they came on the scene 30 years after the death of Ian Curtis.

Wow.. i just realised interpol does sound alot like Joy division but like a more polished version of them.

i always associated the deep voice as being similar but now thinking about it they are also similar rhythm wise although Interpol has way better timing than joy division.

Im srry if what i said is very obvious but i literally just figured this out now after reading this thread lol

sad what happened to the lead singer of joy division.

Clone division..


The Drums - Money - YouTube

WHUT?:whythis: THE DRUMS SOUND NOTHING LIKE JD!

If anything they sound like a JD clone!

Sure they do! at least in that song money they do..

it's got that same deep voice and the guy even sounds like him a little!

I also agree this band you posted sounds alot like them as well.

No darling The Drums are infinitely more poppy then Joy Division was.
