Joy Division was the first old school goth band I ever listened to. I will always love them.  

[MellieWood]

I believe they created goth music.

I'm a sinner, I actually much preferred them as New Order.

The Joy Division documentary is opening in New York this weekend. 3nodding
No word on a general theatrical release yet though.

Joy Division are over rated and needed to CHEER THE HELL UP!

Ian Curtis was made into another false messiah... the archetype for what Cobain is. Seriously people, don't buy the hype, the synth thing was done much better by Gary Numen anyway.

Perhaps Maynard is to follow?

Anyway, Closer is a great album. Definetly THE sound of goth. "Decades" is oddly addictive.

Closer was pretty huge in terms of impact on the goth sound... though really, I still argue that goth wouldn't exist without Bela Lugosi's Dead, and that wouldn't exist with Joy Division's "Shadowplay".

"Heart and Soul" is a great example, as well.

I believe "We're So Happy" is worth mentioning as well.

Yes, anything off Closer is a good example.
That Ian Curtis is one lazy b*****d. He hasn't put out an album in years!

Actually didn't goth have its roots in New Romanticism rather then early electronica?

I have the albums Still, Substance and Closer... I enjoy specially Substance, there are many great songs.

Joy Divion is an amazing band. I have a particular liking for the song "Atmosphere".
