See, you can say it as "closer," as in diminishing distance. OR you can say it as "closer," as in the thing coffee is for, since Ian Curtis died.

1. Atrocity Exhibition
2. Isolation

In my native language, it's pronounced "throatwarblermangrove"... Think

As for the album, I'm one of what seems to be a small minority who think this one is a lot better than "Unknown Pleasures." I might also anger a few BEA readers with my opinion that Joy Division were overrated in general, but every few years I'll listen to this album to see if I've changed my mind about that. (Not yet, as of the last time I checked, but I'll probably live for a few more years so who knows.)

One of the first great albums of the 80s Smile
