Product of a suicidal man's hopeless and suffering look at life, it's just unique. It's at the same time pop and avant-garde, simple and pretentious, well-thought and sincere. It's lyricism and experimentalism influenced pretty much everyone, and in such a strong way that music history is best divided in 'before' and 'after Unknown Pleasures'.
