Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures



















download

A rumbling melancholic bass leads over a gray landscape with cold simplistic guitar, simpler drums and tortured baritone vocals. This is one of the most influential albums of all time, not perfect by any means but it doesn't have to be to achieve its beauty. I would recommend this over Closer, even though there are a couple really great songs on that album (24 Hours in particular) this in it's entirety is much stronger.
