Le Diabolique ...we didn't give a shit about that in 1978 ...it was " them " that gave us and the music a label ....we just wanted excitement and change
Definitely punk, here. The Ideal For Killing boot lp is even more raw. They met up at a SexPistols show and formed a punk band. Yes, they evolved into something far beyond but JD was a punk band, too. That Became post punk and that was more a result of the album's production because the live and non album demos are raw and loosr. I swear their fans are more pretentious and protective of them them than the band themselves ever were. .
Got the original 12 inch of this. Still in mint condition. What a musical education. Still gives me goosebumps. Saw them live twice as well. Best band ever.
This EP is a terrible recording and far from their “finest” work. At this point in their career they had no idea that they would go on to make songs such as Dead Souls, Shadow play, She’s lost Control, Means to an End, Transmission and two of the most influential albums of all time. Their finest work was yet to come.
@@SlimyboyDave thx dude, however, everything that kept me going was nature and (wild) animals around my place, but bulldozers and ugly greedy humans smashed and killed all that, so i really have problems to find any new motivator, since i lost faith in said ugly greedy humans a long time ago... i am aware that still there are some souls on this planet that could be my soulmates, but it became increasingly more difficult to find them, especially here at 'home'... where to go???? how to escape... thank you and know that your energy helped a bit, stay beautiful...
And if anyone has seen the film 'Control" you should remember the scene as Curtis is walking down the street to the unemployment office where he works and Leaders of Men comes on the soundtrack then as the camera pans back he has HATE painted on the back of his coat ! Goosebump time !!
Check out the Joy Division 'Peel Sessions' if you want to hear what they sounded like Live [with no crowd noise] no wonder they were always pisst off with Martin Zero Hannett, the band wanted to capture the raw energy on record, but Hannett saw the beauty & more, he was proved right at the end (they do have some great gigs recorded)
Let's face the fact: if the clock starts in the late 70s, Joy Division with merely two albums and some singles is the greatest rock n roll band in the world: and I'll rest the claim on merely two shows, Paris 1979, and Amsterdam 1980. "I put my TRUST in you ..."
Well just heard it on my headphones, sounds tototaly different from my 7inch from 78,not heard one of the songs since probably 1980.but today my 16 year old daughter played it on her soundbox.i didn't khow how much it was worth. Good job my kids listen to punk and not just pop punk.
Deffo 1 of the best along with The Falls Bingo EP, and The Smiths William EP, Ride's First EP, and Marillion Market Square EP. Most people under 30 won't even know what an EP is these days lol 😉
Oh I bet there's a good bit still.. Wire? Magazine and early post Deveto Buzzers? Early Cure? Lots of sub genres there my man, I got back into Thrash Metal, as you do, since the 80s when I was a kid and there was a revival of young bands a few years back, so many different new bands and genres, all these kids from different countries, different levels of skill, style what have you.. All just under Thrash - I bet there are are some decent new bands - the old record selling model is more, give albums away free and if you dig the band go to the gigs, buy the albums, buy the t-shirts.. Of course choosing a record just on its art or cover songs or word of mouth was fun, but had plenty drawbacks too. I like the internet model myself as a Gen X'er for whatever thats worth. Mettallica trying to stop all that and piracy lol.
@@waycnf7229 It was rubbish by todays standards but it was one of 3 that came to the UK in the early 70's. Plastic, pinky/purple and fast. It got run over by a car and split in 2, my Dad got 2 strips of steel and made it a one off!!
Really hard to pick which song is the best/fav and what a way to showcase who the fuck you are and what your art is about.. fucking brilliant album and what a way to jumpstart a career into the history books Warsaw/joy division made there mark on music there way and still hasn’t been replicated..
Brought here by Steve Morris’ memoir which is a droll delight. Definitely sounds a lot more amazing than he remembered it. The story of bad luck behind this record are fantastic - defo worth a read if you haven’t.
Reminds me of Static Age by The Misfits also recorded 78/79. Listen to album Legacy of Brutality released 1985 of Static Age era. Btw, I'd have that piece of music history in a dust-jacket, in a case, in a clean-room,......not only because it's worth a small fortune! ;-)
oh yes. After all, the decision to start a band was taken by Hook and Sumner after attending a Sex Pistols' gig and Ian Curtis was a huge fan of Iggy Pop. So, yes, there was a lot of punk in Joy Division.
The thing is punk died of exposure but some of us carried on, dragging the lifeless corpse around telling people " OPEN YOUR EYES AND LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE DONE "
@@disklamer As a happy ex punk, I curse punk rock and it's Tavistock inspired mind control. Didn't you ever pay attention to the cash from chaos slogan? They meant what they said.
@@HermanWaldorf lots of bands came out of that gig Ian curtis, morrisey, Siouxsie Sioux, I’m pretty sure Peter Murphy? We’re all there. Either way that Sex Pistols show gave us some unique bands
Although JD isn't typically considered a "hard-core" punk act, I'd put this E.P. of theirs up against any album by any band declared to be so and judge it to be at least as aggressive, raw and in-your-face as anything by Black Flag, Minor Threat, Dead Kennedys, Bad Brains, et. al. -- Henry Rollins, for one, I know, would agree!!
@@snuscaboose1942black flag are too scene Joy division just IS and cannot be described I think they are far unique and complex and original then all punk bands
Barnards Loop (the uploader) has put above that 1. Warsaw - 2:26, meaning the song duration is 2 mins 26 secs, then under that song 2 starts at (2:23) LOL
Was originally released on 7 inch but the sound quality was terrible. Was re-released on 12 inch opening up the vinyl grooves. The sleeve was of scaffolding and in colour. This is before Martin hannett. Saw them 3 times. Wish it was more.
ive still got original on 12" & WARSAAW bootleg..!I treasure em alongside BUZZCOCKS Spiral with Howard Devoto..Love em all but more importanly its the Music!!

You must be joking mate
I can't decide which song I love most
Same
Martin Hyizna no love lost, spoken word is intense.
I absolutely love leaders of men.
Brother?
It’s a bootleg never came out on 12inch
this is Joy Division ..aka 'WARSAW` as was..just sublime..Ian Curtis is a legend! thanks for your haunting voice & dancing..big insperation to me..
they really were something else.
This EP needs more ears
more tears
40 years on still here, timeless!
Let's face the fact: if the clock starts in the late 70s, Joy Division with merely two albums and some singles is the greatest rock n roll band in the world: and I'll rest the claim on merely two shows, Paris 1979, and Amsterdam 1980. "I put my TRUST in you ..."
The Sex Pistols have one and are in the RRHOF where Joy Division should be in hopefully '26.
I dig your style 🫵🏼🤙🏼🎸
yr comment made me laugh but you're right, these rock animals they are The Who, The Kinks and The Stones in 1964 times ten.
Warsaw - 0:00
No Love Lost - 3:43
Leaders Of Men - 6:05
Failures ( Of The Modern Man ) - 8:38
Curtis sounds like Dave Vanian of The Damned on these recordings but either way they are great stuff on the whole.
Saw them in 1979..they backed the Buzzcocks!
Absolute masterpiece!
If this is not the greatest EP of all time then I don't know what is
You’ve obviously never heard of ‘Spiral Scratch’ by Buzzcocks😬
@daveh5986 yeah that's a great ep as well 👌

No había escuchado está banda me emociona y revoluciona emocionalmente es excitante ahora desde hoy soy fan de joy división
Es la misma agrupacion. Estos son sus inicios. Acababan de cambiar su nombre a Joy Division, antes Warsaw, antes Stiff Kittens.
Joy Division's punk stuff has been the only punk I've been able to get into from the late 70s-mid 80s

British punk? Conflict,gbh,discharge etc.....
have you listened to the fall? if not i suggest live at the witch trials
Bad religion 80-85?
no love lost would be hard to nail . these guys are way too gnarly. few 45s have the impact this one does.
Just great music that paved the way

I absolutely adore Warsaw
A new world awaits!
Somehow this sounds familiar even though I've never listened to this.
Because if you like rock music these guys influenced everyone from oasis to nirvana to the killers ext ext ext ext
Underrated band big time
It was released in 1978 but it's been brewing in the collective unconscious since 1937.

I have to check that out. I'm listening to Hooky's and it's a laugh riot. As others have pointed out, the 7" version sounded pretty bad.

The Best EP of History of Rock
PRE-JOYDIVISION
Yes this is WARSAW
"But Joy Division wasn't pu-"
Justin they weren't. An ideal for living is still 100% post punk, But it is definitely more raw and less refined than future releases.
If anything this album sounds like the VU. Too jam-y and experimental to be punk rock.
Laughing my ass off at someone saying with a straight face that Warsaw and Failures are post-punk songs LOL.
As Warsaw how they privious name was they were justin
how is there such thing as post punk in 1978
Total intensity
this ep >>>>>>>>>
This EP was recorded on 14th December 1977, while Charlie Chaplin was still alive.
Warsaw サイキック青年団のジングルやったんや。さすが板井さん！

I think JD are a bit uncategorise-able, but then I've no idea what "post punk" means
Alternance punk period ?
After, not alternance .
why hasn't anyone passed through this wtf!!!
Because most people claiming to be fans of Joy Division nowadays think:
A. They were an 80s band when in fact they recorded the majority of their material in the late 1970s.
and
B. They only know the songs 'Love Will Tear Us Apart', 'She's Lost Control' and at a push 'Transmission'.
'At a push Transmission'? Wtf Other than LWTUA I think Transmission is their most famous track
well said.....i saw them as Warsaw in Manchester at a club called the Ranch .....
Please stop using that new trendy word 'snowflake'. It's childish. And, no, they were never Nazis, you fool.
