There are some things which really dont seem as if they were released 30 years ago. The 7" single given the catalogue number FAC 13 first hit the shops in October 1979. I'm guessing that more people heard the song for the first time over the past 5 years than did over the previous 25 years such has been the resurgent interest in Joy Division and in particular the life and death of Ian Curtis ....

I'm a 49 year old man stuck in the body of a 16 year old who wishes he was alive in the 60's. People in the supermarket I work at tell me "Enjoy your youth" whenever I make a crack about being too young to sell alcohol. Well no. What's there to enjoy? And so what if I sound like an angsty little so and so. 40 years ago Beatles mania was the phrase 0f the moment, people listened to music on...

...is (deep breath) still my favourite version of the song. Not only do I have the same confession as Liz (though why we feel the need to confess, I'm still working on); that Paul Young's version was the first I heard but also that when I heard the Joy Division version a few years later I thought it was a ropey Paul Young cover - and in fact, that's how I still see things now. When No Parlez came out...

The last ten years have seen New Order finally come to terms with their previous history, embracing Joy Division in a way that they had never done so previously, cementing their place in British music folklore with the films 24 Hour Party People and Control, and releasing yet another Greatest Hits collection with half the tracks being incorrectly labelled or pulled from the wrong source. Business as...

In the meantime, here's an excellent shot of us both on the back steps of 39 & 41 when we were younger, better looking, less wrinkled and obviously, a little slimmer! Jesus! Love the t-shirts tho', I'm wearing a dilapidated Joy Division shirt and I remember designing and screen printing that Eat The Rich one you're wearing... punk as feck!

Osaka postpunk quartet Yolz in the Sky's new album "Ionization" follows on from the best moments of their self-titled 2007 debut with a series of insistent dance beats and reverb-heavy guitars underscoring the relentless harangue of the echoing, ranting vocals. This time, however, Yolz in the Sky take it way further, with the title track a repetitive, stripped down loop; the metallic buzz...

COLD CAVE Love Comes Close (Matador Edition) Matador ELECTRO / SYNTHPOP LP We're still buzzed-up on Cold Cave's utterly f*cked-up and insanely brilliant compilation of early material 'Cremations' that came out a few weeks back, so you can only imagine how hyped we are over their debut LP proper, 'Love Comes Close'. While that first comp was engrossing from start to finish, we much preferred those tracks...
