Final Thoughts On Joy Division
After giving “Substance” a thorough listen, they sound like a band that tried to be Bauhaus but utterly failed. I can see where they might have been influential on certain bands in the 90s (Alice In Chains and Nine Inch Nails come to mind) but in all, this band fails. Bauhaus on the other hand, absolutely rules. It took a few listens for it to really sink in, but DAMN they were awesome. I’ll be picking up more of their material.
