Still echoes today! I think post-punk blossomed in 1978 from Siouxsie and the Banshees, Magazine, Wire, Stranglers, Devo. Stranglers' Black and White might be the first post-punk record in May 1978.

If that’s the case, thanks for the clarification! This was my source, and might’ve missed the specific context when reading it: “Curtis primarily drew the lyrical inspiration for "She's Lost Control" from a young woman with whom he had become acquainted through his employment as an Assistant Disablement Resettlement Officer at a Macclesfield occupational rehabilitation centre between 1978 and 1979.”

Just a little info... my father in law worked with Ian Curtis at the smaller place in Macclesfield, which you can see at the start of the film about Curtis called "Control" ... when Ian leaves his house in Barton Street, crosses South Park Road to enter the building. It's an excellent movie and many of the other locations in the film are historically correct. They even moved modern cars, and parked older cars in the streets for example. He said that Ian was very conscientious with his work, but also had an intense, maybe depressed side to him. Being the generation above, he didn't know who Joy Division were untill later, but I definitely got from him good vibes about Ian, with him expressing that it was such a shame that he didn't get find the correct help with his mental health.

I think that second bass is actually a guitar octaved down with effects. There are two great movies which deal with Joy Division - "Control", which is a straight biopic of the band (and excellent), and the bizarre and humorous (but no less accurate) "24 Hour Party People", which deals with the history of Factory Records. Both are well worth a watch. Hannett's peculiar way of recording - and more peculiar personality - is highlighted in the second movie, where he's excellently portrayed by Andy Serkis. So too is the change from Joy Division to New Order.

The bassist used a two-string bass with C# and G# strings only (christened a "basitar"), while the guitarist used a three string guitar with C# low, G#, and C# high strings (named the "guitbass"). All their strings were unusually heavy gauge.

The sound quality is stunningly better than nearly every other live recording of this band.

So that was a learning curve of epic proportions and, in that, he could only ever come up with a personal way of doing it. The other thing that amuses me is that he was supposedly in the running to become bass player for The Rolling Stones. Which even he finds ridiculous. As with the true British working class, he can do what he can do. There's an upper limit.

They didn't necessarily construct the sound around the lyrics and their theme. The way I hear it, most of the time the rest of the band didn't know what Ian Curtis was singing about, and they dealt with it as a sound and a mood, rather than trying to write music around his narratives. They were putting musical ideas together as they felt driven to, and he slotted words into their tunes, if anything, rather than the other way around. It was more happy accident than genius, at least that's what they've said in interviews and in the two movies Control and 24 Hour Party People.

Bro he got medication for it from doctors and had fits when strobes came on, etc. You really gonna try to split hairs over someone who was so miserable about a multitude of things, including that, that they took their own life 44 years ago? Grow up.

Hook had bad gear, I think his Rickenbacker was a Honda? Between the bass and his amp, he had very little volume, to be heard he had a tendency to 'play the high notes". This could have been managed in the studio, but by the time they got to the studio, the songs had already been written that way. That was the sound of the band. On a number of songs he plays a 'melody' over an open string played like a drone, Love will tear us Apart - there best known song uses the A,D,and G individually as a drone during the course of the riff - a lot of people miss this, since they are not used to using a string above the ones they are playing on as a drone, it is typically lower strings. Again, this style was developed as a way to make a weak bass amp compete with a much louder guitar amp

It was just what thousands of British bands were doing that weren't famous in the aftermath of punk when they couldn't play all that well and kind of jammed songs to a bass riff... Even PIL did that.. bands were doing very similar things in bedrooms and village halls in practices and little gigs up and down the country. Some got signed and some didn't. In Britain who gets signed never has much to do with talent in terms of being more talented than contemporaries. There was many bands who did this sort of stuff.
