All auctions / Music & Musical Instruments / Joy Division - Still-double cassette boxset - Canada - Audio cassette - 1986


ow in auction: The very rare and very hard to find double cassette boxset Still by the amazing new wave band Joy Division. Please read the discription below and see the numerous pictures. Joy Division were an English rock band formed in Salford in 1976. The group ⁹consisted of vocalist, guitarist and lyricist Ian Curtis, guitarist and keyboardist Bernard Sumner, bassist Peter Hook, and drummer Stephen Morris. Singer and songwriter Ian Curtis still stands as a rocklegend in the new wave scene. One of his most famous quotes is: "Basically, we want to play and enjoy what we like playing. I think that when we stop doing that, I think, well, that will be time to pack it in. That will be the end." Curtis died on 18 May 1980 because of suicide. Despite their short career, Joy Division have exerted a wide-reaching influence and achieved widespread critical acclaim. John Bush of AllMusic argues that Joy Division "became the first band in the post-punk movement by ... emphasizing not anger and energy but mood and expression, pointing ahead to the rise of melancholy alternative music in the '80s. Distinguished as "Joy Division/New Order", the group has been nominated three times for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (2023, 2025, and 2026), and was inducted in 2026. The band's dark and gloomy sound, which Martin Hannett described in 1979 as "dancing music with Gothic overtones", presaged in part the gothic rock genre. While the term "gothic" originally described a "doomy atmosphere" in music of the late 1970s, the term was soon applied to specific bands like Bauhaus that followed in the wake of Joy Division and Siouxsie and the Banshees.
