Ian Kevin Curtis (15 July 1956 – 18 May 1980) was a singer-songwriter and musician. He was the lead singer and songwriter of the band Joy Division. Joy Divison formed after meeting at Sex Pistols show. The band also went through several name changes for themselves. They first appeared on the TV music show, So It Goes during the band’s performances. He did play guitar on a few tracks in the studio. Curtis became known for his bass-baritone voice and his deep and dark songwriting. He was also known for being quiet and having an awkward presence and his almost “ herky-jerky” dancing style, often from the epileptic seizures he began experiencing in the later part of 1978, which didn’t speak to anyone. The band released Pleasures albums in 1979 and Closer the following year.  Unfortunately, Curtis suffered from depression and was dealing with his seizures, possibly dealing with other matters in his personal life. So, Curtis took his life before the band’s North American tour. Joy Division only released two Unknown The rest of the members of Joy Division went on to form the new wave band New Order. Their sound was much more different than Joy Division, with less dark songwriting and a different sound. I say this about many artists, but Ian Curtis is one of the most important and influential artists in post-punk and “indie rock” He influenced a number with his songwriting and Joy Division’s sound. His movements are commonly used by some lead singers and by fans on the dance floor. I often wonder how Curtis would affect music if he were still alive. If you want a quick look into his complex life and short music career, his life is depicted in the films 24 Hour Party People and Closer. His life was plagued with many problems, but he left a long-lasting impression on many artists and fans.

Father I tried please believe me
I’m doing the best that I can
I’m ashamed of the things I’ve been put through
I’m ashamed of the person I am

My favorite game is playing two truths and a lie with people who don't know I'm playing it with them. I've lived a wild life, especially when I was a teenager and early twenties, so it gets fun. I'll let you in on the fact I'm playing this one time because it sounds like you've had a rough week.
1: I lead twelve drunken and stoned 19 year olds from a houseparty on a four mile walk. We went to a closed hotdog shop that my friend had a key to at midnight. We had backpacks full of liquor, taking shots and dodging police the whole way. Once we got there we watched Cars on DVD, and invented insane hotdog combinations, including a double hotdog burrito, then walked back still drunk at seven am.
2: I was trying to get into an underground punk concert one time but I didn't have any money for the cover charge, and they weren't letting anyone under the age of 18, I was 17, in the building. After some deliberation with the bouncer I managed to convince him to let me in by gifting him a small pipe bomb (very small) and six tabs of LSD. He wasn't convinced that the bomb was actually real, so I took the other one I had and used it to blow up a mailbox a few streets down. He let me in after that, and after making sure I didn't have any other weapons or explosives.
3: I used to break into abandoned houses with my band and play neighborhood block parties charging a $10 cover. We would invite other local bands to join in the fun and advertise the parties on craigslist. We would use vehicle jump boxes as power sources for our equipment and would play until the cops showed up, usually about two or three in the morning. When they arrived we had a team of friends who would each grab a piece of equipment while the cops were busy dealing with the crowd and throw them into the vehicles out back and speed off. Never got caught.
Which one is the lie?
Oh my gosh this is fun! I'm guessing #2 only because I know that if I ever attempted to use a pipe bomb I would lose a limb. Whichever one it is, I am so impressed at the amount of intricate detail you put into it. Also, now I know to be wary if you ever share stories in sets of 3!
Thanks for this! 🖤

What got me into goth was this friend of mine who had noticed I liked Joy Divison and had been listening to a little bit of Molchat Doma. I had been talking about how I wished I could find more music like it and she literally went. “U know there’s like an entire subculture around it right?”
Look, I knew goths existed, but I didn’t know what their music was like. So she made me this playlist and honestly if anyone else wants to get into the subculture I’m linking this playlist and it’s sequel because these playlists were the ones that made me fall in love w/ goth/post punk:
