Huntsman Hill

The shadow(play) of this band and this record in particular, looms large.  From its iconic cover to the deification of singer Ian Curtis after his suicide shortly after the albums release to their transformation into the stadium filling New Order afterward, everything about Joy Division feels big and important.  But what about the music itself?  Sure it influenced everyone from The Cure to U2, Tears For fears to Interpol but does it hold up on its own merits in 2024?  We dig into the fading new dawn and attempt to remember everything.    Recommended Listening   HHPP Spotify Track:  Shadowplay  https://open.spotify.com/track/4ZuC5MfGjRQs3pZtPxqMYP?si=ba5d22e63b474e3e   Spotify Playlist:  https://open.spotify.com/user/1298220429/playlist/4gy1wWwypkoFS2lUztvZ44?si=waSq07DBQlq3x9G1_nK0pg   Contact us at:  huntsmanhillpodcast@gmail.com   huntsmanhill.com instagram.com/huntsmanhill https://twitter.com/HuntsmanHill   Our Music manhuntsman:   https://open.spot
