Bauhaus vs. Joy Division
idk why I did this
|
Joy Division.
|
This surely isn't a real question.
If Bauhaus wins I'm going to kill myself. Or Ian Curtis. Unless you're talking about Staatliches Bauhaus, in which case I want to change my vote because Joy Division aren't anywhere near as structurally sound. |
Logging in only so I can vote for JD.

Neither, there is a Post-punk band I put above Bauhaus, Joy Division, and Christian Death and it is The Sound!
|
Joy Division is the better band but I listen to Bauhaus a lot more, I guess because I have sentimental attachments to a few of their songs.
|
As much as I fucking love Bauhaus, the Peter Murphy/NiN Joy Division covers are fucking terrible.
|
Bauhaus. Joy Division was ground-breaking, but I just simply enjoy more Bauhaus songs. Also, would Joy Division be remembered the way they are now if they actually ended up touring America?
|
I can't believe Joy Division is winning on THIS forum. Bauhaus had more albums and a way bigger impact. I am not counting New Order I'm looking at strictly Joy Division. Come on.
|
Bauhaus. Who better to introduce "The Hunger?"

What's with the vs.? I DEMAND BOTH.
|
I have to confess I'm one of those people who like Bela Lugosi's Dead and nothing else by the Bauhaus. I think I listened to more in my gawfic days but nothing else stuck.
|
Ceremony is legitimately a very powerful song. Not too much else by Joy Division ever grabbed me.
Just listened to the Reznor / Murphy cover of Dead Souls and was appalled at how terrible it was. I expect so much more from both of those guys. I ironically think the 1994 cover NIN did for the Crow soundtrack was more interesting than the original. Great at seeding ideas that were better executed under New Order. Bauhaus - they have their moments. They did a better Ziggy Stardust than Bowie, some of their other songs work but they had a lot of junk. Both bands are better to think about than actually listen to. |

Even BOWIE said they did a better Ziggy Stardust than him. Apparently he and Murphy are bros. He also does a sick Space Oddity, but nothing beats the original.
|
So I'm the only one here who actually appreciates Joy Division as being totally unparalleled in the subsequent history of popular music?

No. This is not the black text you are looking for...
