We're slackers...

We don't update The P5 every day like we used to. So when we slack off, just use the search box up there on the right. Yeah, the red box, that's it. Search The P5 Archives. You'll be glad you did.

Joy Division - Atmosphere

|

On this date in 1980, Joy Division released their third U.K. single, "Atmosphere". It was backed by "She's Lost Control". A different version of The B side appeared on their debut album, Unknown Pleasures. The A side did not appear on either of their studio albums. Another version of the single had a B side of "Dead Souls", another non-LP track. Of course, the Manchester, U.K. post-punk band effectively ended when lead singer Ian Curtis hung himself on May 18, 1980. The remaining members of the band formed New Order.
