For example, a band like Joy Division. Two masterpiece albums in the form of Unknown Pleasures and Closer, and the untimely death of Ian Curtis cut it all short. They were even heading into the direction that New Order eventually went in, and it would have been interesting to see what Ian Curtis would have done if they fully made the leap into electronic music while he was still alive.
Re-listening to their albums got me through some angsty sleepless nights in the first lockdown. I love his voice. And I think he would have carried on making great music even if it wasn’t with Morphine.
