You choice and your comments as to why?

If there's more than 8 albums, I've chosen the first 8. I'll compile all the results for all the bands in one place.

There are way too many of these to post comments in every one. I pick "Closer".

Can someone start a The ColorField poll?

(I picked Closer, but it's a close call.)

Getting these two sprinters into the opening gate proved to be quite difficult , but from the bell to the nose/nose photo finish, it 's 'Unkown Pleasures' who trots into the winners circle.

I like Unknown Pleasures. I like to think you can hear Curtis' psyche disintegrating on the record; it's like a soundtrack to a disturbed, depressed mind.

And "A Means to an End" is my favorite Joy Division song.

[i]Closer[/i]--my fave JD track is "Isolation". But this is a close race anyway.

Closer... and it was a very difficult choice for me to make


This reminds me of my boyfriend and how he says that cold days are ideal for Closer. I haven't seen him in 2 weeks. [:(]
