Episode 41: Joy Division's Closer

In the latest episode of the show, the dads dig into Joy Division's Closer. Released in the summer of 1980, the album was the final studio album by the Manchester, English rock band. If you didn't know, the album has been considered the "crown jewel" of post-punk, as frontman Ian Curtis reveals an introspective look at his life prior to his untimely death. It's dark, claustrophobic, and hauntingly beautiful as Curtis invites the listener into his word. It's what Hot Topic wishes it was. Socks are optional.
