Joy Division
@joydivision
The British group Joy Division wrote and recorded 43 songs and played over 120 shows in just 29 months between 1978 and 1980.
On this day 45 years ago, Love Will Tear Us Apart was released. In 2002, @NME named the song as the greatest single of all time, while @RollingStone named it one of the 500 greatest songs ever in 2004, 2010, and 2021.
