[j.h]

NOT THE PEOPLE GENUINELY BELIEVING THIS IS TRUE I 😭

“He hung himself. *Dead* I don’t really care.”

Joy Division fans trying to understand irony:

[billhawk]

Everybody is concerned about his comments on Ian Curtis, but the leaked audio of Gira at the beginning of the video is much more shocking

[ColombianThunder]

If Michael Gira saw this i feel like he'd have an aneurysm and yell really loud, stopping it from doing any damage

[writerconsidered]

I have no idea who any of these people are. I hate corrupt politicians.

[vertyisprobablydead]

i cannot believe that the michael gira would ever say this my heart is broken 😔

[perks]

Apparently hate can tear you apart too

[sstaners]

The fact that Ian Curtis was just 23 years old when he died is what gets me.

[userruzik]

Guys it’s edited. If he hated Joy Division, he wouldn’t have done a cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart

[mikewilson]

This looks like it was heavily edited. A lot of chopped up bits.

"they're just overrated, you know? they had that one song candidate - that one was alright - but i really couldn't give a shit about the rest."
-michael gira on unknown pleasures

[exquisitecorpse__]

Why aren't people getting the joke?

[ApocalypseMoose]

this is so sad

alexa, play "i remember nothing"

[je]

funny but we all know that isn't true! he was only stating that he didn't pull that song to be a cover for sentimental reasons, just that he liked it, but most likely was a fan of joy division to some degree prior to his formation of Swans. But then again, who really knows.

[unhelpfulrevelations]

I can't believe it how can he do this

[tangibleblockofwisdom]

*edit : have you heard of our lord and Slavoj Zijek?

[ericbryant]

tragic the guy had epilepsy I like both artist though
