Sounds great……but only if you have no comparison. I tested it against the Italian 1st which beats this one in every aspect.
And it’s only the Italian first, wouldn’t be surprised the UK first sound even better. -
This is perfection, not a single pop, soundstage is room filling, I recommend changing the inner sleeve couse it's not top quality. 180g it's solid plays solid and you'll never regret it. -

Wow. Incredible, especially with headphones. If I was to try to select two tracks that represent both the haunting atmospherics and driving rhythm that is Joy Division...these would be the two. And here they are. Rarely find 12" singles worth the effort, but in this case... -
Edited one year agoSide B is pressed considerably off-center. Side A is correct. All that aside, this pressing sounds quite terrific. -

Hi, I have the record with white labels, is it the same edition ? -
Stunning version of She's Lost Control, different from the album. More electronic and an additional verse as bonus. One of the last recordings they made before Ian Curtis' suicide. Very special. Love it

Mi copia suena bien, una buen remasterizado, gran dinámica,disco plano y silencioso -
My US copy is (also) BLACK vinyl - doesn't seem to have ANY "+" etched on A-side but had 2 "+" on the B-side with 4 dots on the 2nd one. -
I have this. The 'dark red vinyl' is not correct (I have a Special AKA "Gangsters" which is like that but I have had it explained to me that it is a lack of colourant in the vinyl mix rather than deliberate). I would add that the labels are creamy white with olive lettering
-
the best cut JD record. (no need for more words)
