    Sounds pretty great to my ears! It could be a little more punchy for sure, but it still sounds really good. Definitely glad that I got this, as I really adore this song and the B-side track along with the other version of Love Will Tear Us Apart are great too!

      Love this single, I love it, sounds perfect and a bit punchy. It could be more punchy for my taste.

        Differences between version A1 and B2?
        Hay alguna diferencia en las versiones A1 y B2?

          Perhaps together with 'ATMOSPHERE' the best song Joy Division has ever delivered.

            I think it sounds great, although some bods tell me I’m wasting my money on buying a digital mastering and that this isn’t the real deal because of that.

            Whatever, cowboy. Stick to your Allman Brothers.

              Very nice Optimal pressing. Decent sound. No pops or clicks or what so ever.

                  Love the pressing! This and Love Will Tear Us Apart came to me later than Transmission, and was scared about it, for the Transmission single was warped. But this one is just fine, no warp, no scratches, and after enough cleaning no pops and clicks. The inner sleeve is glossier paper, so you could expect some static straight out of shrink wrap :). Not to mention, it is heavy, so I'm pretty sure it's 180 g.

                    I put a comment on here explaining why I had a sticker on my copy over the track listing on side 2, why has it been deleted? The photo I put is still there......atm
