Advantages: A good introduction to the band

Disadvantages: Misses some less known classics

A Best Of of one of the best bands Britain has ever produced would surely be the best album of all time. This album collects together most of the bands most successful songs and dsiplays the band as quite a heavy sounding one, however the selection of tracks does not perhaps give anything more to a fan of the band. As an introduction to Joy Division and the work of Ian Curtis, this collection does alot more than Substance or Still, which are more difficult to unlock immediately than this collection of atmospheric tracks. The album includes the amazing Love Will Tear Us Apart, one of the best songs ever, Transmission and Disorder.

If you have never listened to Joy Division past Love Will Tear Us Apart before then this is the perfect album for you. Although still a worthy purchase for fans of the band Substance and Still collect Joy Divisions finer more emotional moments more successfully than this album.

Summary: Their most successful is here, their true best is elsewhere
