I suspect they commissioned clips for the whole album a while ago. So it's too late to cancel them, even if they're not popular. Put it in the "it seemed like a good idea at the time" category.
@Dave Sisson I have no clue how it would’ve seem like a “good idea at the time” Especially surrounding the well known history around Joy Division and their outcome. And the few music videos they made as well. It was clear as day that most people would think these videos are ridiculous.
Wow I just recently started listening to Joy Division and I can see how they influenced bands that came after them..especially the Pixies. The melodic, bleak and dreary guitar and jumpy bass lines are so catchy.
It's sad you all forget that it is Kevin Cummins who is the ultimate Joy Division photographer. Anton Corbijn did a nice job for "Atmosphere" and earlier JD photos, but he is not their ultimate photographer... and "Control" already looked like Joy Division were some indie kids from the 90s. Sorry. And yes, this "reimagined" video series is just getting worse and worse. A total waste of time, needless to say how pointlessly pretentious it all is.
Guys please, stop it, can’t you see we, people that have been fans our whole lives, are absolutely hating it? That it has nothing to do with Joy Division? Honestly please stop. I mean, respect the fans please.
JAJAJAJJAJAJJAJ ES VERDAD, solo hizo falta la marca y ya. Que sad esto, hubiera preferido cortometrajes de series bien góticas o fotos y videos de Curtis bailando para estas canciones; la canción de Disorder le hicieron un video de fan y quedo monstruoso.
Let's agree this was a horrible idea, painfully endure the other 5 videos coming and NOT REPEAT THE MISTAKE next year, for the Closer reissue, ok guys?
I'm 72 I was wearing a type 0 negative t shirt at the gym and saw this young lady wearing a "unknown pleasures "shirt she said her mother gave her ...been listening to their music all night. Excellent find.
Director to actor: “Spin around a lot and do a few punches and karate kicks.. That’s it, baby!” Director to editor: “Hold unnecessarily long on that shot” Editor: “Which one?” Director: “All of them... Oh and if you’ve got a spare few minutes, flash some of the words on screen in a garish font. It will make it seem more arty and s**t...” Editor: “k... I’ve done that” Director: “It’s a wrap! Put it on TouTube!!”
Perhaps when they decide to desecrate Shadowplay they can feature Theresa May running through a field of wheat as that will have no connection nor make any sense either!
Oh my God! These "reimagined" videos are utterly disgusting. I don't tend to rant in comment sections, but I can't help myself after watching these consistently terrible videos. They are so shallow and pretentious that they don't even touch on the depth of Joy Division's songs. I wish they would just scrap the project, but they won't because they've already spent the money, I'm sure. Too bad they didn't take a different approach by involving the fans who have supported them for 40+ years. AFI had a brilliant idea for their "A Deep Slow Panic" video. They asked fans to submit 30-second clips showing their interpretations of certain themes - loss of self, anxiety, and collapse. From these submissions, they took the best/most appropriate clips and created the video for the song. The fans got to show what the song and band mean to them, and they got to feel a part of something they love. It was cool to see the clips that actually made it into the video and also the ones that didn't. All of the clips were so creative and well done. There are so many amazingly talented people in this world. Maybe some JD fans can get together and collaborate on some fan-made "reimagined" videos. I'm sure they would get a better reception than these horrible official videos.
When I think about UP, I see a man at the edge of an abyss crying full power his swan song to let other people know what it feels like to be this close to the end, in the most honest way. Hope to see a little bit of this in the video dedicated to NDF at least...
Parece que le hubieran dicho a un puñado de estudiantes de diseño artes visuales que hicieran un video de cada canción de unknow pleasures, entonces se fueron de juerga todo el semestre y el último fin de semana se pusieron a hacer todos los videos lo más random posibles y aquí están ja ja ja ja ja ja ja
Yo pensaba lo mismo. El día anterior a entregar el proyecto y diciendo en la cena.... Que tenía que hacer yo mañana??? Osssstiaaa el video. Tal como me pasó a mi alguna vez en mi época estudiantil jeje.
*Clarity is King* "The Most High" In relationships, or in war, to be conquered is to lose one’s clarity or grasp of the moment. This is the true nature of any social situation.

Well I’ll tell you one thing I don’t care how much it costs I am buying that Joy Division Candidate Shampoo; just look at how her hair shinned and was so bouncy!
"Joy division" For her pleasure only, a special blend of hair treatment developed by the worlds leading scientific minds in follicle empowerment therapy. Brought to you by the same people who created depression. "joy division a candidate for Excellence" (That read darker then I intended )
These directors just don't get it, do they? This album deserves better than a shampoo commercial. When it's Closer's 40th anniversary please do a better job, that album especially doesn't deserve this treatment.
Watching this video is like witnessing a fault with a television. The TV is showing the pictures from BBC1 while simultaneously playing the sound from BBC2. The two have absolutely no connection with each other at all. A total car crash.
Honestly, the only person who should have been allowed to do new videos for Joy Division is Anton Corbin. He understands their style, their meaning, their aesthetic... This has been really a bad idea and really poorly executed.
I have a good video idea for this. It's just a black screen. Very occasionally there may be something, like a shard of glass catching some dusk light, just for a couple of seconds. The rest yeah just pitch black.

*Defining the Secret Noble Cause* Why are revenge and justice so intertwined with humanity and society? What is the true underlying cause of revenge? After careful consideration one may begin to unravel to the true underlying cause of justice and revenge. Revenge is actually a simple matter. Revenge has to do with the delicate balance of life within the sustainability of nature. This means revenge is about the disruption of wealth and information in both the individual and society as a whole. When wealth and the balance of living (which means the daily provisions and necessities that require labor and thought) in either is disrupted it sparks and requires the act of revenge which is justice. This is the true secret seed of all governmental institutions. -Francis Blake
*What is violence, really?* The awful truth is that violence is mostly an attribute of the have-nots. Wealth is not always made of gold and silver. It is the male prerogative to own the other male. It is also inherent in the construction of humanity to seek a higher level in the overall hierarchy. This is done through the casting of the spirit through the unseen spectrums which causes the possession of the other. This is how the priest or warlock proclaims his place and goes to battle. Violence is the substantiation of those with lesser opportunities. By playing the card of death he has less to lose and more to gain than the elite. A rich man only plays defense because the world is his. He has no reason for assault except , of course, when his position is challenged or under threat, but instead is constantly on guard. -A. Cudwell
There a new video coming up today in like two hours or so but i'm not looking forward to it.. these videos has been a MAJOR disappointment & has barely anything to to with the actual song & meaning beind them. Complete garbage
Head & Shoulders
nope, Pantene.
...one will burn...
You tá de brincation with me, cara?
I can not believe they keep doing this.

Me too !!
Mell M.S. these videos are beyond stupid. 😂 and so boring, plus they make 0 sense.
I can't believe you've commited suicide
Imagine people who don't know joy division and who discover joy with that clip 😭
said no one
Tom sab for real.
Literally me today.
Noooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s very likely because this version of the album is now the one that comes on if you type in unknown pleasures into yt
Wow I just recently started listening to Joy Division and I can see how they influenced bands that came after them..especially the Pixies. The melodic, bleak and dreary guitar and jumpy bass lines are so catchy.
Literally so many bands owe their sound to this album, it's insane
so true im a massive Pixies fan and only just started listening to Joy Division and they sounds so familiar
Candidate: Dark, foreboding post-punk track
Director: You KNOW I think we should shoot A FUCKING MAXI-PAD COMMERCIAL
😄👌🏻
I can see life as a JD fan watching this getting harder. So sad this sensation, i can't see the videos getting better.
I see what you did there.
Love
Life
Makes you feel
Joy Division music.
Nice one.
What a nice series of music videos
...said no one ever
The Insight one (while incongruous with the song) had a cool concept
At this point just ask Anton Corbijn to redo all the videos.
That would be the only way they could redeem any part of this project.
agree!!!
anton corbijn for up and peter saville for closer
It's sad you all forget that it is Kevin Cummins who is the ultimate Joy Division photographer.

The new H&M advertisement has some really nice music.
I don't think the person who is directing these ever heard of Joy Division until they were given this project
This literally looks like a shampoo commercial

I thought the same lmfao
It's not sham poo. It's real poo.
Makes me want to buy a shampoo then
Hahaha agree
Post-punk shampoo
Verdade verdadeira , tá parecendo comercial da Elseve loreal .
Haha you beat me to it
XD
can anyone pmo w similar stuff w post punk
😂😂😂
One of the most provocative songs ever
This new Pantene commercial is kinda depressing...
My exact thoughts.
😂
Lol
Lmao

I really like this video, just close my eyes.
one of their best songs deserved a better video

I am 72 been listening to JD since the 70z and still listening to them they are never out of date… still relevant today🎉🎉🎉party on Wayne!!!

their sound is so unique
This is why we can't have nice things
Amen to that
The dynamics in the video

I cant imagine Peter, Bernard and Stephen would actually like this. They should all become pals again and do something proper for UP40.
they probably thought integrating the band members’ names on the song title was so clever

Thank you for sharing these videos, @Da Kowboy! They are immensely better than the reimagined fails.
As someone who heard John Peel play the first Joy Division singles on the radio, this is a travesty.
Ginger girl does karate then plays with some curtains
That's some funny a&& $h!+
On the plus side, ginger in white does look nice.
A woman shaking his head. I can't believe this has been taken seriously.
best vid ever..... oh i was watching the wrong one
I like that the music has been remastered so sounds better up loud on my stereo. That's about it.
i didn’t know that joy division provided music for shampoo commercials!
Even UA-cam thinks this is about hair products - afterwards I got the Dyson airwave ad.
When I think about UP, I see a man at the edge of an abyss crying full power his swan song to let other people know what it feels like to be this close to the end, in the most honest way.
Hope to see a little bit of this in the video dedicated to NDF at least...
Just one word for this video : sacrilege. Who can's forbide this?
Another seriously off the mark addition to the woeful project that is Re-imagined

Sì ma sti video sono schifosi
Who on earth thought this was appropriate? They obviously never listerned to the track!
La letra en la descripción evita que mires el fatal video y disfrutes la música.

No. Not the texts suddenly appearing in different colors and some is not even synchronized with the vocals 😭
Joy Division!
I AM TRIGGERED
stoooop! pleeeeasee!!
Hire Hideo Kojima for Closer, please. That's not a joke.
Que magnífico... 🧐
You're making baby Jesus cry. Stop it.
Alguien detenga esta masacre, no hagan disorder porfavor... Pobre Curtis :(
Yo también pienso que ya es suficiente 😭 curtis dónde quiera que estés trata de ignorar esto x favor 😩🖤
Well I’ll tell you one thing I don’t care how much it costs I am buying that Joy Division Candidate Shampoo; just look at how her hair shinned and was so bouncy!
Any proper JD fan could do a better job with a camera phone and windows movie maker....whoever made this, give up and get a proper job .
This may be the worst video yet. It's so disconnected with Joy Division's music it's staggering.
not really. i like it and i'm a die in the wool joy division fan.

Finding it hard to listen know all that I know about Ian Curtis. Just heart wrenching
I'm young I wasn't born when this album came out but even I'm like wtf is this video?
the video looks nice with the music of Miley Cyrus in the background
funny that. I used to work at a video store and would play joy division over Miley Cyrus movies. Worked quite well.
These directors just don't get it, do they? This album deserves better than a shampoo commercial.
When it's Closer's 40th anniversary please do a better job, that album especially doesn't deserve this treatment.
