180G VINYL RE-ISSUE
Release Date: 17th July 2020
The infamous second and last album from the Manchester post-punk band, which was posthumously released just months after the suicide of lead singer Ian Curtis. Closer is still as poignant as it was then and has now been remastered for an even better listening experience.
"A 40th anniversary edition of sophomore album Closer pressed on crystal clear vinyl. Closer, the group's second and final album arrived the year after their debut in July 1980 on Factory Records, following Ian Curtis' death two months earlier. Its dark and melancholy tones earned rave reviews for songs like Isolation and Heart and Soul. Closer, like Unknown Pleasures was produced by Martin Hannett."
