This is the crisis I knew had to come

Destroying the balance I'd kept

Turning around to the next set of lives

Wondering what will come next

The genuine soundtrack to killing yourself

Absolute classic. Nothing else comes anywhere remotely near to it.

This might be a hot take but I fuck with the second half of this much more than the first

I think most of us feel the same way, who wouldn't like to fuck with heart & soul 24 hrs/day for decades across eternity?

Second half is goated. Wiki says that isolation, heart and soul, the eternal, and decades (the best songs) were all written post 1980 and the others were written before. Can only imagine what was going on in that recording room

tough call

it's funny that I heard Therapy?'s version of Isolation a bit earlier, didn't recognize back then that it's a cover (an excellent one btw)

Speaking of insanely good drummers Stephen Morris is right up there with the very best. Doesn’t seem to get mentioned much nowadays.

That's absolutely true, but it never occurred to me that he didn't get much credit. JD was almost as much about the drums (and Hannett's production thereof) as about Curtis' lyrics, vocal delivery and the myth surrounding his persona. Plus Hooky's distinctive style ofc.

In addition, Morris' role was critical in the transition of NO's sound from gloomy post-punk to the dancefloor-friendly electronica they embraced from "Power, Corruption & Lies" and onwards. What a contribution to the sound of the 80s!
