Not saying Closer is bad, but I just like Unknown Pleasure a bit more...

Also, this was arguably more influential as well.

I'll agree with you on the influential part, but for me the songwriting on closer is more focused and

sophisticated, and the production hasn't dated as badly either

I really don't have a problem with the production actually... The two albums have quite different production and both fit well with the style of the particular album at hand.

I find this album sounds a bit weak and lacking in punch nowadays. She's Lost Control is a classic though

it captures the mood really well, I just think it's dated a bit

yeah i see how someone could feel that way, but this album is 32 years old so of course it'll sound a tad bit dated in some ways. personally i think the production holds up really well, i think it's aged nicely

I still think this is the prime example of how post-punk production should be done.

I think closer achieves a similar sound in terms of mood while still retaining more of a powerful,

heavier feel which gives the music more impact
