video of the week — radiohead cover “ceremony”
I’m sure a lot of you saw this on Friday. I actually didn’t see it until over the weekend — I guess that I was too busy being stoked about the My Bloody Valentine news. Pretty rad when one of your favorite bands cover your favorite Joy Division/New Order song. Doesn’t happen everyday.
Originally written by Ian Curtis, the song was released as New Order’s first single in 1981 after Curtis’ death, but first appeared on Joy Division’s Still album. Download the mp3 below.
