decades

• closer'ı ve yaşayan joy division tarihini nihayete erdiren şarkı. ebediyen kaybolmuş kalplerin, yorgunluğun, açılan, kapanan sonra da yüzümüze çarpan kapıların bir hikayesi.
  
  here are the young men,
  a weight on their shoulders
  here are the young men,
  well where have they been?
  we knocked on doors
  of hell's darker chambers
  pushed to the limits,
  we dragged ourselves in
  watched from the wings as
  the scenes were replaying
  we saw ourselves now as
  we never had seen
  portrayal of the traumas and degeneration
  the sorrows we suffered
  and never were freed
  where have they been
  where have they been
  where have they been
  where have they been
  
  weary inside, now our hearts lost forever
  can't replace the fear
  or the thrill of the chase
  these rituals showed up the door
  for our wanderings
  opened and shut, then slammed
  in our face
  where have they been
  where have they been
  where have they been
  where have they been ...

  radioheadin yaptığı bir decades coverı var ki başarısız....vokalle anormal derecede oynandığından thom yorke'u tanımak mümkün değil. tek dileğim birinin beni bu radiohead coverı diye kandırmış olması.
• before the law stands a doorkeeper. to this doorkeeper there comes a man from the country and prays for admittance to the law. but the doorkeeper says that he cannot grant admittance at the moment. the man thinks it over and then asks if he will be allowed in later. "it is possible," says the doorkeeper, "but not at the moment." since the gate stands open, as usual, and the doorkeeper steps to one side, the man stoops to peer through the gateway into the interior. observing that, the doorkeeper laughs and says: "if you are so drawn to it, just try to go in despite my veto. but take note: i am powerful. and i am only the least of the doorkeepers. from hall to hall there is one doorkeeper after another, each more powerful than the last. the third doorkeeper is already so terrible that even i cannot bear to look at him." these are difficulties the man from the country has not expected; the law, he thinks, should surely be accessible at all times and to everyone, but as he now takes a closer look at the doorkeeper in his fur coat, with his big sharp nose and long, thin, black tartar beard, he decides that it is better to wait until he gets permission to enter. the doorkeeper gives him a stool and lets him sit down at one side of the door. there he sits for days and years. he makes many attempts to be admitted, and wearies the doorkeeper by his importunity. the doorkeeper frequently has little intervies with him, asking him questions about his home and many other things, but the questions are put indifferently, as great lords^* put them, and always finish with the statement that he cannot be let in yet. the man, who has furnished himself with many things for his journey, sacrifices all he has, however valuable, to bribe the doorkeeper. the doorkeeper accepts everything, but always with the remark: "i am only taking it to keep you from thinking you have omitted anything." during these many years the man fixes his attention almost continuously on the doorkeeper. he forgets the other doorkeepers, and this first one seems to him the sole obstacle preventing access to the law. he curses his bad luck, in his early years boldly and loudly; later, as he grows old, he only grumbles to himself. he becomes childish, and since in his yearlong contemplation of the doorkeeper he has come to know even the fleas in his fur collar, he begs the fleas as well to help him and to change the doorkeeper's mind. at length his eyesight begins to fail, and he does not know whether the world is really darker or whether his eyes are only deceiving him. yet in his darkness he is now aware of a radiance that streams inextinguishably from the gateway of the law. now he has not very long to live. before he dies, all his experiences in these long years gather themselves in his head to one point, a question he has not yet asked the doorkeeper. he waves him nearer, since he can no longer raise his stiffening body. the doorkeeper has to bend low toward him, for the difference in height between them has altered much to the man's disadvantage. "what do you want to know now?" asks the doorkeeper; "you are insatiable." "everyone strives to reach the law," says the man, "so how does it happen that for all these many years no one but myself has ever begged for admittance?" the doorkeeper recognizes that the man has reached his end, and, to let his failing senses catch the words, roars in his ear: "no one else could ever be admitted here, since this gate was made only for you. i am now going to shut it."

• love like blood isimli dandik gothic grubun da coverladigi sarki. tot gibi onlarinki de rezalet. beceremiyorsaniz yapmayin kardesim.
• poeta negra'nın hayrına mum diktiren gruplarından bir digeri daha. kapağında mustang olduğundan şüphelendiğim the first adındaki albümleriyle melodic ve groovy, electro-pop act'lere selam etmiştir. kraftwerk, skanform, miss kittin sevenlerin reçetesine vitamin osun diye yazıyorlar.

• joy divisiondan tam bir bad trip şarkısı. insanın ister istemez neşesini kaçıran negatif moda sokan bir şarkı. ian curtis in bu albumden^* sonra intihar etmesine şaşmamalı.
• arkasından dinlenmemesi gereken bir diğer hasar şarkı ise:
