DIGITAL – (PLAYING THE MUSIC OF JOY DIVISION)

Saturday 05th October 2024
Location: Cleeres Bar and Theatre, 28 Parliament Street, Kilkenny
Hailing from the heart of the post-punk revival scene, DIGITAL pays homage to the groundbreaking music of one of the most influential bands of all time – Joy Division. With a fervent dedication to honoring the legacy of the iconic Manchester quartet, DIGITAL delivers dynamic live performances that transport audiences back to the raw, visceral energy of Joy Division’s heyday.
Drawing from the vast expanse of Joy Division’s catalog, DIGITAL’s sets are a sonic journey through the evolution of the band’s sound. From the early post-punk anthems that defined an era to the haunting posthumous releases that continue to captivate listeners, DIGITAL leaves no stone unturned. And with a nod to the band’s transformation to New Order, DIGITAL isn’t afraid to explore the boundaries of Joy Division’s musical legacy.
At the helm of DIGITAL’s sonic voyage is a commitment to authenticity and reverence for the pioneering spirit of Joy Division. Channeling the legendary producer Martin Hannett’s signature blend of rawness, space and warmth, DIGITAL captures the essence of Joy Division’s sound with unparalleled precision. From the pulsating rhythms of “Disorder” to the melancholic strains of “Love Will Tear Us Apart,” DIGITAL brings Joy Division’s music to life with an intensity that’s impossible to ignore.
But DIGITAL isn’t just about nostalgia – it’s about celebrating the enduring power and passion of Joy Division’s music in all its forms. Whether you’re dancing to the hypnotic groove of “She’s Lost Control,” rocking out to the frenetic energy of “Warsaw,” or singing along to the urgency of “Transmission,” DIGITAL invites you to dance, dance, dance, dance, dance to the radio and experience the power and passion of Joy Division’s music firsthand.
