If you listen to really early New Order, stuff--particularly Movement, but including Ceremony, Everything's Gone Green, etc....you can hear the Joy Division influence. Still very dark musically, surpressed vocals, and very underproduced.
Correct. Ceremony was actually written by Curtis before he died. My understanding was that it was going to be the title track of the album they had in the works. (I wonder if I actually taught you something there.)
