A 22 page 'anniversary special' on Joy Division in the new issue of Q - the article is OK but I thought it seemed a little bit ghoulish deciding to devote so many pages because of the 35th anniversary of Ian's death, I don't want JD (and NO) to become the sort of band like the Beatles or the Stones where magazines like Mojo and Uncut decide to wheel out 'tributes' every now and then just because of some anniversary or other and they hope that the band's fan-base will prop up their sales.

Sigh. Q, Uncut, Mojo etc do these 20+ page specials on JD every 5 years or so.What on earth can they write about or dig up they haven't gone over already? It really is to cash in.
