Unknown Pleasures is the debut studio album by English rock band Joy Division, released on 15 June 1979 by Factory Records. The album was recorded and mixed over three successive weekends at Stockport's Strawberry Studios in April 1979, and was produced by Martin Hannett, who incorporated a number of unconventional production techniques into the group's sound. The cover artwork was designed by artist Peter Saville, using a data plot of signals from a radio pulsar.

Released June 15, 1979. Unknown Pleasures Tracklist. About Unknown Pleasures. One of the finest post-punk albums ever crafted. With light shifting disco beats wedded to Ian Curtis' wrenching baritone equipped lustful basslines and awe-inspiring guitar riffs, matched with the angst and depression of 1970s Manchester. And with subject matters stretching from Hitler to epileptic victims, horrifying insect landscapes and shadowed philosophical love affairs. Unknown Pleasures Q&A.

This is an original 1979 LP pressing manufactured in Italy. This copy still has its original shrinkwrap. These has been reasonably carefully opened Joy division unknown pleasures t shirt.
The mysterious cover of Joy Division‘s 1979 debut Unknown Pleasures – a black-and-white visualization of pulsar data that looked like digital mountain peaks – is the subject of a new, in-depth Scientific American article. The magazine traced the origins of the computer-generated illustration to its first publication around 1970.
The quantum leap from the earliest thrashy singles to Unknown Pleasures can be heard through every note, with Martin Hannett's deservedly famous production - emphasizing space in the most revelatory way since the dawn of dub - as much a hallmark as the music itself.
