Was he autistic?
Ian Curtis
probably
He was bipolar.
A dual of personalities, they kept calling him
He was a total madman who actually did it
Where would Joy Division have taken their sound if he didn't kill himself?
probably in the same direction as new order
ian curtis is the nickelback of dead pop icons
new order like the other guy said followed by experimental stuff like talk talk did
This is possible but it's also quite likely that his epilepsy medication gave him mood swings similar to bipolar disorder
Ian would have quit and teamed up with Genesis P-Orridge to make avant-garde music, rest would've formed New Order anyway. I read that that was the plan somewhere.
>discover musician
>enjoying their music, look them up and see they've been dead for a while
>find out they committed suicide
why does this always happen, makes me sad
by today's standards, yes. autism/spectrum disorders are your generations "ADHD"
peculiar human characteristics are now disorders
but, no... he wasn't autistic
autistic people don't sing in fucking rock bands
you guys are fucking pathetic for insulting dead superstars
like what you get out of this huh? he contributed more to music than any of you faggots ever will, you should be licking his feet for the things he did instead of acting like privileged spoiled pussies over having tons of pirated music in youtube to complain about
He was artistic
...
was he gay?
>I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A GUY TO COME AND TAKE ME BY THE HAND
>COULD THESE SENSATIONS MAKE ME FEEL THE PLEASURES OF ANOTHER MAN
What do you think?
I don't think so, he was married and had a daughter and didn't really show any signs of it.
was he handicapped?
This and he was 'cheating' on Deborah with another women.
The multitude of guitars and keyboard instruments blend together to create this kinda soupy colossus wall of doom, and forgive the comparison but to me '91-era Swans sounded like Joy Division being taken to the next logical level.
was he a qt?
Yes
good
saw Control yesterday, would recommend if you like JD and want to know more about Ian
>autistic people don't sing in fucking rock bands
epliepsy meds dont cause mood swings wtf are you on about. Half of them to this day can be prescriped as mood stabilizers too. And back in the 70s they were probably cranking him full of barbituates, which yknow, are basically horse tranquilizer.
No he was artistic
What about anti-depressants? From what I've read, he was also clinically depressed.
