Despite only officially releasing two albums together in their time as a band – 1979’s Unknown Pleasures and 1980’s Closer – it’s not hyperbolic to state that Post-punk pioneers Joy Division are one of the most influential bands of all time.

Since their emergence in the late 1970s, plenty of bands have tried to beg, borrow and steal from their distinctive sonic template with varying degrees of success. Here, five new bands who actually nail it.
