** While the band's stateside commercial success was limited, Joy Division had a cult following almost immediately in America coming off [[DeadArtistsAreBetter the notoriety of Ian Curtis' suicide]], becoming a posthumous critical favorite and receiving coverage in prestigious publications like ''The New York Times'' and ''Magazine/RollingStone''. ''Closer'' and "Love Will Tear Us Apart" made ''The Village Voice'' 1980 [[https://www.robertchristgau.com/xg/pnj/pjres80.php Pazz & Jop Critic's poll]] as imports before their official U.S. releases the following year, as did "Atmosphere", which ''did'' have a U.S. release. "Love Will Tear Us Apart" also charted on Billboard's ''disco chart'', of all places. (New wave was mostly heard stateside in dance clubs at the time.) The band would prove a major influence on AlternativeRock on the other side of UsefulNotes/ThePond throughout the decade and beyond, with "Love Will Tear Us Apart" an airplay staple on CollegeRadio and early commercial alternative stations through the '80s.

*** More recently, the band has gained a following among African-Americans, especially rappers. Why? Well, it could be because of New Order's popularity in the black community leading to fans checking out the previous incarnation.
