After his death, Saville panicked, thinking people would assume it was a tasteless marketing stunt. But Factory Records moved forward, embracing the eerie coincidence. The result is one of the most haunting album covers in music history, made even more powerful by how accidental it all was. https://www.thatericalper.com/2025/05/24/5-surprising-facts-about-joy-divisions-closer", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" } ] }
