The effervescent and punky tune has been completed for the first time by Hooky and The Light for this release. The design for the EP is a stunning post-apocalyptic Manchester streetscape by local Manc artist James Chadderton, who works as a 3D and graphic design tutor in the city. Inspired by the nightmarish futuristic visions of movies like The Terminator, Dawn of the Dead, and the BBC’s classic “Threads,“ many assume that James’s artwork depict post nuclear fallout but James prefers to characterize them as “human devoid wastelands where the buildings have been left to decay.“ For more details on James’ work check Press Quotes on Peter Hook and The Light “1102 / 2011“ EP ’Pictures in My Mind’ is a worthy addition to the Joy Division canon. - Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 6 Music “Very effective and if anyone’s going to do a Joy Division song, it might as well be someone who was in them... that song (“Pictures in My Mind“), the unfinished Joy Division song, I actually really like.
