Joy Division's First-Ever Official Live Collection!
16 Full Audio Concert Recordings Across 14 CDs!
Over 2.5 Hours of Live Video on 2 DVDs!
Includes 2 Previously Unreleased Shows + 3 Previously Unheard Recordings!

Years in the making, this landmark release from one of the most seminal bands of our time, brings together audio from 16 live performances across 14 CDs, meticulously sourced from audience recorded cassettes, soundboard tapes and broadcast recordings, all mastered at Abbey Road Studios.

Eternal (Live) documents some of Joy Division's most significant live performances of their career, including two previously unreleased shows, Hope & Anchor and Acklam Hall, and three previously unheard recordings, The Factory, Lyceum, Moonlight Club (2nd April). It also features the band's final live performance, at High Hall Birmingham in 1980, where they played "Ceremony" for the first and last time on stage.

There are two DVDs featuring over 2hrs 30mins of live shows, including the previously unseen Plan K, Brussels concert and two concerts and soundcheck from the Apollo Theatre, Manchester that have only been partially released on VHS (in 1982) and a brand new edit of Joy Division – A Malcolm Whitehead Film.

Housed in a 12" x 12" lift-off lid box with artwork by Warren Jackson, Peter Saville, Howard Wakefield and Brett Wickens, the cover photography is Sirius Through a Defocused Telescope, 2023 by Wolfgang Tillmans.

Eternal (Live) is completed by a 16-page booklet, including personal notes by Simon Armitage and photography by, amongst others, Anton Corbijn and Kevin Cummins.
