I don't think they're rotten (but New Order are fucking trite), I just don't know why they are so revered. I can't see any poetry in Curtis' lyrics (it's meant to be there), and that insipid fucking bass player just makes my flesh crawl.
I do like two or three of their tunes, but the way their fans react to even suggesting they do mere 'tunes' makes me think oh fuck it. WTF am I missing out on?
Unknown Pleasures then. And Closer. Really, really.

Nah, I've always struggled with Joy Division too matey, you're not alone.
Anyone else think Elvis Costello is rubbish? :-)
