Simple Minds - Life in a Day (1979)

He recalled at the time, "as we were about to drive up to Scotland, someone gave me a cassette of Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division... and I thought, we've completely blown it."—ruing that their live material had sounded more like Velvet Underground and less like the Boomtown Rats.[9]

Is that Hipgnosis design on the cover? 
No, somebody called Carole Moss it seems.

It does sound quite early '80s.
Like from a film with Molly Ringworm in.
