Joy Division was one of the most definitive goth rock bands of all time. While commercially unsuccessful in the United States they were phenomenal in Europe. They have influenced numerous bands including modern indie bands. The Wombats did a song called Let's Dance to Joy Division. The Killers covered their song Shadowplay. They were nominated for the Hall of Fame as a co-candidate with New Order, which was formed out of former members of Joy Division after frontman Ian Curtis committed suicide. They were not chosen.
