In addition to the LP release of "Closer", the non-album singles Transmission, Atmosphere and Love Will Tear Us Apart will be released on the same day with remastered audio from 2020. Since the closure of Factory Records, these singles have not been re-pressed or re-released and now appear on 180 gram vinyl with the original artwork on sturdy heavyweight board. Transmission appears in a sleeve with raised embossing.

Formed in Manchester, Joy Division, Ian Curtis (git, voc), Bernard Sumner (kb), Peter Hook (b) and Stephen Moris (dr), went by the names Stiff Kittens and Warsaw from 1976 onwards, finding their final name in 1978. Within the short period of time until the tragic suicide of singer Ian Curtis on May 18, 1980, they changed the music landscape like no other band. Their influence continues to this day: bands from The Cure to Nirvana to Interpol and The National took their cue from Joy Division's unique sound.
