Morning Buzz: Joy Division, Manchester Orchestra, Senses Fail

:: Spin has some rare Joy Division photos, all of which feature Ian Curtis looking weird/awkward/creepy. But what would you expect? In addition to just being Ian Curtis, dude was also British…

:: Looks like the new Manchester Orchestra album will be called Simple Math.

:: Pretty obvious that Orange Rhyming Dictionary from Jets to Brazil is a great album. Buddy Nielsen of Senses Fail agrees liked it so much that he stole his copy from an ex-girlfriend.

:: Bad bands covering bad songs make Sean something something.

:: Who better to cover the CMJ Music Marathon than a college student?

:: I had no idea Jimmy Eat World drummer Zach Lind, an avid blogger and Arizona Cardinals fan, was writing about football for ESPN. But he is.

:: Speaking of football, you might remember Shawn Andrews as a once-promising guard for the Philadelphia Eagles who got hissy because his 10-year contract wasn’t lucrative enough. However, you might not remember him as a music producer.
