LINE Blend's graphics = Joy Division Unknown Pleasures

[Emma_Watson]

Anyone else notice this?

Is joy division that mainstream these days?

Also - have the topsheet artists credited their design to the album artwork?

....duh

not the first or the last time it'll be slapped on a product. Did a quick google search of other examples and this 3D print is kinda cool

Are you seriously JUST noticing this...?! And no, Joy Div is not popular, but thats such an iconic design that most people know it has something to do with 80's pop punk music.. Its obviously supposed to look like the album art

haha I actually I am because I just saw these graphics.

Huge Joy fan - I just believe credit is due to band... Couldn't find a single word from LINE in tribute to them.

Joy Division lifted that image from a text book. Its a graph, not original art for the album.

If you go to the Blend's page, Line makes it pretty clear where they got the graphic from

you could even make the argument that it is more original since they worked in the ape face instead of copy pasting the graph.

Here's a pretty interesting article if you're interested in more history on the graphic:

my bad - i am now informed.

I believe without any commentary from LINE would suggest plagiarism - which in any other venue is v bad.
