"Komakino" is a June 1980 single by the English post-punk band Joy Division. Like " Dead Souls" and " Transmission", the song was written between their first album Unknown Pleasures (1979) and second, final album Closer (1980).
Release
It was released on Factory Records as a 7 in (180 mm) flexi disc given away in select record shops. [2] 75,000 copies were pressed. The single's B-sides are "Incubation" and "As You Said"; both instrumentals. "Komakino" and "Incubation" appear on the 1988 compilation Substance, and "As You Said" was added in the expanded reissue of the album in 2015 and in the B-side of New Order's Video 586 single. The three tracks are collected on the 4-CD 1997 compilation Heart and Soul.
