"Isolation" is a 1980 song appearing on the Manchester post-punk band Joy Division's second album release Closer. The song marches along with a classic Peter Hook bassline and an industrial, synthesized beat by Stephen Morris accompanied by a processed keyboard line by Bernard Sumner and booming Ian Curtis vocal. Midway through the song, Stephen Morris adds a rushing acoustic drum and hi-hat beat, speeding toward the song's dramatic end in what resembles a compact disc skipping followed by a sudden electronic crescendo, closing the song at just under three minutes.
