The stuff that'd be 'like Joy Division' would be their first album, 'The Guilty have no Pride'. It was a bit earlier than '85, and was OK, I suppose. 'Nada!' came out in 1985, and I gave it a spin a few months ago, and wondered how the hell I ever liked it so much. It seemed pretty weak and dreary. However, if it's the martial stuff you're after, then I'd suggest the work w/ Albin Julius from the late '90s - 'Take Care and Control' and 'Operation Hummingbird'. Julius more or less did the music, and so a couple of the tracks sometimes cropped at Der Blutharsch live shows, and on live albums. It's a pity both bands have gone off the boil since then. DIJ's 'All Pigs Must Die', and the couple he did w/ Boyd Rice were pure horse manure, and I've not bothered with 'em since, at all.
I would, all the same, recommend 'But, What Ends When The Symbols Shatter?'. It is guitar-based and folky, but it's well done and a real 'grower'.
Mind you, I sometimes feel DIJ's 'big name' stems as much from the image and 'aura' around the group, as it does from the musical merits - or otherwise - of their work. But, it's like I say about a lot of neo-folk: I would be broadly sympathetic towards it, but often find the music a bit insubstantial.
