That's right, Hot 8 Brass Band have put their raucous horns to Joy Division's classic song, and it's just as funky as you'd expect. It's the same magic formula they brought to Marvin Gaye's 'Sexual Healing' in 2012, with stomping beats, lip-splitting trumpet solos and plenty of bounce from the sousaphone. 

Formed over twenty years ago, the group first started playing together in high school, and despite numerous tragic setbacks have become one the foremost ambassadors of New Orleans' unique style of street jazz, no small part thanks to their roof-raising live performances.

Watch the video for their new single 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' below.

Hot 8 Brass Band announce their European tour today, which will take place Jan 25 - Feb 18.
