A devastating couplet is every pop star’s secret weapon. Whether it’s Morrissey grumbling about having to go to bed with nothing but a Sylvia Plath anthology for warmth or Kate Bush crooning sweet nothings-that-are-actually-dark-somethings lyrics illuminate and elevate a song. Words bring clarity and drama, opening a secret passage to an artist’s internal life.

Hot 8 Brass Band add a funky swagger to Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart” in the New Orleans group’s new version of the 1980 post-punk song. The octet adapt the original’s melancholy vocal melody and churning bass line into punctuated horn blasts and rumbling tuba.
The band paired the song with a New Orleans-set video that reflects on heartbreak and romance. The clip shows the musicians and various strangers in motel rooms and apartments – scenes filled with dancing, arguments, sex and the ironing of sheet music. The...
