'This book will delight both New Order-ites and general rock
readers' Mojo A ROLLICKING, NO-HOLDS-BARRED ACCOUNT OF NEW ORDER'S
ENTIRE HISTORY. Two acclaimed albums and an upcoming US tour - Joy
Division had the world at their feet. Then, on the eve of that
tour, the band's troubled lead singer, Ian Curtis, killed himself.
The next time they got together, they were a new band. That band
was New Order - their label was Factory Records, their club The
Hacienda. Their distinctive sound paved the way for the dance music
explosion that followed, earning them the reputation as one of the
most influential bands of their generation, and changing the course
of popular music. Following on from his bestselling titles The
Hacienda and Unknown Pleasures, Peter Hook has written a
rollicking, no-holds-barred account of the band's entire history.
Substance is packed with never-before-seen detail, discographies
and technical information. This is possibly the most entertaining
memoir ever written by a British musician. 'There are stories here
that make Ozzy Osbourne looks like Mother Teresa' Sunday Express 'A
rollicking read' Record Collector 'Rock writing rarely tells us
properly what a band treading water or in slow decline feels like
from the inside. Hook does so memorably' Guardian 'As mammoth and
downright idiotic as the band deserves ... something hilariously
daft happens on nearly all of Substance's 750 pages' Classic Pop
