New Order are an English rock band formed in Salford in 1980 by vocalist and guitarist Bernard Sumner, bassist Peter Hook, and drummer Stephen Morris. Their fusion of post-punk, electronic, and dance music made them one of the most acclaimed and influential bands of the 1980s. The band formed after the disbanding of their previous band, Joy Division, following the suicide of lead singer, Ian Curtis. Keyboardist Gillian Gilbert joined the band later that year. They became the flagship band for the Manchester-based independent record label Factory Records and its nightclub, The Haçienda. They worked in long-term collaboration with graphic designer Peter Saville on their album covers. While the band's early years were initially overshadowed by the legacy of Joy Division, their experience in the early 1980s New York club scene led them to increasingly incorporate dance rhythms and electronic instrumentation into their work. Their 1983 hit "Blue Monday" became the best-selling 12-inch single of all time and a popular club track. In the 1980s, they released several successful albums such as Power, Corruption & Lies (1983), Technique (1989), and the singles compilation Substance (1987). The band disbanded in 1993 to focus on individual projects before reuniting in 1998. Since then, New Order has gone through various hiatuses and changes in personnel, most notably the departure of Hook in 2007 due to personal disputes with the other members. In 2015, they released their tenth studio album, Music Complete. In 2023, both Joy Division and New Order were nominated as one act for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
