Description
Joy Division changed the face of music with their unique sound. Inspired by punk's attitude and energy, Peter Hook and Bernard Sumner formed a band that continues to influence popular music today. With some cobbled together instruments and a clapped out old van, four young lads from Manchester and Salford shared a vision and created their own distinct sound in pubs and clubs across Britain. Their story is one of tragedy and loss, as the death of lead singer Ian Curtis had a profound impact on the band. In this frank and candid account, Peter Hook shares his inside story of life with Joy Division, offering a unique perspective on the band's history and the personal struggles they faced.
