Peter Hook Says New Order Split


NEWSOURCEDOTCOM: PETER HOOK SAYS NEW ORDER SPLIT

New Order
have split up, according to bassist Peter Hook. Speaking to Xfm about his involvement in Perry Farrell's new group Satellite Party, Hook said: "I spoke to Perry [Farrell], and he asked me to play bass [with Satellite Party], as he'd heard about New Order splitting up. Well yeah, me and Bernard [Sumner] aren't working together." Hook later posted on his MySpace page saying that he was relieved to have finally told the world about the band's split.

No word on if this will effect the band making an apperance at the May 17th Cannes premiere of
Control, the new film about the life of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis.

New Order are said to have re-recorded a number of
Joy Division tracks for the film, along with some "incidental music."
