New Order are a band formed in 1980 by the three surviving members of Joy Division. The bands classic lineup consists of Bernard Sumner (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Peter Hook (bass, electronic percussion), Gillian Gilbert (keyboards, guitar) and Stephen Morris (drums, keyboards). Gilbert left in 2001 to look after her and Morriss children and was replaced by guitarist/keyboardist Phil Cunningham. Hook left acrimoniously in 2007 and according to Hook, the band has broken up. However, Sumner, Cunningham and Morris have repeatedly denied that the band has broken up, and that if Hook no longer wants to be in the band, that is his choice. Hook has since threatened to take legal action if they attempt to continue as New Order.

Pioneers of dance music in the 1980s and one of the first bands to effectively and popularly synthesize keyboard- and guitar-based music, New Order hailed from Salford, England and Macclesfield, England, and out of the ashes of Joy Division, are noted as being one of the first bands to bridge the gap between post-punk and dancefloor. They were Factory Records highest selling artist; they funded Factorys famous Manchester club, The Haçienda. They recorded with legendary hip-hop producer Arthur Baker (on 1983s single Confusion and 1984s Thieves Like Us), and they embraced Ibizan club culture on the album, Technique.

Formed in 1980 by the three surviving members (Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook and Stephen Morris) of Joy Division after the lead singer Ian Curtis committed suicide. Gillian Gilbert joined in October 1980 on keyboards and occasional guitar. Their early music followed in the same vein as Joy Division, most notably on debut album Movement.
