About
New Order, Manchester's post-punk pioneers forging synth pop and dance grooves since 1980.
Emerging from the ashes of Joy Division, New Order consists of Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook, Stephen Morris, and initially Gillian Gilbert, later replaced by Phil Cunningham in 2001. Their sound evolved from dark post-punk melodies to an electronic and dance-oriented style. Key early releases include "Movement" (1981) produced by Martin Hannett and singles like "Blue Monday" (1983), which remains one of the best-selling 12-inch singles worldwide. Their catalog spans genres from alternative rock and new wave to synth-pop and electro, with multiple vinyl pressings especially from the Factory and Mute labels.
