Peter Hook talks Substance, Longevity, and his Favourite New Order LP

from The Soundsphere Magazine Podcast · host Soundsphere magazine

True to name, Peter Hook & The Light (formed in 2010) illuminates a catalogue left to collect dust. With the colourful electronics of New Order came resistance to the band’s past life as Manchester’s finest post-punks. Upon splitting for good in 2007, Hook sought to reverse this trajectory through The Light. Consequently, the atmosphere of their shows is one of pure celebration; from Ian Curtis to Tony Wilson, Rob Gretton to Martin Hannett, Factory folklore comes positively to life.  More here: https://www.soundspheremag.com/features/peter-hook-talks-substance-longevity-and-his-favourite-new-order-lp/
