Peter Hook-authored New Order biography forthcoming
Substance: Inside New Order coming October 6
Outspoken bassist Peter Hook will release a tell-all biography about the history of New Order.
The book will include outrageous anecdotes and plenty of geek facts for superfans. In his previous books, Hook has talked about the Madchester scene (The Haçienda) and Joy Division (Unknown Pleasures).
Hook is in the middle of a bitter lawsuit against his former New Order bandmates, accusing them of "pillaging" the group's name and owing him £2.3 million in royalties.
The book is due out October 6.
