Godfathers of the enduring alternative scene, they reinvented rock in the post-punk era, creating a sound – dark, hypnotic, intense – that would influence U2, Morrissey, R.E.M., Radiohead and many others. This is the rollercoaster story of Joy Division – the friendships, fights, fall-outs; the rehearsals and recording sessions; the larger than life characters – told by the band’s legendary bassist, Peter Hook.   'Hook has restored a flesh-and-blood rawness to what was becoming a standard tale. Few pop music books manage that' Guardian   'An honest, enthusiastic account . . . it’s a window like no other into the reality of life in this most aloof of bands' Metro   'An immense account of Joy Division’s rise . . . having read Hook’s book, you’ll feel like you were the fifth member of the band' GQ   'A bittersweet, profanity-filled recollection . . . if you like Joy Division, you really have to read it' Q Magazine   'Hook lifts the lid on the real Ian Curtis' NME   'He's frank, incredibly funny, and it isn’t shy' Artrocker","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53236267843926,"sku":"9781471148330-G","price":9.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9781471148330_1.jpg?v=1782339456","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/hook-peter-unknown-pleasures-inside-joy-division-9781471148330","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
