Peter Hook, as co-founder of Joy Division and New Order, has been shaping the course of popular music for thirty years. He provided the propulsive bass guitar melodies of 'Love Will Tear Us Apart' and the bestselling 12-inch single ever, 'Blue Monday' among many other songs. As co-owner of Manchester's Hacienda club, Hook propelled the rise of acid house in the late 1980s, then suffered through its violent fall in the 1990s as gangs, drugs, greed and a hostile police force destroyed everything he and his friends had created. This is his memory of that era and 'it's far sadder, funnier, scarier and stranger' than anyone has imagined. As young and naive musicians, the members of New Order were thrilled when their record label Factory opened a club. Yet as their career escalated, they toured the world and had top ten hits, their royalties were being ploughed into the Hacienda and they were only being paid £20 per week. Peter Hook looked back at that exciting and hilarious time to write HACIENDA. All the main characters appear - Tony Wilson, Barney, Shaun Ryder - and Hook tells it like it was - a rollercoaster of success, money, confusion and true faith. - Häftad, Engelska, 2016

'Genuinely funny; indeed, the story will keep you entertained for a very long time' Sunday Times Joy Division changed the face of music.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 - Häftad, Engelska, 2013

The acclaimed and wildly outlandish inside account of England''s most notorious music club, The Hacienda, from Peter Hook, the New York Times bestselling author of Unknown Pleasures and co-founder of Joy Division and New Order—a story of music, gangsters, drugs, and violence, available for the first time in the United States.During the 1980s, The Hacienda would become one of the most famous venues in the history of clubbing—a celebrated cultural watershed alongside Studio 54, CBGBS, and The Whiskey—until its tragic demise.Founded by New Order and Factory Records, The Hacienda hosted gigs by such legendary acts as the Stone Roses, the Smiths, Bauhaus, Grandmaster Flash, Run DMC, Kurtis Blow, and Happy Mondays; gave birth to the "Madchester" scene; became the cathedral for acid house; and laid the tracks for rave culture and today''s electronic dance music. But over the course of its fifteen-year run, "Madchester" descended into "Gunchester" as gangs, drugs, greed, and a hostile police force decimated the dream.Told in Hook''s uproarious and uncompromising voice, The Hacienda is a funny, horrifying, and outlandish story of success, idealism, naïveté, and greed—of an incredible time and place that would change the face and sound of modern music.The Hacienda includes 32 photographs in 16-page four-color insert. - Häftad, Engelska, 2017

Includes full set lists not included in the physical edition.
In this final installment of his internationally bestselling three-part memoir—including The Hacienda and Unknown Pleasures—British rocker Peter Hook focuses on the 1980s New Wave and Dance Punk scene and the rise of one of the most influential bands of the Second British Invasion: New Order.
1980. Resurrected from the ashes of Joy Division after the suicide of its lead singer, Ian Curtis, New Order would become one most critically acclaimed and important bands of the decade and beyond. With their hits "Bizarre Love Triangle", "Perfect Kiss", and "Blue Monday"—the biggest-selling 12-inch single of all time—Peter Hook and company quickly rose to the top of the alternative music scene. Widely regarded as the godfathers of electronic dance music, their sound would influence Moby, The Chemical Brothers, The Postal Service, The Killers, and other acts that followed in their wake.
Hook tells the complete, unvarnished story of New Order’s founding and evolution; the band’s experiences in the New York City club scene and rapid rise to international fame, its impact on house music, techno, and rave; and its eventual rancorous dissolution. Full of Hook’s "gleefully profane" (Entertainment Weekly) humor and vivid, witty storytelling, Substance is the most important and certainly the most controversial part of his story, emanating with drugs, booze, and sex.
Complete with timelines, discographies, gigographies and track-by-track analysis, and exclusive photographs and archival images from Hook’s personal collection, it is the definitive, comprehensive history of New Order and a compelling snapshot of the ''80s cultural scene in all its neon-hued glory.

The history and mechanisms of the convergence of ancient Aryan and non-Aryan cultures has been a subject of continuing fascination in many fields of Indology. The contributions to Aryan and Non-Aryan in India are the fruit of a conference on that topic held in December 1976 at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, under the auspices of the Center for South and Southeast Asian Studies. The express object of the conference was to examine the latest findings from a variety of disciplines as they relate to the formation and integration of a unified Indian culture from many disparate cultural and ethnic elements. - Häftad, Engelska, 1979

Tras el suicidio de Ian Curtis en 1980, los componentes de Joy Division se reagruparon para formar New Order, bajo el auspicio de su mánager, el carismático Rob Gretton. Durante las giras norteamericanas que cimentarían el éxito del grupo en EE.UU., descubrieron fascinados la emergente escena de clubs neoyorquina, con los míticos Danceteria y Paradise Garage a la cabeza. El excéntrico Tony Wilson, máximo responsable de Factory, el sello discográfico de Manchester que labró su éxito gracias, sobre todo, a Joy Division y New Order, decidió emprender con Gretton, arrastrando, de paso, a New Order, una ambiciosa reforma del International Marine Center para reconvertirlo en el que debía ser el club más elegante y sofisticado del mundo, a imagen y semejanza de los que habían visto en Nueva York. Para ello, contrataron al visionario arquitecto Ben Kelly, que transformó el espacio en una catedral de acero y cristal a la que llamaron The Haçienda, y que incluso recibió un número de referencia: FAC 51.Peter Hook, cuyas líneas de bajo en Joy Division y New Order son un referente de la música popular, narra con humor y un ritmo endiablado su experiencia no solo como bajista de dos de los grupos fundamentales del rock británico sino también como copropietario a la fuerza de uno de los clubs más influyentes de todos los tiempos. Hooky, que vivía humildemente con veinte libras a la semana, no pudo imaginarse nunca que gran parte de sus abultados ingresos tras éxitos como "Blue Monday", "Bizarre Love Triangle" o "True Faith" se esfumarían en ese "agujero en el suelo conocido como The Haçienda", tal y como lo describió el productor Martin Hannett, que abrió sus puertas el 21 de mayo de 1982 para cambiar para siempre el rumbo de la escena de clubs del Reino Unido. Y si bien al principio funcionó más como una sala de conciertos —allí dieron bolos antológicos grupos como los Smiths, Happy Mondays o Stone Roses—, a partir de 1984, DJs como Mike Pickering y sus noches Nude tomaron el testigo y empezaron a pinchar una ecléctica mezcla de funk, primigenia música electrónica e indie que revolucionaron la escena musical y plantaron las semillas del fenómeno que se conoció como Madchester. Para que la revolución acabara de estallar, ya solo quedó el advenimiento del Segundo Verano del Amor, de inspiración ibicenca, que dio lugar en 1988 al apogeo de la cultura rave y al acid house.Esta es la hilarante y desquiciada historia de The Haçienda, contada por un narrador de excepción como Peter Hook, que vio cómo la mala gestión, la violencia del crimen organizado de Manchester (rebautizada "Gunchester"), una administración pública beligerante y errores de amateur de todo tipo acabaron con la vida de un club legendario cuyo legado aún hoy pervive.
