Picking up where legendary band Joy Division left off, New Order quickly became one of the most influential artists of the fledgling post-punk movement. On LIVE IN GLASGOW the band performs songs from every part of their career, including Joy Division classic "Love Will Tear Us Apart." This set also includes a selection of rare tracks from the New Order vaults, curated by drummer Stephen Morris.
Rising from the ashes of the legendary British post-punk band Joy Division, the enigmatic New Order triumphed over tragedy to emerge as one of the most influential and acclaimed bands of the 1980s; embracing the electronic textures and disco rhythms of the underground club culture many years in advance of its contemporaries, the group's pioneering fusion of new wave aesthetics and dance music successfully bridged the gap between the two worlds, creating a distinctively thoughtful and oblique brand of synth pop appealing equally to the mind, body, and soul.
