Peter Hook Accepts Joy Division/New Order’s Rock Hall Induction Following Introduction from Trent Reznor

Joy Division and New Order were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at a ceremony in Los Angeles, recognising their lasting influence on post-punk, alternative rock and electronic music. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails introduced the bands, describing them as two of the most influential groups of the past 50 years.

Peter Hook was the only member to represent both bands, performing with Deftones and CHVRCHES singer Lauren Mayberry before thanking fans. Joy Division formed in Manchester in the late 1970s and released *Unknown Pleasures* and *Closer* before singer Ian Curtis died in 1980; the remaining members continued as New Order, later making songs including “Blue Monday” and “True Faith”. Hook left New Order in 2007, and the induction came amid an ongoing conflict with his former bandmates. The ceremony was recorded on 14 November and is due to air on ABC and Disney+ in December.
