NME reports: *Anthony H. Wilson, co-founder of Factory Records, has died of a heart attack today at the age of 57. Wilson is best known for signing legendary bands including Joy Division and New Order to his label, and as owner of the Hacienda nightclub in Manchester. He played a key role in the Madchester scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s, signing the Happy Mondays. Wilson passed away on this evening in the hospital after suffering a heart attack that his doctor said was unrelated to his recent battle with cancer.
Professor Robert Hawkins, his doctor at Christie hospital, told the Guardian: “It’s very sad. He died as a result of something unrelated to his cancer. His cancer was responding well to treatment but obviously did contribute to his poor health”. Recently it was recommended he take the drug Sutent after chemotherapy failed to treat the disease effectively, but the NHS refused to pay for the £3500-a-month treatment. However, the Happy Mondays and other bands he signed had started a charity fund to help pay for Wilson’s treatment. His family are reportedly declining to comment at this time, but thanked the staff at the MRI and Christie who have provided “fantastic” care for him over the last few months.*
MP3s: Joy Division – Glass + New Order – Blue Monday
This week Bernard Summer and Steve Morris made the following statement: “After 30 years in a band together we are very disappointed that Hooky has decided to go to the press and announce unilaterally that New Order have split up. We would have hoped that he could have approached us personally first. He does not speak for all the band, therefore we can only assume he no longer wants to be a part of New Order. New Order have NOT split up, they continue to exist”.
Meanwhile, Peter Hook shared this quote with NME last week (in addition to hinting at the split months back): “We’ve decided not to work together anymore. It’s been on-off-on for a while and last time we just went out separate ways.”
Should the band call it a day or keep hope alive?

The former Joy Division & New Order member speaks to XFM about his reaction to the Ian Curtis-based, critically revered biopic, Control:
“I really enjoyed it… But it was like having your heart stamped on. The weirdest thing was at the end, when it really hurt and everybody started clapping. It would’ve been nice to have a dignified silence.
“You’re sat there thinking “Fuck me I lived that!” It was like being dissected. And then I went to take a piss and Ian and Bernard Sumner were next to me… well the actors that played them and I was like that… ‘Aaaaah!’. That was surreal.
“The way I always like to look at it is that you can judge how good a film is by how many people go to take a piss during it, and only two people went for a piss – Bernard and a 70-year-old woman.”

Via ContactMusic: *NEW ORDER rocker STEPHEN MORRIS has been unemployed since the band split last year, because he isn’t qualified to do anything else.
The 49-year-old keyboardist fears he has been left on the employment scrap heap, because he has been a musician all his life.
He says, “I’ve been to the dole office (job centre) and I discovered I wasn’t qualified to do anything else.
“I see no reason to stop making music. I’ll just see what happens.”*

We knew this was coming… we just didn’t want to believe it.
Peter Hook tells XFM the following regarding Perry Farrell’s Satellite Party and New Order’s potential involvement in the festival: “I spoke to Perry, and he asked me to play bass, as he’d heard about New Order splitting up. Well yeah, me and Bernard (Sumner) aren’t working together.“
When asked if this split is similar to the one the band took nearly two decade ago, Hook says: “Bernard went off for a break with Electronic, but that was different. But it’s like the boy who cried wolf this time.”
I sense some hostility, don’t you? Either way, this is sad sad news.
