The group consisted of vocalist, guitarist and lyricist Ian Curtis, guitarist and keyboardist Bernard Sumner, bassist Peter Hook and drummer Stephen Morris (musician)|Stephen Morris. Sumner and Hook formed the band after attending a June 1976 Sex Pistols concert. While Joy Division's first recordings were heavily influenced by early punk rock, they soon developed a sparse sound and style that made them one of the pioneering groups of the post-punk genre. Their self-released 1978 debut EP ''An Ideal for Living'' drew the attention of the Manchester television personality Tony Wilson, who signed them to his independent label Factory Records. Their debut album ''Unknown Pleasures'', recorded with producer Martin Hannett, was released in 1979. Curtis struggled with personal problems, including a failing marriage, Major depressive disorder|depression, and epilepsy. As the band's popularity grew, Curtis's health condition made it increasingly difficult for him to perform; he occasionally experienced generalised tonic-clonic seizure|seizures on stage. He died by suicide on the eve of what would have been the band's first North American tour in May 1980, aged 23. Joy Division's second and final album, ''Closer (Joy Division album)|Closer'', was released two months later; it and the single "Love Will Tear Us Apart" became their highest-charting releases. Between July and October 1980, the remaining members, with the addition of keyboardist and guitarist Gillian Gilbert, regrouped under the name New Order (band)|New Order. They were successful throughout the next decade, blending post-punk with electronic music|electronic and dance music influences.cite web http://www.allmusic.com/artist/new-order-mn0000334193/biography New Order: Biography Ankeny Jason AllMusic 20 July 2013 In 2023, both Joy Division and New Order were nominated as one act for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.Cite web 2023 Nominees !
