Slicing Up Eyeballs recently chatted with Peter Hook about his upcoming tour of the U.S., during which he’ll perform Joy Division’s ‘Unknown Pleasures’; the acrimonious split of Freebass; and his plans to re-record classic Joy Division tracks for a new EP.

Check out the video for ‘Don’t Know What Love Was,’ the new collaboration between former New Order/current Bad Lieutenant frontman Bernard Sumner, Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard of electropop act Hot Chip and DJ/producer duo Hot City.

With Alan Wilder and Vince Clarke on board, Depeche Mode fans are abuzz over the possibility that all five past and present members will appear on disc together for the first time on a new remix album reported to be in the works.

On Wednesday, the UK arm of Converse will release a new track by former New Order/current Bad Lieutenant frontman Bernard Sumner, recorded with Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard of electropop act Hot Chip and DJ/producer duo Hot City.

It’s one of the more unlikely covers you’ll ever hear: former New Order frontman Bernard Sumner crooning Elvis Presley’s melodramatic 1969 hit ‘In the Ghetto’ in a new recording made by the singer’s current band Bad Lieutenant for a forthcoming charity album to benefit a U.K. homeless advocacy group.

Our friends at 24 Hour Service Station are providing us with three promo CD copies of their brand-new digital-only compilation ‘Hand in Glove: The Smiths Tribute’ to give away to Slicing Up Eyeballs readers.
