from NOOL:

"I became interested in searching for more music with Hooky-like basslines and I already knew about The Cure, but I googled it out of curiosity and found this 2000 interview with questions from fans:

Here's the exact quote:
Quote:

How many songs do you reckon you owe to New Order?
[Anthony Black, Thetford]


Not as many as they owe to me. I think Blue Monday came out a bit earlier than The Walk but I wanted it to sound like the band Japan, not New Order. Simon Gallup and Peter Hook have got similarly aggressive personae on stage, although I think Simon is a far superior bass player. And the six-string bass was an instrument we both picked up at the same time in the early '80s. But I've never deliberately copied New Order.


Note: Hooky started playing with his 6-string Shergold Marathon before Simon Gallup, which later bought an Eccleshall 335 identical to Hooky's, and Smith is a serf-serving cunt. Cool"

Sugoi !!!
