The already wildly impressive line-up for next year's Future Music Festival just got heritage listed.

Joining the likes of Aphex Twin, The Rapture, Skrillex, Paul Van Dyk, James Murphy and Swedish House Mafia, will be none other than Peter Hook's ex-friends New Order.

The iconic UK band, who famously rose from the ashes of Joy Division, have recently reformed without founding member Hook, who's been busy touring the Joy Division legacy with his band The Light -- ostensibly a band created solely to perform Joy Division songs away from the founding members. A move that his previous bandmates have been none too happy about, leading to New Order frontman Bernard Sumner saying that he could not work with Hook again.

Cue New Order "reforming" recently without him. The current incarnation of New Order will perform in five-piece mode, the line-up featuring original members Bernard Sumner, Stephn Morris and Gillian Gilbert (who is touring with the band for the first time in a decade), as well as Phil Cunningham and Tom Chapman.

Here's the five-piece playing in Brussels in October.
