New Order are, indeed, from England. Manchester to be more precise. They formed in 1980 from the remnants of Joy Division ( whose lead singer Ian Curtis committed suicide on 18 May 1980 ), They continued to record on the Factory label, who had signed Joy Division, for years until Factory went bust. They are one of the most influential bands of the past 20 years because their pioneering use of synthesizers and drum loops spawned a revolution in Chicago, U.S.A called "House" music.
In summary, a TOP BAND!!
Hope this helps a bit. :D
Not who I was looking for, but thanks :o
