Factory Benelux presents Dark  Light, the brand new album by post-punk trailblazers Section 25, Factory workers since  1979.

 

Recorded in 2012, Dark Light is their first collection  of new material since the tragic loss of co founder Larry Cassidy in 2010, and  marks a return to the smooth electro and synth-pop textures first explored on  their seminal 1984 album From the  Hip. These echoes are amplified by the presence of co-vocalists Beth and new arrival Jo  Cassidy, and a sublime cover image by iconic and legendary graphic artist/designer Peter  Saville.

Much of Dark Light was produced in  collaboration with remixer Derek Miller (aka Celtic Beitmeisters ‘Outernationale’), and includes new  versions of recent single tracks Colour Movement Sex & Violence and Inner  Drive. Other stand-out cuts include future  pop classic My Outrage c/w otherwise unavailable track ‘Hinterland. which will also be made  available as a limited edition 7” single (7 FBN 62) to mark World Record Store  Day in April 2013.

Section 25 in 2013 are: Vin Cassidy, Bethany Cassidy, Steve Stringer and Joanna Cassidy. “Metamorphosing from  the most nihilistic group ever into progenitors of House, Blackpool’s SXXV are, inevitably, one of THE groups of this very post-punk moment” (Chris Bohn, The Wire magazine)

‘Past tense, future perfect.’
