About
Section 25, a spectral force from the United Kingdom, carved their place in the austere corridors of post-punk between 1977 and 1988. With releases through Factory, Factory Benelux, and Rough Trade, their sound wove melodic synth textures with rhythmic experimentation, resonating in the 80s British underground. Always Now (1983, Factory) stands as a skeletal monument—its analog warmth enveloping the listener in a nocturnal embrace. The relentless pulse of From The Hip (1984) and the haunting echoes of Love & Hate (1988) further define their precise evolution. Illuminous Illuminae (1982, Relevant Music), released under the moniker SXXV, captures their exploratory spirit, a cassette whispering secrets in analog warmth. Collaborations with Factory Records, in the company of Crispy Ambulance and The Wake, shaped their sound—a rhythmic dance of introspection and innovation. Section 25's presence remains a skeletal imprint on the landscape, their austere sound a testament to their era.
