LTM is proud to announce a brand new studio album from cult post-punk group Section 25, who previously recorded four studio albums with the celebrated Factory Records tag. Formed by Blackpool brothers Larry and Vin Cassidy in 1978, Section 25 gigged extensively with Joy Division, a Certain Ratio, Durutti Column, New Order and the original Factory stable, completed two North American tours, and recorded keynote albums Always Now (1981) and from the Hip (1984) with Martin Hannett and Bernard Sumner as the respective producers. Their sublime proto-techno single Looking from a Hilltop remains an oft-sampled club classic. Although Section 25 disbanded in 1986, core members Larry (bass/vocals), Vin (drums) and Jenny Cassidy (keyboards/vocals) regrouped in 2001, joined by guitarist Ian Butterworth (ex Tunnel vision) and multi-instrumentalist and engineer Roger Wikeley. Although work on the new album was set back by the untimely death of Jenny Cassidy in November 2004, the group began gigging again in May 2006 and have since visited France, Belgium, Italy, Greece, Dublin, London and Poulton-le-Fylde. Part-Primitiv was produced by the band at West Orange Studio, Preston, in 2007. Stand-out tracks include Can't Let Go, Dream, Carbon and You Never Make Your Mind Up. As the title suggests, the new album combines raw post-punk power with retro-futurist electronics, including two tracks written and sung by Jenny.
