Section 25 - Always Now
#411
September 1981
Section 25
Always Now
Genre: Wanna Be Joy Division
1.75 out of 5
Actually, it’s sort of simultaneous with Joy Division, no? It was produced by Martin Hannett and co-produced by Ian Curtis before he committed suicide.
Thing is, if you strip Joy Division of Curtis’s humanity and depth, you are left with a pretty hollow impersonation.
Section 25 makes me want to investigate all the other sections for something better.
The monotony, while perhaps a producing accomplishment, is an unwelcome experience to my afternoon. Looking at you, virtually ever track but, most notably, “Babies in the Bardo”. Ugh.
