Section 25 is an English band formed in Blackpool, Lancashire in April 1978 by brothers Lawrence and Vincent Cassidy. The group got their name from a provision of the Mental Health Act. They joined Factory Records and were produced by Martin Hannett and later Bernard Sumner.

Unlike many of their contemporaries, Section 25 continued making music beyond 1982. In fact, they achieved international success with the dance hit "Looking From a Hilltop" in 1984. Not only that, but they also pioneered acid house before it became a recognized style.

In 2006, the Cassidy brothers revived the band after a hiatus. Sadly, Larry Cassidy passed away in 2010. His daughter Bethany then took over as lead vocalist for several years before moving on to join Sea Fever. Today, Section 25 consists of Vin Cassidy and Stephen Stringer as a duo.

Hymns From The Bardo is a collection of archival concert recordings and is the sister album to Jams From The Bardo released last year. A delicacy for all fans of the early days of Section 25 and Factory Records.

Section 25 formed in Blackpool,UK in November 1977. Initially they were a duo, consisting of brothers Larry Cassidy and Vincent Cassidy). In June 1978 they made their live debut with Phil Denton on guitar. Their debut 7", "Girls Don't Count", was released in July 1980 on Factory Records, produced by Ian Curtis and Rob Gretton of Joy Division. Joined by percussionist Lee Shallcross, Section 25 gradually evolved with a more electronic-dance direction from 1983 onwards, a process which culminated in the album From the Hip and remix single "Looking From A Hilltop", both released in 1984 and produced by Bernard Sumner of New Order.

This second iteration of the band also featured the Cassidy brothers' sister Angela Flowers and Larry Cassidy's wife Jenny Ross. In 1986 Section 25 fell silent for more than a decade, and reemerged with the album Part Primitiv in 2006. On 27 February 2010, it was announced that founding member, singer, and bass player for the group, Larry Cassidy, had died at the age of 56. Today, Section 25 consist of Vin Cassidy and long-time collaborator Steven Stringer.
