Factory

Still on a Manchester tip!

There is a shop here that unsurprsingly seems to have an endless stream of Factory records. I have a bit of a routine whereby I stop off on the way to the airport back to Belfast for a dig at the weekends. Recently I bought a couple of releases that I wasn’t aware of. One of those moments where you wonder why you didn’t know this stuff?

Anyway… It’s reminded me how ridiculously good, diverse and broad Factory and it’s offshoots were.

Five below that touch upon their genius.
