Factory Records discography


The following is a list of items with recorded Factory Records numbers. The list primarily consists of music releases but also includes promotional graphics, film, etc. However, the list was not confined to creative output. A party, a lawsuit and a cat appear on the list along with other miscellany.
Number allocation was only roughly chronological. Special numbers were reserved for significant Factory output. For instance, albums by Joy Division and New Order are typically cataloged under multiples of 25; the sole exceptions to this are two Joy Division albums: Unknown Pleasures and Still. The final recording issued by Factory, Happy Mondays' 1992 single "Sunshine & Love", bears the number FAC 372; nevertheless, a handful of recordings issued earlier have higher catalogue numbers.
After Factory Records declared bankruptcy in 1992, Factory co-founder Tony Wilson continued to assign Factory numbers to numerous events and magazine interviews through to his death in 2007. Other late-period Factory catalogue items include a film, a recording issued by another label, a poster for a 2004 memorial event honouring Rob Gretton, and Tony Wilson's own coffin.
Several numbers were multiply allocated to unrelated projects. As well, many of the catalogue numbers, especially those above FAC 330, weren't allocated at all.
For Factory Benelux, see Factory Benelux discography.

The Factory numbering system

The last digit of the number may designate the following : 1 - Factory Corporate, 2 - Happy Mondays, 3 - Joy Division / New Order, 4 - Durutti Column, 6 - Factory Classical.
The "FACT" designation usually denotes an album. The "FACD" designation is oftentimes used to denote compact disc releases of albums, though it is sometimes applied to LP and cassette releases as well; the designation "FACTUS" is typically used for American releases regardless of format.
Sometimes the number can contain a further insight:
