Its interesting at the very least, its cool that they use dub techniques to edit their music and at points its a nervous wreck of energy. At other points its a bit of a waste of time and feels like them dicking about. Its like as solid a 7/10 as you can get, but an important album to have heard at least.
Dylan Robinson
masterpiece

It sounds like The Birthday Party and Talking Heads on speed. I love it.

I wish I'd kept the magazine review for The Pop Group's Y as it virtually implored me to sell the last of my worldly goods if that's what it took to buy a copy. I wish I'd kept it because at least then I'd know the name of the reviewer from which I could have traced an address, paid them a visit and burned their bloody house to the ground!
I know for a fact that this album has only been on my turntable once before and it caused a mixture of dismay, anger, frustration and disbelief. At one stage I actually thought the problem lay within myself - I simply wasn't intelligent enough to understand what was going on. Never mind not liking the music, for the most part I couldn't even distinguish a discernible tune! For 22 years Y has become notoriously known as the worst record in my collection.
I suppose the closest band I can compare The Pop Group to are early Killing Joke - but at least they realised the principle of music was rhythm. I've no objection to the weird and the avant-garde but when it consists of nothing more than screams, screeches and arrhythmic drumbeats ("Blood Money") I fail to see the attraction. The band are so far up their own backsides it would take a team of the best mining engineers to extract them.
The only thing of significance is the album title: Y as in "Why the hell was this made!!!"

I thought it'd be fun and catchy like Trout Mask or The Modern Dance and some of it is, but a lot of it just seems boring and weird for the sake of weird
