Citizen Zombie, the band's first album in two decades, saw the original members reconvene to explore their signature sound with renewed intensity. The release confronts societal decay with a confrontational energy that revisits their early work's jagged rhythms and political fervor.
- The album was produced by the band themselves and John Husband, with additional production by Steve Osborne. It was recorded at the Vale studios in Worcestershire. Guests on the album included members of the legendary Sheffield soul band Positive Noise.
- The album marked a significant return for the band after a 22-year hiatus since their last studio album, 'We Are All Prostitutes'. The 2015 release was distributed by Freaks R Us.
- The album drew critical attention for its raw energy and continued relevance to contemporary socio-political issues, with reviewers noting its harsh, abrasive qualities and danceable rhythms.
The Pop Group formed in Bristol in 1977, pioneering a unique blend of post-punk, funk, and experimental noise. They dissolved and reformed multiple times, leaving a legacy of uncompromising, genre-bending music.
