Influential British post-punk band THE POP GROUP returns with their first studio album in 35(!) years. Citizen Zombie is the name of the band’s first studio album since their reformation in 2010 and the official follow-up to 1980’s For How Much Longer Do We Tolerate Mass Murder? The new record was produced with the help of Paul Epworth (ADELE, BLOC PARTY) over the course of the past two years and is set for a release on February 25th, 2015 via label ‘Freaks R US.’
A press release states: ‘Turns out, The Pop Group are still just as pissed off about everything as they were 35 ago and have retained the ability to channel that frustration through a lot of distortion and lyrics that will likely propell you into deep, existential crisis.’
