The Pop Group - Y (1979)

This group is among my favourite aural challenges, oh man. A man named John Dougan described this particular album much better than I could via All Music Guide & Amazon:

"Emerging in the late-'70s post-punk era, this militant gang of leftist radical politicos from Bristol, England, specialized in a funk-driven cacophony of sound that was abrasive, strident, and ultimately very exciting. Railing against Margaret Thatcher's Tory government, the state of pop music, racism, sexism, etc., the Pop Group were not the easiest band of the early post-punk era to listen to, but those who made the effort were in for an interesting melange of primitive rhythms and avant-garde guitar racket." (Dougan 2008)

And there you have it.
