The Pop Group went on to release 2 further singles, We Are All Prostitutes and Where There Is A Will (Split single with the Slits) and 1 further studio album For How Much Do We Tolerate Mass Murder, before splitting up in 1981. Mark Stewart from the band embarked on a solo career releasing his pioneering album Learning To Live With Cowardice in 1983.

The Pop Group reformed in 2010 to tour and have since released 2 new studio albums. The band will be touring at the end of 2019 and throughout 2020 in support of the album release.

"This is a record of dire necessity, armed for combat against a long litany of ills--none more than typicality." - Pitchfork, Top 100 Albums of the 1970s (#35)
