Pop Will Eat Itself, Rescue Rooms, Nottingham - 20th November 2025
Quality from the Poppies
Our first time at KK’s steel mill but what a great venue, it’s s little chilly at this time of year but Pop Will Eat Itself sorted that out. A few band members were mingling with fans before the show which was nice. Onto the music and yet another great set playing The this is the day album in full with various other favourites to finish with. This is the fourth time seeing PWEI this year with Leicester next week to go to also. Go and see them, you won’t be disappointed.

POP WILL EAT ITSELF, KK's Steel Mill, Wolverhampton - 12th December 2019
(Not quite) Like the old days
Firstly, Senser supported, which was great having missed them first time around. Their album, Stacked Up, still sounds fresh today, so hearing those songs live was a real treat. And as for PWEI, well, I think it was the best part of 24 years since I'd last seen them so this gig was a real blast. The band performed well and the crowd dug it, but I still kinda missed Clint, but hey, you can't turn back the clock. Not to do the Poppies a disservice because they certainly had us all on board from the moment they kicked off with PWEIZATION until the very last moments of Their Law. Good venue, good crowd, great tunes, good time!

Great gig!
Good support bands! Great to see Senser! PWEI were good as always. Shame about the sound issues going on. Really like the venue!

Pop Will Eat Itself are a veteran alternative rock band and one of the defining forces behind the grebo movement, blending indie rock, punk attitude, electronic textures and pop culture collage into a sound that was unmistakably their own. First formed in (1986), the band now features Graham Crabb on vocals, Richard March on bass and guitar, Adam Mole on guitar and keys, John “Fuzz” Townshend on drums, Mary Byker on vocals and keys, and Davey Bennett on guitar and bass. Their music is marked by sharp wit, sampling, noise and hooks, paired with an irreverent, confrontational edge that set them apart from their peers.
Across eight studio albums — Box Frenzy (1987), This Is the Day…This Is the Hour…This Is This! (1989), Cure for Sanity (1990), The Looks or the Lifestyle? (1992), Dos Dedos Mis Amigos (1994), New Noise Designed by a Sadist (2011), A Lick of the Old Cassette Box (2013) and Anti-Nasty League (2015) — the band have continually evolved while staying true to their disruptive spirit. Known for explosive live shows and a refusal to sit comfortably within genre boundaries, Pop Will Eat Itself remain a vital and influential presence in UK alternative music.
