Bristol post-punk outfit The Pop Group are releasing a new archival compilation.

The Boys Whose Head Exploded has been put together from unearthed basement tapes recorded during the group's incendiary performances of late 1979 and 1980. 

The compilation also features a DVD featuring footage of the band shot by legendary director Don Letts during a 1980 festival at Alexandra Palace.

The bulk of the recordings comprise versions of songs taken from the band's second album For How Much Longer Do We Tolerate Mass Murder?, along with the previously unreleased '73 Shadow Street' and a cover of Glaxo Babies' 'Shake The Foundation'.

The band have teamed up with Pledge Music to offer exclusive album bundles – you can check that campaign right here. Listen to 'We Are All Prostitutes (Live Milan 1980)' below:
