Bei wenigen Musikern liegen Bekanntheit und Einfluss soweit auseinander, wie beim kürzlich verstorbenen Briten Mark Stewart. Mit seiner Band The Pop Group gilt er als Miterfinder des Post-Punk. Nun ist er gestorben. Im Popfilter erfahrt ihr, warum die Musik der Band hörenswert ist.

“The Pop Group strode onto stage and ploughed into the opening song with such indomitable force and such sudden visceral rage that I could barely breathe. It was the most exciting and ferocious concert of my young life—everything changed at that moment”. -Nick Cave

Altijd ’n zware frons en een Hulk-achtige verschijning. De man was echt boomlang! Maar hij had het karakter van de Grote Vriendelijke Reus. Afgelopen vrijdag is zanger Mark Stewart overleden. Veel te vroeg. Hij werd maar 62 jaar.

Best Mark Stewart quote from recent obituaries: "Arguments are good". I definitely subscribe to this world view. I saw the Pop Group in 1978, supporting Patti Smith at the Manchester Apollo, the infamous gig when anyone who was someone was there. I was there. I got a shortlived boyfriend to pay the train tickets and I bunked in free by waiting backstage until the group arrived and then literally begged Patti Smith to let me in. She arranged it.
Ive still got the gig poster, but my poster doesnt have any pictures of Ms Smith on it, its just text (similar to this image), peeled off a wall in the pouring rain after the gig. RIP Mark S, their set was very impressive if you were 18 and fresh out of the blocks.

Sadly, it seems like listening to music by recently deceased artists is a pretty good organizing principal.

"Basically, the live Maffia experience was just like seeing Tackhead - i.e. a brain-pulverising intense experience, the closest music could get to all-out apocalypse and still be endurable - but with the addition of a front man who projected this incredible political / social paranoia vision which twisted the energy up yet another notch. He was a very focussed performer, he wasn't obviously in need of help to function, but he wasn't 'controlled' in the sense of being a cynical fake. Watching him bouncing up and down and calling out 'Operation Passivecation' had this amazing propulsive energy. There's no way the On-U story would have happened without him."
