Rainbows Through Clouds

Neil Jones on The Electric Pop Group's Popgirly

So the theory of Pop is something I’ve been measuring myself with for a while, yet still my editors elsewhere refuse me the right to use it with a capital P.

Pop always has direction with an easy sense of retrospection, builds new worlds out of past loves. It’s Bonnie meeting Clyde, Godard and Rohmer emerging from their own criticism to prove their honesty, it’s the emergence of rainbows through clouds, a beatific smile through tears, and for me at the moment The Electric Pop Group’s ‘Popgirly’.

It’s all in the P.
