My vote is yes since I think this album is truly one of a kind. A lot of punk and post punk records at the time were starting to become safe, but The Pop Group went balls out experimental to incredible effect. The fact that so many of the songs are catchy while integrating ideas out of left field only helps its case. I also ****ing love the vocals on that record, they're very unique. It's held in pretty high regard in post punk circles and it definitely deserves its status.
