  1. 8.0 |   The Independent

  2. 8.0 |   Mojo

    The Pop Group are back in full swing. Print edition only

  3. 7.0 |   All Music

    Honeymoon on Mars isn't up to the level of the Pop Group's finest recordings, but it's still punk/funk agit-prop that's fearless and unafraid to strike

    The Pop Group remain as danceable as they are confrontational

  5. 6.0 |   Spectrum Culture

    If you can handle the heaviness of it all, then Honeymoon on Mars is probably for you. Just don’t expect that you’ll be able to swallow it all at once

    Lacks danger, menace, and focus
