Named after a phrase coined by NME journalist David Quantick, West Midlands 'grebos' PWEI initially recorded thrash-punk material, but soon fell in love with hip hop. In 1987 they released the key track 'There Is No Love Between Us Anymore' - a grab bag of scratches, samples, guitar riffs and yobbish vocals from 'grebo guru' Clint Mansell. As the 80s ended, PWEI leaned towards more hardcore dance, with 1989's 'This Is The Hour, This Is The Day, This Is This!' album being their most effective outing. The Poppies notched up several UK hits, including 'Can U Dig It?' and 'Wise Up Sucker', but the band ran out of steam in 1995 with bassist Richard March enjoying some success in Bentley Rhythm Ace. Never the most sophisticated act (see Beaver Patrol for more details), PWEI surprised the nation by selling out a series of 'reunion' gigs in 2004.
