Where's the Pleasure? is the second studio album by UK band Poison Girls. It was released by Xntrix Records in 1982.[3]

The album mostly moved away from the political topics of previous releases, focusing more on sexual matters.[4]

Critical reception

[edit]

Trouser Press wrote: "Subversa’s weary, whisky-and-tobacco-stained voice is a husky but serviceable instrument that perfectly suits the material and lends a tragic, poetic air to the record."[5]
