See Jungle! See Jungle! Go Join Your Gang Yeah, City All Over! Go Ape Crazy! (later retitled See Jungle! See Jungle! Go Join Your Gang Yeah! City All Over, Go Ape Crazy!) is the second album by English new wave band Bow Wow Wow, released in October 1981 by record label RCA.
The album has been described as a mix of new wave, post-punk,punk rock and dance.
The album cover depicted the band in the style of Édouard Manet’s Le déjeuner sur l'herbe. Posing nude was lead singer Annabella Lwin, who was 14 at the time of the album's release. Photographed by Andy Earl, the cover caused outrage that led to an investigation by Scotland Yard, instigated by Lwin's mother, and never appeared on US releases.
The album was released in October 1981 by record label RCA. It was the first album by the group to chart, reaching number 192 on the Billboard 200.
The album was reissued by Cherry Red in 2010 as a two-disc set, retitled See Jungle! See Jungle! Go Join Your Gang/B-Sides and including a second disc of non-album tracks, including the rare title track of the Teenage Queen EP.
In its retrospective review, AllMusic wrote "The results are mixed and you sometimes have the feeling that you are hearing the same song repeated. However, it's difficult not to find yourself drumming your fingers to the frantic beats".
All tracks written by David Barbarossa, Leigh Gorman, Malcolm McLaren and Matthew Ashman, except where noted.
