Hippopotamomus is the fifth studio album by British musician Momus, released in 1991 through Creation Records.
[4][5] The track was later reinstated on the Create 2 compilation as part of a 2018 reissue campaign with Cherry Red Records.
[7] Select's Ted Kessler gave the album a positive review, calling it "wickedly seductive".
[7] NME's Betty Page panned the album, giving it a rating of 0/10, labelling Momus a "perv" and "anal retentive", and taking issue with the album's themes of cannibalism, violence against women, pornography, paedophilia, and extreme sexual practices.
[7] The controversy stemming from Page's review would later serve as the basis for Amongst Women Only, a 1991 documentary directed by Nicholas Triandafyllidis centred on Momus's relations with women and accusations of misogyny raised against him.
