Box Frenzy is the debut album of the industrtial group Pop Will Eat Itself. It was released in 1987 by Rough Trade Records, and re-released in 2003 with bonus tracks by Castle Records.

The track "There Is No Love Between Us Anymore" samples the songs "When I Fall In Love" by Nat King Cole, and You've Lost That Loving Feeling by The Righteous Brothers. Their better-known track "Hit the Hi-Tech Groove" not only samples the techno-disco song "Respectable" by Mel & Kim, as well as the Beastie Boys song "Rhymin & Stealin," but defiantly boasts that the band steals as many varieties of sounds that they can get to make their music, ranging from other people's songs to television sound-bytes.
