## Description

Product description No Description Available.Genre: Popular MusicMedia Format: Compact DiskRating: Release Date: 20-OCT-1998 desertcart.com Sex Pistols singer Johnny Rotten made a definitive break from his past when he reclaimed his real name--John Lydon--and formed Public Image Limited. He was no longer a token punk rocker, but an artiste reveling in his newfound auteur status. The first six songs of this collection feature this vision of the group: hard, uncompromising, idiosyncratic tunes that turn pop music inside out with devastating results. "Public Image" is the residual fury of the Sex Pistols' breakup rendered with spiky guitars and Lydon's patented snarl. "Careering" and "Memories" are skeletal art rock based on the atmospherics of dub music and perverse dance grooves. But by the Bill Laswell-produced "Rise," PiL was no longer a group but Lydon's personal pop vehicle. The music became increasingly accessible, allowing for "alternative" hits such as "Seattle" on college radio and other tunes that, while enjoyable, do not challenge the status quo as advertised. --Rob O'Connor

Review: Powerful PiL - This is one of those greatest hits albums that truly does deliver the greatest hits of a band, in this case, John Lydon's Public Image Ltd., a band that was once central to the nascent postpunk alternative rock world in the late 70s through 80s, but which is now almost an anachronism. Growing up in that era, being a big Sex Pistols fan, I eagerly dug PiL back in the day, even if I've mostly moved on now that I'm old(er). That said, this collection features the songs that can help people understand what the fuss was about with PiL back in the day. They're that killer blend of dark, techno, danceable, and incendiary. Postpunk pop (although Lydon would likely hate that labeling, the way he hates pretty much everything), but in the best way -- catchy, but with a killer edge to each tune. The music world has changed (some would say devolved) to the point where a band like PiL these days wouldn't be able to catch on widely (the XX are an example of this, in my view), certainly not the way PiL did. As a sampler of a once-great band passed up by time and space, this one captures the PiL magic that tracked so well in that postpunk era. I won't pick out particular tunes, because they're all so good.
Review: One of the better Hits releases out there - Like PiL, but not enough to buy all their releases? This is for you! In all seriousness, pretty much all the standards are on here, meaning anything you'd normally hear in a club (minus the club mixes) or on the radio, and a few more thrown in that are, in my opinion, just as good. A great relaase of PiL's work over the years. A really good Greatest Hits for your collection.
