This Is P. I. L.

Public Image, Ltd., “This Is P. I. L.” ([self-released], 2012)
First P. I. L. album in twenty years, and I actually really like it. Chiming guitars plus elliptical, spatially skewed song structures plus a blankly bright surface coating equals a model of P. I. L. that encompasses their entire career. And Lydon is in fine form, ranting about drowning, lollipops and (yes) the need for utopia (who said he was out of surprises?).
