Additional InformationPiL's first album in 20 years is one of their best -- an extension, not a replication, of their late-'70s output.
Reviews3 stars out of 5 -- "THIS IS PIL proves that the taunting weaponry of his voice is still a delight, as he drawls out sylllables like an over-the-top TV villain.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "The album abounds with aquatic metaphors, reflections of the state of the nation and even thoughts of final extinction...", "The songs ride skittering guitars and pulsing, understated grooves....This is far more challenging and seditious than any number of conservative retro-punk copyists.", "The nearly seven-minute 'Lollipop Opera' is equal parts nonsense and brilliance, the greatest evidence that PiL can still be a musical force taking a jackhammer to pop music's boundaries.", "A compelling listen. It wrestles with contradictions, sets off on seas of despair, spits like a camel and kicks like a mule.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Overall, it's simply a joy to hear Lydon in fine voice, getting stuck into thorny matters with his own unique, raw-nerve gusto, backed by a cookin' band."
