On Saturday, Public Image Ltd. will release its first new music in 20 years in the form of the One Drop EP, a Record Store Day release featuring four tracks off the band’s upcoming full-length album This Is PiL, due out May 28. We’ve already heard lead single “One Drop,” but now comes a second new PiL track: “Lollipop Opera,” which the NME premiered today. Check it out below.

I’m sure it means something to Mr. Lydon.
Nice!
Ye-e-eah…I love P.I.L, but this song sounds exactly like “Boom” by Flight of the Conchords. Trouble is; Flight of the Conchords is comedy.
I’m really REALLY trying to like this and “One Drop.” So far, I’m failing. I’m sure it’s my fault. I’ll try harder…
im loving all there new stuff, hope yer rockin at 100 mr lydon
His bshroom is clean, not even a sign of the flowers of romance.
Honestly, I used to be the biggest fan of PiL on the planet, but I don’t think I am going to bother with this new record at all. (Please no hate mail… but I also think his voice is shot)
sounds great to me!!! i have followed them since the start. seen them at least a dozen times. saw there first tour, caught them in sf. actually, saw them in sf quite a few times. (i lived in the bay area for a few years). loved them ever since and will continue supporting them.
