Via the release of the ‘One Drop’ EP last month, we’ve heard four of the new Public Image Ltd. tracks that will appear on ‘This Is PiL,’ the group’s first new album in 20 years, which arrives May 28 in the U.K. and May 29 in the U.S. Now comes a fifth new track, via Rolling Stone: ‘Deeper Water.’
In two weeks, Public Image Ltd. will release ‘This Is PiL,’ the reconstituted group’s first new album in 20 years — but in advance of that, you can check out John Lydon and Co.’s new music video for ‘One Drop,’ the album’s lead single and title track of the ‘One Drop’ EP..
With Public Image Ltd.’s first new album in 20 years — ‘This Is PiL’ — arriving at the end of this month, we can now bring you the record’s cover art as well as details of the U.K. deluxe edition, which will include a bonus DVD featuring John Lydon and Co.’s full performance at a London club last month.
John Lydon this week unveiled the tracklist for the first new Public Image Ltd. album in 20 years, a 12-track, self-financed record called ‘This Is PiL’ that will be preceded by the previously announced Record Store Day vinyl EP that will include four of the tracks earmarked for the new full-length collection.
On Friday night, John Lydon’s reconstituted Public Image Ltd. performed at the 10th anniversary concert in London for BBC’s 6 Music, and, in the process, debuted two tracks — “Deeper Water” and the single “One Drop,” which has been aired on U.K. radio — off the group’s forthcoming album ‘This Is PiL.’
John Lydon’s resurrected Public Image Ltd. today announced a May 28 release date for ‘This is PiL,’ the post-punk act’s first new album in 20 years, and also unveiled the tracklist for the four-song Record Store Day EP that’s culled from the new record and which will hit shops a full month earlier.
As promised, the first new Public Image Ltd. song in 20 years — a lilting, almost dub-ska track called ‘One Drop’ — received its worldwide debut today via Steve Lamacq’s afternoon show on BBC’s 6 Music. Check out the full track, which will be released on a Record Store Day EP in April.
