Extra-Infos: =10th Studio Lp For Lydon's Post Pistols Punk-combo=
Description:Re-issue - Back in print â?? from 2015. What The World Needs Now is a terrific record; more confident, arrogant, surprising, consistent and artistic than 2012â??s rather fine This Is PiL (which hewed just a little too closely to evoking the groupâ??s past), the new album validates the idea that PiL are a vital and evolving art rock band with an identity entirely separate from both the Sex Pistols and the more â??commercialâ? â??83-â??92 ideations of PiL. The Observer - =10TH STUDIO LP FOR LYDON'S POST PISTOLS PUNK-COMBO=
2015 release, the 10th studio album from John Lydon and his Public Image Ltd (PiL) mates. The 11-track album follows the huge critical success of 2012's This is PiL, the band's first album in 17 years. Commenting on the album, Lydon says, 'Buy now while stocks last.' Widely regarded as one of the most innovative and influential bands of all time, PiL's music and vision earned them five UK Top 20 singles and five UK Top 20 albums. With a shifting line-up and unique sound, John Lydon guided the band from their debut album First Issue in 1978 through to 1992's That What Is Not. After a 17 year hiatus, Lydon reactivated PiL in 2009. Last year the band returned to Steve Winwood's Wincraft studio in the Cotswolds to record this album.
Issued in a 6-panel clear tray digipak with a 16-page booklet insert of lyrics, credits and photographs. Artist name on spine presented as "Public Image Ltd". Recorded at Wincraft Studios, Cotswolds, 2014 Disc: ? &© 2015 PiL Official Ltd. Back cover: ? &© 2015 PiL Official Limited
"What the World Needs Now..." is a powerful studio album by the legendary post-punk band Public Image Ltd (PiL), presented here in classic CD format. The record captures the band's characteristic mix of abrasive guitar lines, deep, dub-infused bass, and John Lydon's unmistakable vocals, combining snarl, wit, and sharp social commentary. Across the tracklist, the songs move between driving, confrontational pieces and more hypnotic, groove-oriented moments, creating a dynamic listening experience that is both challenging and accessible. Lyrically, the album addresses personal frustrations, politics, and the absurdities of modern life, while the music retains the experimental spirit that has always set PiL apart from conventional rock bands.

As a CD edition, "What the World Needs Now..." offers clear, detailed sound and a coherent album flow, inviting listeners to experience the record from beginning to end. The production emphasizes the band's tight interplay: jagged riffs, off-kilter rhythms, and spacious soundscapes support Lydon's vocal performances, which range from spoken-word intensity to almost anthemic hooks. This release will appeal to long-time PiL followers as well as to new listeners interested in intelligent, edgy rock with a strong post-punk and alternative heritage.

Public Image Ltd, founded by John Lydon after his time with the Sex Pistols, is one of the most influential bands of the post-punk era. Known for groundbreaking albums in the late 1970s and 1980s and a long-lasting career marked by constant reinvention, PiL helped expand the boundaries of punk into experimental, dub, dance, and avant-rock territory. Their work has inspired countless alternative, indie, and electronic artists, and their continued activity underscores their status as a seminal, genre-defying band.

The CD is released by Pil Official / Cargo, a collaboration that brings together the band's official imprint with an experienced independent distributor. Pil Official stands for artist-driven releases that reflect the band's creative control and aesthetic, while Cargo is known in the music world for its strong network in the independent sector, reliable distribution, and support for innovative, non-mainstream artists. Together, they ensure that "What the World Needs Now..." is presented with care, authenticity, and a focus on quality for collectors and discerning music fans.

Valeriy R. - 28/Sep/2020 5 of 5 Stars!
The last album from Public Image Limited headed by John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten in his previous life). Cool post-punk with brutal vocal, freaky lyrics, really very impressive. Must have!
